    Yes it dose have a tarp. I also have access to a hopper that I’ve used for a few days too. Thanks for the thoughts.

    Any updates? I remember reading a few years back about your work on the International and that journey. How goes the Freightliner era?

    What’s up buddy?
    2020 EXTREME TRAILERS XP55 For Sale in Chatsworth, Illinois

    The flatbed is up for sale so dump stuff must be working out ok? The sleeper (international)truck may be next?

    This is already kinda boring but trying to learn as much as I can. Equipment is still mostly staying together… thanks for checking in me.

    I’d really like to get my equipment lookin a bit better but have a lot of irons in the fire at the moment. Air conditioning in the shop was supposed to make it better but now I’m lazier than ever… IMG_2812.jpeg

    Just an old Ryder truck. Was a single screw, 12.7 egr Detroit, no jakes and a 10 speed. The new axles have 3.58 gears.

    The ac works though…
