    Ok why be in Montana? I have gone out north west maybe 5 times in 8 years. There is no juice to squeeze to get back.

    I used to haul posts from there every week down into Wyoming. Paid good going down, but reloads were non-existent. Had to haul mulch from Rexburg or deadhead into SLC.
    The older guy was a good dude.
    The best operator I ever watched was loading railroad ties in Missoula. That guy made running a forklift into an art form.
