Just saw this on another site and thought i'd pass it along.

"For 72 hours, from June 6 through June 8, Federal, county, and local officials from all over the United States will be performing all levels of inspections at roadside, scale house, and port of entries. In fact, during the whole month of June some states and/or local authorities push for their own "special study inspection" that incorporates the annual DOT Roadcheck."

I heard they will be checking pick up trucks with trailers too...

I hav'nt put it on a scale... It is prolly pretty close... The good thing is all of my equiptment is rated for 15k... The air bags on the dually make it look very light.... I'm sure if the rear of the truck was sagg'n I would get pulled over for sure.....
