    The Freightliner in SLC has a decent Mexican inspired resturant upstairs. All your troubles go away when you can bite into a smothered burrito for breakfast.

    Good luck.

    Hmmmmmmmm.

    Truck 2 has completed his mission through WHY-OH-MING and other various frozen tundra places a day early.

    I finshed a 5200 mile trip 2 days early through the frozen tundra and PNW ( A record that will never be broken ), but Casper wasn't really running that well.

    How is this possible?

    Too much technology and buttons? A good stout hand crank sends it out
    and the lightweight earpiece with cord allows you to turn and chat while it makes
    its way along.

    Ok, so my camera on my phone is a bit fuxored, but here's how we loaded the mini ex this morning.

    20200204_082716_HDR.jpg

    Up on the gooseneck, spun it around and up onto the trailer from the side. The JD CTL came in on a rollback, so he just backes up to my trailer and pulled it right on.

    I threw chains, strapped the steel down and came up here to Abilene. Got to the drop off w which was "ok take the exit where the flying J is, go S to the train tracks, go right and we're down here on the side of the road, you can't miss us".

    Unloading consisted of me backing upto a pile of asphalt millings and them pulling the machines off the back lol.
