    Cuz the Love's I used yesterday for a tire says they're not able to work on that system. It's possible that we have an account with international thru their dealers shops tho. Doubt we tow engine problems from Colorado to Nashville for example. Call the closest dealer ask if they have a shop account for us....

    I don't work for WE or ever have but if you want to keep your job you might stick the regular channels at WE. Don't think they would look kindly at you just going to a dealership on your own. But again as I've said I have never worked there so
     
    gentleroger and farmerjohn64 Thank this.

    Western Express is kinda a wild west, forgiveness is easier than permission company. I think personally my dude is perfectly happy to have me fix whatever without him having to be involved lolol

    Ultimately the business that does the work is going to make sure they get paid. So if Western has an account with the dealer and they authorize the work, I'd just do it.

    My only delivery was actually Mennonite. I think. Cuz they used a propane fork truck. But yes the blue shirts and straw hat. South East PA. Had to get in there on a corner road access to deliver hay. The address road had a concrete culvert that I was super uncomfortable driving over with 80k so I took the side path. It worked out ok. I was really grateful they didn't act all weird about my being a girl. They don't mix girls and boys in public much. But those guys were chill. Really nice delivery
