    I just completed the shortest haul of my life... From the shipper to the receiver, dock to dock, is 5.4 miles. Just shy of 42k of bulk processed potatoes from one major potatoe processor to one of thier smaller competitors.

    I just had a natural gas truck back up next to me. Never heard one up close at idle. Pretty quiet.

    OK. There is two here now and they keep making a racket under the hood. It comes and goes. Quiet most of the time.

    One day in a crowded bank, suddenly they’re being robbed. On the way out, the Robber asks,”Did anyone see Me rob this Bank? One Man says, “Why yes I saw everything” So the Robber shoots him dead. Then the Robber asks “Did anyone else see Me rob this Bank?” An older Man standing with his wife replies “I didn’t, but She did” Pointing at his Wife.

    I recommend buttermilk or a beer to kill the bennies you must have taken on that trip. Amazing what dispatch will send a truck to do.(Sarcasm)
    Possible: Large company hung up on mandates, conformity and small competitor buys a load an gets on with business.

    Transgendering from gas/diesel to electric. Trying to slip in, run completely silent. Sit and watch, might not hear him leave.
