    Years ago when I was young & dumb.. and pulled for a big outfit in Co.I hauled a few loads of those Range Magots.. They stink they are dumber that a bag of hammers. And they are born looking for a place to die... unless you have a good dog or a stinking goat to lead them on the trailer its a battle.. 3 loads of them was enough in my life time

    I hauled a load of nursery stock in a refer once, never again! Went to a livestock wash out near Kansas City to get washed out. No other wash would touch it.

    To whomever shoveled out their trailer and left a mountain of #### a few months ago in a parking spot at a truck stop off exit 58 on I-95 in North Carolina, I'd like you to know that all they did was skid steer the pile into the woods behind the spot and now the entire truck stop has been smelling and swarming with flies all Summer long. Congratulations, it's not just the door swingers after all that ruin small mom and pop shops.
