Now I'm drooling, Bruce. The wenches, I'm sure, will be lining up! Thanks for setting my sights impossibly high.

You can take a virtual tour of the truck I will likely be driving here.

I am much more likely to be driving one of these trucks:

That's cool, it'll give you a chance to save up the $400k for one like I showed you.

Are you a fixed scale or a roving scale? I seem to remember Arkansas as not doing fixed scales to try to keep us guessing?

Fixed scales ALL the way , if you roll across the I40 bridge going from Memphis TN into Arkansas , you will go thru one of our wiegh stations .

A little fun fact for you and ALL your trucker buddys , Portable scales ( typicaly a set of axel pads ) are a class 4 weighing instrument ( class 1 is SUPER accurate lab scales( reading out to something like a 1/100 of a micro gram ) , class 2 is normal lab scales ( reading out to like a 1/100 of a gram ) class 3 is typical industrial scale ( a 5000 lb scale reading out to say .5 lbs , and is leagle for trade ) a class 3L scale is truck and rail scale ( a 200,000 lb scale that reads out in 20 lb graduations and is leagle for trade ) a class 4 weighing instrument is for a ball park weight .

Those axel pads that the state troopers like to carry around are a class 4 weighing instrument , the ONLY reason they can wright a ticket off of these is because they are the STATE !!! You can NOT buy or sell across thees pieces of shit.
If you get a ticket from a set ov portable scales it MUST be noted on the ticket and you CAN question the accuracy of said scale , most judges will throw the case out if you start questioning the accuracy .
