Now your talking about 100 percent of the LTL commercial truck owners and operators you see every day out here on the road moving something down the highway. And we do it with our LDTs for hundreds of thousands of miles and we have a safer safety record than OTR owners/operators.
If we can use the trucks axle ratings to legally/safely carry payloads then one would think it would be safe for RV owners to carry their payloads also.
Again, thank you for your response. I just wasn't sure what "LTL" and other abbreviations (LDT and OTR) meant, so I don't know what to do with this. Any help, please?
Thanks,
