    I don't know. His posts are usually about tankers and they're usually right to the point and accurate. Maybe he meant that post to go somewhere else.

    That's what I was referring to.
    A driver said he was enroute to Erie, I just wondered what he was hauling.
    My first driving job was tri-axle dumps.

    What's up everyone, fairly uneventful week here. I started out with some ridiculously heavy scrap from west palm beach and emptied that out in Pensacola, started up to the scale to weigh out and cut a steer tire, about an hour later I was fixed and rolled up to Elmore and loaded going back near brooksville, bounced down to Sarasota and ran that up to Atlanta, went to talking rock and grabbed one for jax, reloaded in jax and went back to Sarasota, preloaded in sarasota and will head back to ATL in the morning. Did some moto'ing yesterday and knocked out some yard work this morning. Seems kind of quiet in here lately, chime in folks:)

    Well I finally have time and energy at the same time to actually write something on here. Got my new trailer am loving it so far. It has been a slight learning curve going from a square trailer to a half round as far as finding the line of sight that tells you it's level. That's the only issue I have so far with it. It took me 14 days to et my truck back from the shop of horrors and then I got sick for 4 days so the month of June was a washout as far as revenue. I didn't see anyone I knew going to and from TX. I've been looking for @Trashtrucker1707 since we haunt the same areas but I've been missing him. The rest of you I don't know where you are but maybe some day we can all get together and have supper or something together. I hope everyone is safe and where they want to be for the 4th. Have a Happy and safe 4th. Happy Trails

    It's dead in here lately, maybe the heat is keeping everyone in doors. More of the same around here, running some north Florida to south Florida fertilizer the past few days, preloading for mobile on Monday tomorrow morning then heading home, @NightWind I'll be up that way Monday afternoon probably, hope the new trailer is treating you right.

    Howdy everyone, it has been hotter that heck here. I've been busy not just rucking but getting my new corporation set up and all the t s crossed and I s dotted. I swear there are more headaches getting it set up this time than there was the 1st time when I had NO CLUE what I was doing.
    The new trailer is EXCELLENT! Nothing has stuck in it, it dumps like a champ and I can't really tell it's behind me as it pulls super smooth. I average 29 tons every load which is an increase of one ton each load and adds up to some serious money over a week or month. So it's paying for its-self slowly but surely. I've been running from one end of the state to the other. @Trashtrucker1707 I've seen several of your company trucks but none will respond on the radio to me when I try to talk to them. I'll look for you Monday. Everyone be safe and post an update so we know you're still alive.

    Yep. A good high pressure fire hose is easier though.
