Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

Thanks wheathauler. What are your thoughts on retreads?

 

I'm a member of OOIDA too,COhauler. They have always been really helpful with any questions i've had and they really went to bat for my cousin when he had a couple of brokers dragging their feet on payment for 2 loads,they ended up getting ALL of his invoices payed that were owed to him.I've never had to use them for that particular reason myself,but i have not forgotten about what they did for him.I'm also in their drug consortium.

 

On a really sad note folks,my mechanic had what they think was a brain aneurysm and passed away this afternoon.He was only in his mid-thirties and in apparently good health otherwise. He left a cute little 10 year old girl behind. Sad,sad deal.

He was a natural,the little squirt could tune a motor with his ear better than most mechanics with a wall full of computers.I've seen him lay down on his back and put the oil pan of my 425cat on his knees while holding it with one hand,putting the bolts in with the other all while never upsetting the gasket.I'm gona miss him something terrible.

Ya'll stay safe and give your loved ones a hug the next time ya get a chance,ok?

 

Sorry to hear about your mechanic, dairyman. That is really sad. When our time's up, its up, no matter the reason.

 

Thanks for all the kind words,thoughts and prayers folks,'preciate it a lot.

 

Its tuff to loose a member of a company because chances are they are your friends too....I am very sorry for your loss DM, prayers go out to his family. May his soul resound with a straight pipe roar
