    I was told ride a little better and more clearance is why a former boss ran 24.5 tall rubber on the tri axle I drove.

    About $20 per tire. I just do the drives now but have had the steers done as well. I just don't let them sipe clear to the shoulder.

    Work for a day and get 400+ messages behind. I don't have words for @Dye Guardian , I just sold my last bike a couple months ago, not going to go into my reasons for it, my he RIP and prayers for his family.

    So, pays to be the early worm, checked in at 08:00 for my 13:00 appointment only to be told I have a 13:00 appointment and they were very busy so it would probably be after that. I was empty and gone at 08:11 with signed bills. Crane guy asks me what time my appointment is, as he's looking at my dock receipt with it written and highlighted right on top. I reply, I dunno, I think it's 08:00. I didn't see any other trucks waiting so I'm assuming 08:00 didn't show up.

    I headed home only to get a call when I was 10 miles from home telling me my Canada was canceled and I needed to get to Wichita ASAP. So I ran by the house, grabbed all my stuff, dropped the trailer at the plant and headed north. I get to Denton, phone rings, "make sure you go by the yard in Ft Worth and grab a new flatbed". F##C!, I turn around, go back to Ft Worth, get a flatbed, close up the axles, head back north at the wrong time of the day, take the back way to Sanger, get 50 miles into Oklahoma, phone rings again, load in Wichita canceled. So, I'm pissed, I park at the next exit and take a 10. I got up and came to Wichita anyway but have no idea what I'm doing. Supposed to pick up a super-load north of Akron, OH Monday but not looking like the 14 wide I was supposed to take to OH is going to ship in time for me to get there. I'm praying they don't bounce me with an empty flat into all the snow and ice!

    Turned up the heat in the shop and started the pickup. Guess I'll go see about getting the skiddy started and work on cleaning up this mess.

    Had a farmer come thru and ran a blade down the road.
