    Thanks, Lep. Send Rocks some love.

    Dont You just hate how in some places they place the weight restriction signs for roads in such a manner that by time you see it you have no option except continue on hoping you dont get spotted... Or back up for a mile or more????

    Happened to me last night... Loaded to 77k I come upon this little sign that says "15 ton weight limit" on this little curvy windy road in farm country. I was "F Me!!!" I only had 2 miles to go on that road so I continued on... Then I saw a bridge... "F, F, F!!!!" I stopped and inspected the bridge crossing a small creek. Obviously built to handle heavy farm equipment, and the tractor would be completely across before the trailer got onto it so I crossed without incident... But I made sure to note that road as a No Go for future reference.

    He bought it on Melrose at a vintage clothing store. I think it’s called Cowboy and Espresso at the Tuscan Hills. It’s actually in Brea. I think they’re also making beyond burger leather couches and Men’s European shoulder bags. I call ‘em purses. But hey they’re vegan and they smell like alfalfa which is part of the charm.

    LOLING

    :D :D

    @Rocks Sorry for the loss. At least your father was around as long as he was.
    My father passed on when I was only 21. So many things I wish he could have seen in my life. Too many things unsaid.

    I believe you. Every coke I've ever been to treats the line haul drivers like ####.
