    I just cannot fathom the cost of repairs these systems require, nevermind the downtime.

    The worst part for me is I'm fresh off a 34 so I'm ready to ride... Truthfully though, I'm getting paid either way.

    At least the consequences are in the back of your mind. Some guys load 'em ride w/o a care in the world. I just can't do that.

    Just picked up my no tarp load from Indy to Chi in the rain. Coustemer was worried about the paper tag getting wet on the side of the sealed air cargo container. I was already loaded so I named my price to get her tarped. I only carry 4' tarps but made them work for 8'. IMG_2566.JPG

    Used to haul sugar up there to an ice cream plant, there's a Denny's with truck parking if you've never been.

    1981 model, with a fine tuned B model put in after the A got tired. 15 over and 3.55's. A true one owner truck. Still driven by the owner at 71 years old. We should all be so lucky
