Yes, it's the DeRoma FKSW. I thought I had a better pic of it from the open house event. Gary Mahan is a very generous host and he treats the members of the ATHS Metro Jersey Chapter very well. It's an event I always look forward to.

Wow Charlie deromas fk, what beauty. I always loved that truck, especially the chrome tow hooks.

At some point it will change here. It's all about revenue. More permits and fees.

Just like Fl 70k on a tri but go to Ga and all you see is tandems and they are not big. Go to Sc and they have tris. Nc is weird Va is even more screwed up. Md has normal weights.

North Carolina I think you can run a little heavier? I know Florida was similar to Jersey. Virginia you got to run those quint setups right?

No most you'll get on a tri or more axles is 70k no matter how many axles there are in a straight configuration. Somethings have more leway and permits like the concrete pumps. tandem is 64k 20k steer and 44 tandem. This was told to me by dot but hey things change to.
