    Same with the old Apple Market stop in Winchester, KY I’ve stopped at all these years. Use to have a little choke & puke in the back you could grab a biscuits and gravy or sausage egg and cheese biscuit but not now.

    Fuel still relatively cheap at $3.09 gallon, added trash cans to the stalls for the mecacins to throw sh!!ty toilet paper in, hand dryer stopped working, hardly ever any paper towels to dry your hands, no squeegees at the fuel island, and the coffee right down sucks….

    Never heard of it.
    Can sort of see it's use for the ELD guy whose company gives zero leeway..

    I'm also city folk, & had to go ask around for a "decent" monthly rate 3 yrs ago when I got this twin screw. Ended up about 3.5' longer than Ole Buck & couldn't hide her & the 48' step behind the fence in my side yard anymore..

    For just doin a 10, I'm out..
    Could be worth a look if truck'n towards a vacation destination? maybe use it to find a spot let her rot for a week while hanging out with the family..

    Oh I got a pallet jack..
    54" Forks on that girl
    First farm load I done was like a monkey eff'n a football as they say.. Lmao :D

    Spinning around the 2600lb seed pro boxes as they're called wasn't to bad, but the 3500lb pallet with 60, 58lb sacks stacked on her was another story.. :rolleyes:

    I loaded a few of these up in a van once. With bracket probably close to 5k lbs. The poor driver trying to spin that around with a pallet jack probably hated us. Took 3 of us just to get it parked where he wanted it in the van.

    Saw a Cybertruck for the first time in real life this morning. Reminds me of something you'd have seen rendered in an early 1990's DOS computer game.
