jon f mn: We are legal to 96,000. The truck and trailer both are tri-axles. The trailer has 3200 miles on it and the tractor has under 75,000 miles. So I can guarantee that truck and trailer are SAFE!!!!
The total State and federal taxes plus license fees for this ONE truck is right at $6600 each year. The extra fees to go from 80K to 96K almost double the cost of the state tags. Then the road tax on the fuel, $.325 per gallon, makes that go even higher.
I will guarantee that I had more rubber on the road than the fellows pulling BIG gravity boxes with their tractors. My per axle weight would be less too.
So to the ones saying I am not paying MY SHARE of taxes BIT ME!!!!!! My combined annual tax bill from everybody, state, federal and county is more than I made annually for the first fifty years I was alive!!!! I pay more in taxes than my youngest two kids MAKE each year and they do not have bad jobs.
As for them giving me a ticket. That would be pretty hard. The grain was not sold in my name and I do not haul to this plant any. So They have zero record of who or what I was. Plus the fellow running the scale told me he was glad to see a SMALL load. The tandem gravity wagons in front and behind me each weight over 120K each.
So do not worry fellows that think that what I did/do is terrible, I am learning to not post much on here. I have cut way back and I can see the need to post even less.

Today's Featured Article - A Lifetime of Farm Machinery - by Joe Michaels. I am a mechanical engineer by profession, specializing in powerplant work. I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
