if you shift like have a surging load all the time, even when you dont, you will get better fuel mileage and you wont have to keep learning how to drive when you get one of those loads.

No question- I'm a better, smoother driver for having pulled a tank AND I give every tank I see on the road extra space & respect.

I hauled some fertllizer a few months ago, it weighed 17 pounds a gallon, had 4100 gallons in a 6500 gallon smooth bore tank. went from California to Memphis. what a ride!!

I bet your chiropractor made a few bucks on that one!

One more very important thing, NEVER pick your nose while pulling a surging load, when the surge hits the front, you will poke a hole in your brain..

That's why I've gotten more stupid!! ROFLMAO!!!!!
