Crummy, You're so lucky living in the most beautiful country in the world ! If you talk to sailors who've circumnavigated the globe, they can confirm PacNW is the place to be ! Operating a truck @ 210,000. lbs. on big hills must take some experience ! How do you know how hot the brakes are getting ? Maybe you should get a pace car to laze your axle's with a non-contact thermometer, then radio you when you won't be able to stop ? I'll bet the cops hate you, you could probably damage their scales.

I can't take credit for that- it's someone that's a friend-of-a-friend & we still stay in touch with what everybody is up to. They run WAY bigger stuff than I did when I was doing it.
