I come home everyday to my bed too. Sadly I don't know what it's like to sleep on it. Want a 1 yr old and a 3 yr old?
Even upgrading to a king size bed didn't help, now they all fit more comfortably.BigBob410, Flatbed Valkyrie, Oxbow and 5 others Thank this. -
If I didn't know any better, I'd say you just described Prestressed Concrete at Newton, Ks. The old highway (I grew up with it being called old 81), the 45* at main, next to the tracks and the COOP and the bank on the southwest corner of 12th and main where you turned left and in a couple blocks went up the big hill. Would that be a safe assumption??catalinaflyer and G13Tomcat Thank this.

@catalinaflyer .. ^^^^ is he right? just curious, LoL. Sounds like getting into the yard of United Prefab here in Mt. Vernon, Ohio. Are all precast yards like this??
catalinaflyer and johndeere4020 Thank this. -
Thats it.
Yes, that's the oneHeWhoMustNotBeNamed, 1951 ford and G13Tomcat Thank this. -
I despise that UPI yard in Mt Vernon.G13Tomcat Thanks this.
-
@johndeere4020 been there done that, huh? Jenni and Mark are SO unorganized, trailers all haphazard all over the place, and the MUD, ... really?!
-
We buy structures off of them sometimes, we mostly use EC Baabert but occasionally UPI. It's always a fiasco.G13Tomcat Thanks this.

^^ Fiasco is right. Last time I hauled for them it took us 2 hours to find the right trailer. Number was wrong, color was wrong, description iffy. Bounced from one yard to the next, around the corner. (you know where I mean, then.) My boss and I and another driver hauled once for EC Babbert out of Canal Winchester, I think. Abutments to Ashley, Ohio on some of the tiniest dang roads around here. Better yard, tho!
UPI ... That's that tripod I posted about that smoked brakes and load slipped. In the CB thread. They still call me to "come work for them . . HA!~." nothing against y'all FB OS/OD guys, much respect. United Precast just gave me a bad taste in my mouth. That last load was probably refused 3x.... and we hauled it on a Sunday! Wasn't my first with them, but def my last, LoL!
Tell Jenni and Mark Tom says hi, if you get stuck there again.. Be safe, man!FerrissWheel, Little Gear Grinder and johndeere4020 Thank this.
