    Hmmm...custom art on a lowboy. I'd think you'd get a backache. ;-)
    Thanks for the great reply.

    Hey Quatto. Know a good beginner company since you are based in the same area as me. I was looking at SNI or Western Express. Thanks.

    I like Dedicated Farms out of Bellingham---New equipment, no slip-seating, regional runs (like I-5 corridor all the way to LA) or OTR, hourly pay, good people. When I worked for them they let me take the truck and trailer home and park it for my resets and so I didn't need to go up north to the yard. They have a terminal in Sumner, also.

    Other than that, I can't offer much since I don't know what your situation is. @Chinatown seems to have a lot of info on good companies. I'd ask him.

    there is a way to turnaround. Not a cul de sac but more easy to get back on the main road. There is a bridge near that area so you might want to check that height if your tall. Also I'm not 100% sure if trucks are allowed to park overnight in that street.

    I've parked there about 4 or 5 times before in the past two years and never got a ticket. That spot in technology drive is a "plan b" type of situation for me. Only if I really need to park somewhere and if I'm running out of hours

    That area is part of the City, not County, parking of commercial vehicles overnight is prohibited, but the Deputies are so lazy I doubt you will see one, let alone get a citation, someone has to complain first. Another good example is the Wal-Mart around the corner from there, you will get a citation for parking overnight, but the Wal-Mart off Golden Valley Road is in the same City, has the same restrictions, but you will see the usual homeless RV's in the parking lot all night, so the law is not evenly enforced.
