    At some point I’d like to have a flat fender with a 4 banger. I have a complete hydraulic 3 point hitch setup for one, like to set it up and hang a set of plows on it for the tractor show….

    Myself and 2 other trucks came around a curve and this had just happened. Went around him and parked against the guardrail and grabbed my flashlight even though I had put a warning out on the CB.

    Driver was still in the truck, made sure he was ok then directed traffic till backup arrived. Must have tore the oil pan up, all the oil is running across the road. WV turnpike south bound side…..

    Do any of you have a recipe for corned beef and cabbage that you would mind sharing?

    This was the veteran move. Most of the time you see someone pull over to render aid, they will park before the accident. That’s adding to the bottleneck. And then, when the first responders show up, you have to move to make room. Thanks for pointing that detail out, Redbeard.

    Good points I never really thought about.

    It must not take much to run contract freight for UPS. They are some of the worst drivers out there.

    I stay clear when I'm passing them, cause they are usually using every inch of their lane, and a bit of the others

    For the cabbage she tried something new recently that was great...sliced the whole head into wedges and placed on a baking sheet, spritzed with olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic. Baked until done. Had a nice char on the edges when done.

    From the freight I'm seeing, it looks like lots of projects are gonna be starting early. Stuff that usually doesn't start rolling till April already headed that way.

    Some of it never slowed down much.
