    I about gave my dad a heart attack this morning. Both of us were going to the same place, he had a 10am I had the 11. I've been there once before knowing it was pointless going early. He got there about 830, I roll up around 1030 and see he's in a door. I got the door right next to him.

    He was sleeping in the seat but looking in the truck you would think he was just leaning on the window just looking at his phone. I thought he was awake Lol so I jump up on the step and say "hey", he about jumped out of the seat. You ####er

    Edit: they started unloading me 1st when he was already in the dock for 1.5hr+ :D Both of us got done right around the same time

    Yep not legal enough to join. You could with a guardians permission right?

    Now you have a cleansing of the armed forces going on for political views. Not right

    Oh okay. I appreciate the kind words about the truck. Thought maybe you were a member of the Aqua park down the road.

    Thank you sir! I really enjoy that truck, but she has been a pain here lately. Got me second guessing being an O/O.

    Yes sir, I run them in Bridgestone. I have looked at them Continentals. Do they wear well? I know it’s hard to keep edges on these Bridgestones. I don’t have a dump valve either. You’re right, would be nice to have the extra cushion for the days you got to step out and run.

    Not really, just a little banged up. Some scraps and gouges. Along with a dented in rail in one spot where the joints came down. He tried to use my stakes to back 4 joints off. It happened before I could stop him. Just a kid....who prolly had about 10 hours of total time on that telehandler. He felt like crap and offered to pay for the stake. I'm not going to take that kids money. Told him to use it as a learning experience. Just glad it was the front and not the back. My luck it would have taken out my box on that side. Lord knows I'm not finding a new one of those. So, I consider myself lucky.......
    I guess.
