    What takes so long? I start in Carson for my biggest pick, then to Commerce, Maywood, Cerritos, Corona and then Fontana. Usually get to the Big Boy on Calimesa Blvd. between 1:30 & 2:30m for lunch. After that it's a quick 5 hrs home to Buckeye. That's packin & stackin it-front to back, floor to ceiling!!
