    I should have dropped by and had some homemade ice cream and we could have set out on the front porch and ate it like real men. lol

    Have you ever hauled for CSC Commodities? I unloaded at their mill in Fountain Run, KY today, they have a pretty good size operation and unload 24/7. We had 4 trucks in their today and their were two more coming in as I was leaving.

    I was looking on the map to see where you live and I was in your neighborhood a few weeks back and loaded tire chips at SMS Tire Recycling in Brodhead.

    Sitting in Sparta, KY at the moment and it is 17 degrees.:biggrin_25521:

    I don't have specifics, but from my previous vehicle sales experience 10 yrs old would have short term financing.

    The only time I ever used anti gel was when I ran trucks with no tank heaters or I was running to Canada. I always figured I didn't need it unless it was 0 or below.

    I have only geled up one time in my life and that was on Hwy 96 by Sheridan Lake, CO at midnight in a old 84' Pete 359 with a load of cows on back in 92' and after what I went thru I said it will never happen again.

    Are we ever going to see above freezing temps? I got out of my truck this morning and got a brain freeze and it hurt and my tarp was froze and stiff. At least I am loading and heading south but it is still cold where I am going.

    It's going to get better. 39 out, which is quite warm considering what we had.

    Been sitting here so long I feel like I already have... Told the farmer where I delivered "ummm Sir,,, You do know that you are allowed to move to a different state without the need for government documents... Right?" :biggrin_2559:

    I'm still looking for a place in AR.
