About the only time that truck aint running is when Im waiting for a load. If its running its moving.

I put it through some extremes last year. I was in Red Deer Alberta on week in Jan. -22 deg without the wind chill and in Daytona Beach Florida the next week +81 deg. What a difference that was.

Nope its a single rear wheel (11500 GVW) with 18s on it. Actually I average about 63 or so, anymore than that and my milage goes in the crapper. I get a solid 20 to 21 unloaded on the highway and between 9 and 12 loaded depending on what Im hooked to. It has the 3.73 rears which help a bunch.
