    Now that you see where they are going motors don't look so big anymore.

    When I used to drive I would hate it when they had 2 lifts to off load me and they would want to do the install of the first unit instead of just grounding it before off loading the second.

    Yeah, the crane would not extend long enough safely to drop the 2nd motor in so I have to move around to the other side of the boat, o Lu took them 2hrs to get me unloaded so it wasn't too bad.

    It is also a lot more interesting than the back end of a mall.
    They were also probably happy to see you arrive and spoke to you like you were human.

    That's why I usually have them start loading a bit further back. Then I have space left on the nose for a heavy piece if they try to load it all goofy like that.
