Robert, where is my thumbs up button? I like how you've thinned out the ends of the cross members. As per original?

It always surprises me how overbuilt this machinery is. Bob Carriere at the Hammond Barn showed me some CMP trailers a year ago. Those beasts are solid steel bar stock everywhere. The load factor would have been 100% greater, if the makers had chosen lighter materials or thinner stock. It makes me wonder whether anyone at HQ was even slightly concerned about fuel costs per ton per mile.
