    Nice day today. Spent today renewing IRP... pain in the ###. After getting all paperwork figured out can renew online. Then you have to send in 2290 and proof paid taxes on vehicles. Then they will mail your cab card out to you, have to pay for tags too.

    Could be worse...I'm lucky I got the money to buy tags. I'm thinking some truckers won't be that lucky.
     
    dairyman, HwyPilot and RW. Thank this.

    Thanks for the reminder on the IRP, I need to work on that. The last few years I've sent our info and paperwork into the Midwest Truckers Assn, and they go to the Sec of State for you. Seems much simpler, and if there's a mistake, they catch it.

    Another foggy, gray, sloppy mess of a day here. Seemed like the gravel roads and parking lots started getting soft this afternoon. The trucks are a slimy mess, but there's no point in hosing them off, it would take more time to do it than the time they would stay clean. I hate these days of winter!:biggrin_25513:

    Yep, that's a problem. When I was younger if I didn't eat I would lose weight. Get older it doesn't come off near as fast.
