This was out in Philadelphia area 2 summers ago that truck in front of us got off the high way at the same exit we did and his breaks were smoking the entire way down the exit ramp.
That picture was from this trip:

They're building a new DC in Colorado, so getting closer.
Went out with someone and we ate there, she had a protein style, no buns, the burger wrapped in lettuce. She was hip to the secret menu.Mike2633 Thanks this. -
Since In and Out's fries aren't frozen, there probably really isnt' all that much frozen stuff. Probably a lot more efficient (since a front/back freezer set up is more efficient to heat/cool and to load than a side by side set up) to just put the little bit of frozen up front and work it from there. Fries are the real volume killer in the frozen section.
Chik-fil-a's (which probably do a similar volume as an In and out) used to get PALLETS of fries . 1 to 2 pallets just fries (48 cases/pallet) every other day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (CFA's are insanely busy). I had 700 case CFA orders. That's half the truck. TO ONE FAST FOOD RESTAURANT that gets an order every other day.Mike2633 Thanks this. -
So this week I was trying to get my broken down Wyse hand truck back to work. It had a flat tire and I finally got around to dealing with it. Well long story short, after an entire week of screwing around I ended up having to buy new wheels and went with the harder cell non-pneumatic non-flattening tires. Spent way to much time and money on new tire tubes trying to fix a tire I couldn't get fixed, so here's the new wheels:

Friend had a HF cheapo with firm inflatables. Asked how he did it, filled them with Silme or one of those. On my list to do myself.

I think he kept filling it until there was no more room, I'll ask him next time I see him. Your wheel was probably cheaper than that many cans.
Mike2633 Thanks this. -
Wyse is the way to go
along with the filled tires. (wheelbarrows, lawnmower, etc)Mike2633 Thanks this. -
The new hybrid solid tires worked very nicely today.
