    I saw one of the orange Star Car's probably two months ago on US 36 in Missouri. I wasn't close enough to read the name on the door though.

    I stay in touch with the office from time to time. They said business is great as of last week. Obviously a very heavy heart regarding Stan.
    I am the same. Keep thinking I can call or DM to say hello. Still doesn't seem real.

    I saw one of his trucks on 80 headed west near the Indiana/Illinois border yesterday. Still looking good.

    And Brad I feel the same as you, went to call him just last week with a technical question that he would've been perfectly suited to answer. I miss my weekly chats, that's for sure.

    Ford decided to start shipping mid/high roof transits to big lift instead of Rolla. So we been seeing a lot of wedgies coming in and hauling them out for Metrogistics.

    As they fight to keep two below 15', I can't help but think of Stan and his 80 footers and how easily they could take 3.
