    Yep. I hooked up to my trailer and was getting ready to roll and heard snapping then a flash right next to me as the Werner trailer next to me caught the wires.

    For a second as a read your post, I thought you were going to say you did it. Glad you didn't.

    I thought I did for a minute, I was shifting my tandems where the trailer was parked. As soon as I started moving them is when the wires came down.

    I was all oh s***!

    But the pole that was behind me was like 20 feet away. Apparently they had just had a meeting that morning about not bringing trailers back there lifted high on the yard dogs. So safe to say that guys fired

    Me and my son at the Cadillac Ranch. Just west of Amarillo, Tx. He got to spray paint his name on one of the cars.

    Plenty of room for a truck to park on the side of the road. Just take the exit for Loves (exit 60 I think), and follow the service road east for about a mile.
    If west bound, take the same exit and make a left followed by another left and follow service road east.

    People leave spray paint cans there and some still have paint in them. Some people are rude and walk through the crops and paint some of the plants. If they keep that up, no telling how long it will remain open to the public.
