    I thought I was gonna be more of a local than I am, but so far I've been sent to FL, GA, and MI. That's fine with me, I would rather stay out of the northeast as much as possible. Hey Rhino, inbox me I have a ? For u

    The truck I had this last time with them would make the perfect local truck. I had one of the smaller 670's. I didn't care for it running on regional, but I wouldn't mind it local. There is enough room to move around in the truck, but still has a bit shorter wheelbase then the 780. Those new ones would just be too small for me.

    I swear, it wasn't my truck! When I heard about this on Monday my first phone call was to safety to make sure they were able to save the vending machines in the break room.

    They don't know how. Eddie pulled in to open up at 4am and saw the flames. By the time the fire dept got there all they were worried about was the building. Gotta love Volvo's electrical system. Or maybe it was an internal combustion that sent it up in flames.

    Incredible!!! There's nothing left to that thing but the frame and anything that wasn't plastic or fiberglass.
