Jokesters!! Every place has one...we just happen to have a few thousand of 'em!

I have not bought that system, but then again, we don't have smart phones. We're the last people on earth to have flip phones.

There's a thread titled "Haul Gauge", which is similar.

Wow!!! They are exactly the same with the exception of the name. Even the same screen on the smartphone. Someone must not have patented the idea.

I'm sure it's not accurate at all. For 100 bucks you can use cat scales many times and get accurate weights. Not only that but axle weights and pin weight as well.

True. $11 per weigh. Everyone here knows CAT scales has an app, right? Don’t even have to get out of your truck to run ‘er across.

Be curious to know your opinion Bill3Kirk. The gauge Haul thread seems to suggest taking your time with the calibration to get it right. Look forward to hearing your opinion.

I'm supposed to get it Monday. Plan to get it calibrated and get some weights. Then go to the local scale and see what I get. I'll post the results
