    Sorry to hear that, Smurfette!

    Skunktruck, Smadronia, Chromedome, and all you other old timers, here is a blast from the past. It's the poster they used to sell in the Simon Store, before Central bought us:

    I still run into drivers all the time that were working for them when they sold.
    Found one just the other day at Heartland.
    I have not seen an old skunk trailer looking that good in a long time. Too bad you cannot see the number. Probably like 52000 or so.

    No Unfortunately They said that there was no way that I could get unloaded on Friday Instead of Sunday. So I'm at a truck stop just south of my drop. Then about 80 miles from where I'm at now I have a pick up going to Oklahoma City. Not a big deal I'm watching the refer and I filled that Tank up. I'm not dropping the trailer there anyway at my pick up I am so if I need more fuel before then Ill let dispatch know there is a pilot close that I could fuel it at before I pickup on Sunday

    So did did Simon really sell?
    I had heard that because of the guy that tried to make the California State Capital a drive thru, they had to file bankruptcy and change the name.
    Anyone know for sure which is true?

    Both, Bankrupt and sold.
    They did sell. Owned by Jerry now, the same guy that owns Swift.
    Actually I heard it was like a present to his daughter or something, but he still owns most of it.
