OMG that was funny!!!!
Splitter you know I only know where I drove. Every customer you drove so i never remembered where we went lol
I was quizzing him yesterday on which way to slide tandems and what macros for what.
Tandems:
Tandem Axles
A set of axles spaced close together, legally defined as more than 40 and less than 96 inches apart by the USDOT. Drivers tend to refer to the tandem axles on their trailer as just "tandems". You might hear a driver say, "I'm 400 pounds overweight on my tandems", referring to his trailer tandems, not his tractor tandems. Tractor tandems are generally just referred to as "drives" which is short for "drive axles".

For what ever reason I kept thinking the tandems had to be in the 6th hole for California... But now knowing that they are to be slid all the way back makes so much more sense. One less thing to have to worry about at the shipper. The trailer handles way better too! ;)
Shipper:
The customer who is shipping the freight. This is where the driver will pick up a load and then deliver it to the receiver or consignee.
