    Those "good" operators can weekend/breakdown/jobend park a machine and helicopter out. Makes it difficult to find, see, and tough to reach.
    You gotta get behind it first,then it wont start and fun begins. Still easier than loading forklifts on a Jerr Dann rollback.

    Help sucks, place is decent. Place sucks, help is most gracious (and pretty). Decisions, story of the lonesome truck drivers life.
    Long time ago, we could easily find both. Not now.

    Hmm.
    Guy I know is getting out of trucking.
    He’s is putting for sale Prostar with Cummins engine and 53’ dryvan.
    I could buy the van...(about 15-20k less than what I see for year model) or just wait and buy a new hopper...
    These decisions aren’t to be taken lightly, though I have no customer base with need of dryvan, one possible and one maybe.

    Reason for edit: Spell check doesn’t know between Sale and Saying.

    Must have been Tibbetts digging, what with reaching under the other stringy things in the way?
    Nice solid collection of backfill in the prior, what is all the dirt in that pile for?
