    I'd love it if it were 70. I do have the windows open so it's dropping, but 80 is too damn hot for sleep. Especially as a fat guy.

    .... or buy the trailer, load it and the truck up as you normally would when heading out for camping (passengers, food, water, dogs, generators, propane tanks, Blackstone grill and all), drive to your nearest Highway Patrol or DPS staffed weigh station, and pull 'er up to the scales w/a giant smile on your face :thumbsup:

    PS>>> @GODZILLA you're more than just words on a screen to me... :rolleyes:

    Who gives a shit if something is in spec technically, that’s a long and tall trailer back there, gonna push the truck around. I don’t even understand how that’s enjoyable when you’re trying to go on a little vacation

    Invaluable is the proper term.

    Fine. If your correct you get a bag of Swedish fish. Wrong and you have to give up Swedish fish for 5 years.

    Over or under payload?

    Pretty sure if anybody is getting tossed down the stairs, it would be me. There is more death insurance on my head than hers…

    We're gonna need more specifics :boink:

    Are we talking about the AC in your home, your truck or your future retirement vehicle??? Either way no AC sucks :smash:

    It was hot AF today. This was in southern Colorado Springs at around 2:30 this afternoon.

    Wife just landed in Denver an hour ago and it was a heat blast from being in the Bay Area all week.

    Stakes aren’t high enough. I’d need compensation of at least 1 bag a week for the rest of my life if I’m willing to give up Swedish Fish for any period of time. And not those multi-colored bottom feeders. Red runners only. And a lifetime pass to the dentist - the fast pass kind where I don’t have to wait in line for months at a time. But I’m willing to negotiate on the laughing gas. (I hate that crap; reminds me of dying… but don’t tell the negotiator that. He might use it against me..).

    At home. No AC. Open the windows at night to cool it off, and close them up in the morning to keep the cool air in.

    Could you cover yourself in wet blankets and then run a fan pointed toward you while you sleep to kinda have that swamp cooler essence??

    I try to avoid the Tundras Live: Agree to Disagree… thread. Bunch a weirdos. Every time I wander in to that thread I learn something new - the wrong kind a learning that should never be uttered and you can never unsee…

    These are also the threads that give me pause when thinking of buying a used Tundra. Will my awful luck on used rigs persist? Am I going to get a truck that spent 80% of its time towing way overloaded? :goingcrazy:
