Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

They just don't know what a butt full of rock salt feels like. Get the scattergun and enlighten them.

 

Too many trucks and not enough work...it's probably going to stay like this until harvest - if there is one.

 

You guys get any rain in Kansas? We had some lite flooding due to the city not keeping the ditches clean. The shop I have is down town next to the creek and what a mess. The doors are sealed good so the only water that got in was around the walk in door but a lot of debris including junk car tires and just crap all over the parking area. It came down fast and had about a foot and half of water. I found one old white wall car tire that washed ashore if anyone needs it. lol

 

I had a real good week and next week looks dead, so Monday morning I will be on the phone seeing what comes up. Maybe go on vacation, get on the bike and make a trip to Kansas in search of big shiney large cars. I could start in Anthony then up to Goddard for the "Elite Peterbilt Bulk Hauling Fleet" and then up to Hutch to see a true proffesional.

I paid $3.60 a gallon at the Ampride in Meno, OK today, that is the cheapest I have seen it.

 

Speaking of trucks and hoppers. I was sitting here thinking about some fleets that have come and gone that I use to run with or seen around back 15 or 20 years ago. There was one that was called Phil Blocker from Kansas that seem to haul a lot of mids and other things, I haven't seen his name on a truck in years. Then their was Briggs from Emporia are they still around? There were others but trying to remember the names

 

Glad to hear ya'll are getting a little rain,is it gona be in time or enough to save much of the wheat crop? I talked to a bullhauler at the Pilot in Shepherdsville the other day that said the crop looked rough.

Fueled in D-ville yesterday,$3.649. Cheapest i've bought in a month.

Had a random ''p test'',first time i have had one that i was'nt actually busy. I swear,between the emptying all your pockets,leaving your hat and everything else in the dang 'lock-box'',i 'bout feel like a convicted criminal every time i get pulled for a test anymore. Some of these ''tech's'' that do these test's try to make you feel like a piece of crap,any of ya'll ever feel that way,or did i just get a ''tech'' that was having a bad day.

Ya'll have a good weekend,i'm gona go wash the truck/trailer so it can get muddy again next monday. Tallest corn i've seen is 3 inches tall,it's gonabe a late harvest around here,that's for sure.
