    I told my sister that I named my Truck … “Clifford the Big Red Truck” … she got the reference and a chuckle from it.

    I call mine Jimmy Stewart because when you want to take off or back up nice and easy, it hesitates, stutters and hops like Jimmy Stewart on a pogo stick.

    Right or wrong this is how I did it. I’d pull in the dirt lot there in red, drop my trailer, park on the street and walk into the office indicated there in blue and check in, and then pick up my preloaded trailer there in green. It’s a cluster fluff around there but it’s not bad. If it’s after hours you have to check in at the south office on Hansbro Ave. which is literally right around the corner and almost directly behind (south) of where you’ll be picking up your loaded trailer. They tended to load heavy on the back if I remember correctly.

    LOL … funny

    next time I’m bouncing around, that will come to mind.

    I always enjoyed watching Jimmy on any talk show when he was intentionally telling a joke that required a stutter to be part of the punchline delivery… swear he intentionally made his stutter worst just for the laugh… lol

    Jimmy was a General too, right? Not sure which Branch or how many Stars but I always respected him even more knowing that about him.

    He was Air Force/Army Air Corps. Can’t remember his rank, but his jacket is on display at Wright Pat. That dude was TALL!

    Gatorade Dallas...

    Would be the 4 Star General of Fusterclucks

    Even with really good instructions from @motocross25, still talked to 4 people and spent almost an hour and a half for a drop.

    The dude up at the backside shipping office speaks with his hands and doesn't use words. (No he isn't deaf, I was wasting his time CLEARLY)

    The guard that checks your trailer and seal on the way out acts like he's never talked to a human a day before in his life. It was worse than talking to a teenager

    Asked the guard at the drop yard if we could overnight park. He said no. Buuuuttt I don't believe him. Do they check?

    You had about the same experience I’ve always had as far as helpfulness from Haterade down there. As far as staying the night there I don’t know I always snagged it in the morning and boogied back to Edgerton. It could go both ways, they might not care enough to say anything, or it might give them an excuse to b#### about something and kick you out.
