    You need to make like 10 times what we do to do this Reno run all the time.

    I'd be in an institution.

    We do pretty good awright. Truth is Reno runs have been drying up this year, only doing it once or twice a week now, and not liking it much

    When I was out with my trainer at my first gig, he said he had to unload a load of tires. Not sure why, it was an unusual event.
    By himself as his trainee refused to help. He said it nearly killed him lol -

    Problem would be finding someone who knew how to operate a board puller... LOL

    You only get a board crooked once... Then you remember forever.

    They're all interlocked like a 32,000 pound rubber chain.

    Rodent car tires are easy. It's the Wrangler LT, etc., that are the widow makers.

    You get 4 hours. You really don't get to stop. And like I say, you literally pick every single one twice, and do a 180 with them.

    1300 reps lol

    After a few loads, you start to develop a system and a rhythm. It gets easier and faster. The smaller car tires are fairly light, 14/15 inch wheel size. Just a lot of them.
