    It was nice to meet you, too, Sheila.......BTW, that thing we have in common???....I would have liked to strangle it today.....Spent most of the day argueing that we could not drive 650 miles along a back country highway through towns at 45mph, scale the load, go through the PA mtns, around NYC, and into CT, with no pee breaks, take a 10hr break and still deliver the load by 9am tomorrow morning......ended up having it repowered at Bloomsburg, PA.

    Oh Yeah.......my old one that I fired several months ago.....she gets bored and then works weekends.

    We are having a wonderfully relaxing day......our new delivery was about 5 miles away......then we drove about 70 miles east to our new PU in Tobyhanna and are now sitting here waiting on the tire repair guy.....HVP load trailer has 3 tires with tread worn completely down in several places.....ain't even gonna haul this anywhere....LOL
