    Well it sounds like you have had a most interesting day. Shoveling sucks! I love my liner. It's been raining and muddy here which is OK. Keeps me out of the job sites, construction sites which I hate anyway since the ground isn't stable and things get interesting. I pick up my 1st new trailer Friday morning. I'm ready. I'll miss my old trailer but I sold it with visitation rights LOL.

    I'll see my old one since my almost adopted son bought my old one. He'll take excellent care of her. I get attached to things, silly I know.

    Dude DDG sucks! I had it only once and I did a fair amount of shoveling and vibrating. That and wet feed. Only because that crap is so fluffy it doesn’t flow out onto itself like rock or sand. It just comes plopping out and stuffs, and you hafta string it all out. I don’t like rolling that far with my bed up. I was headed to St. Louis and blew a tire which then in turn blasted a hole in my airbag. After much delay finally got rolling. The backhaul in Illinois wouldn’t load after dark so I had the option of bouncing back to KC or gettin set up in a hotel. Took the latter option and I’m loading first thing in the morning headed back to Kansas City HOPEFULLY without incident this time. Did you load your road salt out of Kanapolis?

    I talked to Jimmy Wink tonight, mentioned the TTR and that it'd be good for him to make an account here and respond to any questions. He's also going to be posting new videos on the web site in the next couple of weeks

    I’m sure that would be interesting. I’ve seen the one that looks like it has plastic inserts but I think you are the first person I’ve heard actually gettingone.but I’m sure it will be good to get the word out on his product

    But truly it doesn’t seem like there are many guys on here pulling end dumps or at least O/O’s on here

    I think there are more, but this thread wasn't used much. I'll have some of my buds on here eventually. I can't stand the Facebook tweeting stuff this seems to work better for me.
