    I would take an old T600 Melton truck with a single turbo C-15 6nz and a 13 speed any day!!! I have seen them for sale before, I can tell because of that frame mounted tool box. Good looking trucks!

    Got both my pieces unloaded today in WI. Parked at the Russell TA for the night and going to load up some counterweights in Joliet tomorrow and go home till Tuesday....... was originally supposed to pick up a 10' wide JIB but aparently it won't be ready to go till middle of next week, so they covered my permits that I had already ordered and gave me a very good rate on the weights. I have a load in WV already set to reload on Wednesday so I didn't complain.

    Hanging out in Raphine, VA at the Petro.

    I attempted to tarp the load from...heck ;)

    I tore a seam and punched/tore a bunch of hole and ruined one of my old tarps. Next time all electrical boxes and brackets will be removed and the CNC mills will be covered with moving blankets before loading on my trailer. Nothing I used on this load to protect the tarp stayed put. Good thing it's not raining ;)

    There's nothing like screwing up a tarp when it's not mine....oh, well ;)

    For over the last month, I have been living in my truck, at our terminal in Auburn, WA, due to a broken ankle. I broke it in Pueblo, but thought it was only a severe sprain. Delivered in LA and picked up an OD heading to Tacoma. By time I got to Tacoma, my toes were turning purple and I knew something wasn't right. Went to the doc after delivering and upon viewing x-rays he told me I had broken my ankle. Nothing quite working for a week on a bad ankle.

    I'm doing "light duty" in our shop and should be having my second cast removed on Tues. Hopefully I can talk the doc into letting me back in the driver's seat. Sitting here is driving me nuts.
