    Blair’s new ride, must be doing something right. Just wish he had paid the extra $10 to get yellow. C9F32791-A157-4D09-80D2-9D55311A473D.jpeg

    How'd they mount that flag pole on it?

    I have been contemplating this one. It's a 275 and I think I could get in the places I go now with my 242. But I need to get several trailers, and I just can't do junk, so I think it's gonna wait a year at least.

    Mine is 275 and a 53 with tandem at rear and 18” deep king pin, gotten into every job I’ve been to, trucks stops are another story

    Well, I hear Walmart is phasing out door greeters, so my options are limited. I must make this work.

    A good starter truck.

    With a ladder.

    I have successfully multi-quoted and added nothing of substance to this thread. I’ll have to check and see if I get a trophy for that...

    And dagnabbit. I knew better than to respond to that without looking closer at the pic first.

    The flag pole comment got me. I loaded at a college in Alabama once. They were going to load a whole bunch of just all kinds of junk on my step. A lot of it by hand and figured it would take several hours.
    I was to just to drop the trailer and let them have at it, and go on about my business, which worked out well, sort of. I came back late in the evening to tie down and go.

    The load was nicely stacked, except right in the center of the trailer, was a flag pole sticking up 20 feet or more. I could not belive my eyes, they literally had to unload half the trailer to get it down.

    And another thing about LS. Our esteemed members, this is basically anyone not foolish or gullible enough to sign on here, never get bit by agents, brokers, etc. Some have them so under their thumbs, they've had the broker's children renamed after them by the time their attorney's were finished with them, even the girls.

    Now what I can guarantee you, is you will get it shoved all the way up your ### on occasion, through no fault of your own. I know I do.

    Just save yourself.
