    Me’s thinking the driver had a case of the sheetz and just made it to the boys room. I know I always got the squirts when I went there.

    By the way, reading the going on at Abilene, it sounds like the place has turned into a 3 ringed circus. Sorry for my peeps there, but based on what’s transpired in the last 14 months I’ve been gone, I can’t help but think they’ve brought it upon themselves. But, I think it has to do with the corporate business model out of Phoenix. Lucky for KSH, they were able to get rid of one group of liars and thieves and replaced them with ones that have no problem performing oral pleasure on upper management to climb the corporate ladder.

    If so, he chose a spectacularly poor way of going about it. There's a bathroom in the main building not far from the guard shack, whereas this dude was strolling down the road in front of the building towards Parts Unknown.

    These Swift trailers with the landing gear crank on the passenger side are weird.

    Probably designed to make the driver walk around more in hopes that they might notice a problem.

    They are done like so if you have to drop the trailer on the side of the road you are not standing on the traffic side of the trailer

    That’s what I heard about that.

    I can believe it, since it’s a wonder some of my coworkers ever see the passenger side of the trailer.

    Imagine a business operation with so many “opportunities” to end up with a trailer along the side of a road, that this design feature becomes a necessary safety requirement … LOL

    Home another week. Carvana had to reschedule delivery of my jeep til today from last week and only got seven days to return it and exchange if anything wrong so getting a ppi done this week on it. Bought a 2018 rubicon, V6 six speed manual tranny, dark grey with black interior and red accents. Brand new bf goodrich AT mud tires, winch bumper and only 5,281 miles on it. Drives good so far. Back out the 11th but gotta be back the 31st to close on the house I just bought. Got a one story split level 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath with detached two story garage and small back yard. Mainly got it for the garage, thinking of finishing and sound proofing the upper floor turning it into my personal music studio. Got a good price on it, older woman needed to down size. Vetern’s United folks are fast and efficient.
