    Was leaving just as this guy was checking in...

    Shipper: "Picking up or delivering?"

    Driver nods and smiles

    Shipper (louder): Are you picking up or delivering?

    Driver: 01234567

    Shipper: Is that a pick up number?

    Driver: 01234567

    Shipper: Where are you going?

    Driver: yes



    Something to think about next time the broker says "we move these all the time for..."

    What in the hell is going on here, it has to be a joke. His top stack is dangling, side fairing is ####ed from Jack knifing, trailer is more raggedy then my ex wife.

    Holy hell.

    Is that a pecker drawn on the piece of paper covering the DOT number? His steer tires are bald too.

    Smoothie ultra low rr steers, Poughkeepsie power muffler. Definitely a fuel mileage hawk. Forget it double yellow you can't compete with this excellence. Give up now before you lose it all.
