    Lot of nice Trucks up there. Ripon has an annual Truck show and parade. A few from Michigan are always there. Other Truck show in UP of Michigan is a popular event. Never been to either. My Egos not big enough to attend.

    No need for expensive Dealership inframe. $20 or less, at the right shop.

    Delivered to Sygma in Charlotte NC. Easy place to deliver to. All food warehouses should be this way.

    So much for the heat wave we had, 4F this morning. Spring is only 5 weeks away (supposedly)

    It’s a balmy 14 degrees this morning here. I caught a news snippet about the weather and the concern about the next storm that could affect 20 million people. Why would anyone that lives in the northern parts of the country be surprised by snow in the middle of February?

    This was the good part of 40 yesterday, the flatbed and I went across from Memphis, but it’s supposed to have more ice coming in, I’m thinking about 9 heading on home, I don’t want to be stuck 125 miles from home and that’s why I took that reload back here from GA anyway, but they have in formed me that they have 4 more loads I could go deeper in to the Ice, or to Dallas and play in the crazy people ice, or Colorado, which I told them my map ends at Kansas/CO line.
    I’m still waiting for daylight, I’m not starting like yesterday at 0400 on it, because there is no need

    We here in Maine are not. We are surprised at the news acting like it is some horrific thing. I mean seriously! So what! We get 6 inch snow fall all the time. We get concerned when its 2 feet deep in one snowfall. Yet these others where southerners are concerned about a dusting? What a joke!

    I worked/lived in west Texas. It they said there were three snow plows in the area owned by the state. For like a radius of 250 miles.

    There's also the MAJOR difference of an ice storm vs snowstorm.
