    Dan, what you said is very true. I understand that they are all little things but I was just following instructions. I doubt that anything will be said to the driver that dropped the trailer....nor do I really care. If he wants to keep 1000 blocks, more power to him...but take your #### with you! I am not anyone's mother, I don't want to clean up after anyone....
    Actually, the idea of a preloaded flatbed trailer is stupid IMO. It would be different if all we did was drop/hook, but swapping all our equipment from one trailer to the other creates more work for us. And a drop/hook where we leave our equipment in the trailer just opens the door to another rash of problems with getting junk equipment.
    I found some very unprofessional electrical repairs on the trailer so it probably was working when he dropped it....and the way some of these yard jockies pull the trailers around...anything is possible.
    It's all good....rant over

    Different subject guys. What's the best way to polish your wheels to make them shine like chrome? What kind of polish do you think is the best and why? Thanks for your help guys.
    Sorry to see you go Dan, but understand your reasons.

    Just met CaptainX3 at the Gary yard. And Sewerman stopped by for a minute today too. That makes 3 of you all that I have met out here now, and of course I already knew Sarge. Maybe if I keep hanging out at the Gary yard waiting for my trailer lights to be fixed oh say 3 times each week, I can meet all of you within a few weeks maybe....

    It was good to meet you in person! Sorry I'm so sick or I'd sit and chat longer lol.

    It's kinda surprising we're all meeting at the Gary yard... Especially since sewerman has been working very hard to ban TCD trucks from there ROTFL :)
     
    jxu417 and sewerman Thank this.

    One of your TCD brothers seems to have gotten lost and found his way into the Laurinburg yard. At least he was smart enough to park around the edge instead of in the middle with all the glass haulers.
