    Just got a new toy to forget about all the problems for couple of minutes.

    btw. seems like all the problems we are facing are slowly fading, you can order new trucks and pick them up in couple of months. This Ducati was 2/3 of price since previous owner couldn't make payments (economy is really going down).

    Diesel has dropped $.2/gallon here since last week.

    I just hope we gradually return to normal (whatever that is, pre-covid I guess) rather than having a complete collapse of the economy.

    I think that economy is going to collapse anyway. But honestly, this is only way for things to go back to normal.

    9 times as long as it would take to get diesel for 1,000 miles. Like I said, 45 times longer than fueling a diesel.
     
    Oxbow and Gearjammin' Penguin Thank this.

    About 35 years ago I took this photo in Sweden. A Volvo F89 for transporting reindeers.
