    Colton ? Where we stopped at a large Chevron Truck Stop going in; to reconnoiter, shape us up to then pick up the San Bernadino Freeway to wend on to 5th and Almeda to Beneke's warehouse. Where I saw my 1st 400 Cummins in a yellow cabover Diamond T.
    Pine Bluff Transformer; out of PB AR, driven by a dude called "Wild Bill".

    Add
    CB handle "Wild Bill", drove a cabover Diamond T for Pine Bluff Transformer out of Pine Bluff, AR in latter 57.
    Wheeled into the big Chevron stop in Colton, CA. Fell out of his big yellow truck and strolled over to a heavily lit and chromed out KW.
    Loudly allowed he would like to have have his truck but keep his motor. Snarky question, what kinda motor you got?
    Wild Bill sweetly smiled at him and said; a 400 Cummins. When the guys mouth reopened it was to ask. Can I see it?
    Cab tilted, group gathering. (Engine had not been out long or very few installed-Kinda rare.)

    They were running two conventional Diamond T's with 350's from Pine Bluff in to FLorida. If sitting in Columbus, MS, you let them leave
    first, and last time you saw them was when they pulled off the scales headed east. (It don't take lot of transformers to make a scale load.)

    yeah. I call it storage fee.
    And they pay full rate to bring it back. So storage starts when I get home.
