    The jeep will be decked - just point it on the right direction and don't back up.

    That is what sucks about San Leandro - have to break the trailer on the street, pin the booster and then back the mess over the curb to the "unloading" area.

    Really have to do it at night because the traffic during the day will kill ya! Otherwise I could be these in the early afternoon tomorrow

    Sounds like that place hasn't changed. I loathe any city that has a population number greater than it's elevation!!

    We run with Steve. I don't know who has the move. I'm stuck in Nevada for time being. Steve is a pretty good dude from what I've been around him.
    Yeah it's out of ND heading into Texas.

    Copy. Yeah I don't know him personally, I know his trucks and him from seeing him on the same jobs. I've never hauled a load for him or had him be responsible for payment on anything I've done.

    He has part of that rig and a Landstar agent had other parts. My buddy took from Landstar Steve called the office my buddy works with looking for him and a couple other guys who move rigs
    They took the Landstar offers
    We all know way to much about Steve..
    Ask him sometime why Oh and Pa would not issue him permits for the longest time.. See what he says
    Then get back to us with his reply ...

    Interesting... we are one of the "other guys," that move rigs. I don't know the skinny on who is the main contract holder on this move, but usually we work directly with them.

    Did it have something to do with hitting a bridge on a rig move out of wheeling, wv? If so I pulled the pusher shack off that job.

    No more like no permits being off rte to heavy for what he had
    I could list more, but I'm with Haulhand not putting it out here. I know Haulhand also by the way. Never worked a job together but we have met several times
