    All good, did not know the back story.

    That's kinda what I was thinking. Both well maintained with paperwork it's got some value.

    Was actually thinking about chatting with the local KW dealer about a custom built T990 orT680 for spring delivery.

    Something to keep cash flow positive and me out of trouble for a couple of years.

    On a different subject.... Borowed the neighbors Kubota 235, Getting the job done slowly but it's just a bit small for me.

    Kinda like a Honda 600 car.... the one in the back of the pickup.

    Should have specified Spring 2022 delivery.

    Still not totally sold on the idea.

    Would prefer the sales folks talk me out of it.

    Those truck payments are more than my house payments. That includes the property tax and insurance.

    You can tack on another $800 month if you're coming back to Landstar just for insurance.

    But the house basically makes $100 day. 365 days a year. Does nothing.
