    I used to have a dewalt battery powered grease gun when i was running mowers and tractors at the golf course.. The one mower had over 80 zerks on it. And I greased it once a week. After the first couple times with a regular pump gun. I sweet talked the boss man into buying a battery powered. Man oh man. Made life so much better.

    . Pfffftt this thread just requires a healthy sense of irreverence with a dash of fondness for kitty’s.

    Check for : Rcranch81. Lady from Canada was on last year, bought herself a nice used Western Star, drove it home and dropped off the thread.
    Appeared on another or two threads a time or two then dark. You might research and awaken.

    Eggs... My company used to do a dedicated egg run from northern UT to Pasco, WA unload and reload at in the same dock with different eggs going right back to UT. We quit doing it several years ago, just before I started with them I think. We have still been doing some other runs for the same Egg farm since but not the dedicated one. Well apparently they needed some help and we stepped in to fill the breach.

    I delivered the load to Pasco today and reloaded heading right back to where I first loaded. Tomorrow I will deliver and reload another load to Pasco... But I will be handing the load off to another driver to take to Pasco.

    Yeah it didnt look like a very truck friendly place... The commercial area where all the truck washes and the J is located looked like something from 1975.

    I luckily made it back to ID for the night. Currently posted up at the Stage Stop. Ya know the best thing about the Stage Stop, besides the food??? The parking lot doesnt smell like piss, but instead smells like diesel smoke and cooking grease... Just as any decent truck stop should.

    She seemed like a pretty grounded gal, good head on her shoulders. I was privileged enough to have coffee with her one morning in Billings, MT a year or 2 ago.
