    Oh, the QC will come up with a big red exclamation point on your behalf, I believe. I'm sure we can ask some of the poor linehaul guys how that works. There was a poor FedEx stuck in the median along 25 headed toward Cheyenne in the midst of all this wind. :(

    They used to do this, but they had to stop, Iowa and Kansas were complaining about the non-native trees blowing in

    How can you not see this sign? Saw at least 5 flipped over trucks and RV's on I-80 in Elk Mountain area last week.

    People don't know what 'light' means. Apparently, it's the weight equivalent of an unladen swallow.
