    I've hauled a lot of cool stuff. Torpedos, Tomahawk missles, radioactive, boats, a Blackhawk fuselage, big propeller, Delta IV rocket motor, and on and on. I'm with cpape though, it's all about the money. The Tomahawk load I had went to WA state, and I managed to put 2 other full rate loads with it. Personally, I could care less if someone wants me to haul a pallet of fertilizer or a prototype flux capacitor, as long as it pay$. The Navy wrecked a F5 a while back, and I hauled the wing to be repaired. I really wanted to haul the fuselage, so I went back to the area. The fuselage ended up paying less than the wing, plus it needed permits, and I didn't haul it even though it would have been "cool".

    I assume you loaded the missiles out of East Orlando?

    Tell the driver to bring extra food and water, seems the receivers are rather slow anymore in that area.
