    Nice work, Jim. You have cut your teeth, and now it will just be a rare new experience here and there. Remember to always overkill your securement. Better safe than sorry. Central OH should be a good place for a flatbedder as well.

    Looking forward to the end of the Big 10 season when the Bucks have to make the trip to Kinnick. Hopefully, you are still undefeated...until the Hawks beat you!

    Well, It's not me. If you look at my pictures, you'll see me on a regular flatbed hauling re-bar.

    If you want to drive one of my trucks, Dubuque, IA would be great. If you have your own truck, I am much more flexible. I would also consider the Northern half of IL, IN, OH.

    I love Iowa!
    Do you haul any John Deere machinery from Bauer Built in Paton, IA? I got stuck there for a day and got to watch them test run their pulling tractor, wicked nice people!!
    Got to take in the local sights; saw the "Old Home Fill 'Er Up And Keep on Truckin' Cafe'" made famous by CW McCall.
    Checked out their nice Peter-car.
    It was pretty late when I finally got loaded!
