    Bronx isn't too bad. Manhattan is pretty easy too. Just go 2nd Ave all the way down and 1st Ave back up. I used to go down 2nd to get in and then go up the west side highway and out through the Lincoln Tunnel. Manhattan is kinda like a grid, the avenues go north and south. The streets go east and west. A lot of the streets are narrow one way but if you pick the right ones, they're two way streets so they're wide enough for you to make a turn if you have to go around the block. Forget about Brooklyn, I HATE Brooklyn. can never figure out where I'm going in Brooklyn. I'm lucky to get in and out without getting TOTALLY screwed up!

    Manhattan is easy, does get tighter the further south you get
    Staten island is decent enough, lot of weight restricted roads but not real hard
    Bronx is okay/ plenty of roads that get squiggly n dont stay straight
    Brooklyn and queens both have a decent amount of popup “one way” roads /like they are two way and one way depending on where you are on them- as well as some rather tight areas and low overpasses

    all have plenty of entitled pedestrians and bicyclists most of the time.

    Like anything, the more you do it the easier it is

    A nice three stop trailer load…fortunately it finalizes in NC which will get me out of the cold and snow of WI.

    Not my favorite commodity, but hey they can’t all be rock star loads :).

    I'm literally the only guy who loads out of there who uses edge protection. Also only 1 other guy throws belly straps.

    Pretty boring load until you have to load em by yourself.
    One doesn’t run the other does but doesn’t have brakes just a loader for a parking brake.
    Good thing it was an hourly rate!

    Is that Coatesville I see in that pic? Kind of looks like it.
