    Yeah its a tunnel underneath a strip mall. The docks are inside parallelish to the tunnel pathway. They use elevators to bring the freight up go the stores. Definitely intended for box truck & pup deliveries, but wth -- this is why they pay me the big bucks! (looks at last week's check). Errr, this is why they pay me...

    Sitting at the Holiday Inn, truck in the shop to get the inverter fixed,fuel filters changed and qualcomm mounted, oh yeah and get the side of our truck fixed where some a-hole back into us last night while we were sleeping then took off before we could get up, so just above the fuel tank it's crushed in so body shop is saying maybe 1-2 days for it to get fixed

    tunnel dock.jpg jacked.jpg mirror.jpg

    Sign says "All vehicles running engines over 3 minutes in this tunnel will be subject to a $1000 fine or 30 days in jail or both" -- took me 45 minutes to get straight enough in the dock for the dock plate to not be floating on one side (and that required sliding tandems back and forth to change the articulation). Still ended up about 10* off kilter -- need a daycab...


    That wasn't even the worst part -- on the way out there is a stupid Z-curve (still in the narrow tunnel) and even with the tandems all the way forward and setting up wide -- you can't make the 2nd turn without re-enacting the golf-cart scene from Austin Powers (or tempting fate by driving the trailer tires up/over a sharp 10" high curb).

    Where is this place?
    Should be reported to safety, doesn't look like we have any business in there.
    You should be commended for getting in and out incident free.
