If I bought two acres and buried it in 3 feet of gravel, then steamrolled it flat with drainage on non frontage sides 100 a month would be pretty good with a set of strict rules about the property. 100 a month per truck, call it 30 trucks backing in using half the property to do the necessary turning. No trailers to be dropped. Until a concrete strip 5 feet wide. 4 deep is installed across the entire width of the trailer parking row. (Which is the same as 18 wheeler row.) trailer charges to store would be 50 a day. Rates would be somewhat less if someone needed to put away two rigs max in a corner somewhere for a while.
I could easily support 30 trucks on such a land. looking at about 12000 a month income on the 4. Property taxes on the land would be a couple hundred annually and zoning-land value would be 15000 a acre for several acres. There would be other costs in improvements.
Maybe possible with a small workforce to evolve into a retail 24/7 secured drop lot under contract to certain companies that require it. I would have to accrue more acres. And the staff will be armed on site so if there are highdollar medicines its secure or a 25 million dollar jet engine or whatever.
Probably have to reinforce the fence into a triple system with a deadstrip in between one and two constantly raked after wind and storms using the Israeli Hebron road fence model. Nothing in nothing out.
And then buy no posts or pour additional dock like barriers to prevent less skilled drivers from crushing the fence trying to back.
Electricty will be another issue, bigger the sun the more dollah to feed it.
It never ends. Constantly evolving.
Then 500 a month to 1000 flat rate for those drop and hook each week. We don't count trailers but we will count spaces and tell the lessor what number of spaces are free for them. There are two major container railroad yards here and frankly I will need to buy a farm. Then continue to evolve.
Ugh.
I'll just stick with one truck 100 a week. no trash, no bottles etc. each time I see it around the truck on gravel will be another 100. And driver comes clean it up.
That way there should be no problems.
Life isnt like that.
What if it Snows?

Not bad.
There is another rifle that was built a few years ago A modern gun that explores the limit of people being able to fire aimed rounds and not lose the entire shoulder assembly within the body. I'll spend some time tomorrow to see if I can find it. Its approximately a 2 inch caliber rifled ported barrel. They used about 50 pounds in sandbags to hold it down and so on.
There was a novalogic game so long ago under which I played as Heavy552 from time to time (Because one of my trucks was 552 number and because I was never legal on scales with those containers. It's ridiculous.) Anyway the title is deltaforce land warrior I think it was.
Grab a big rifle a giant scope and run for 20 minutes across the servers map. The city both teams are supposed to fight in is a distance blob.
In the scope you go and see if you can locate the black dots of your enemy snipers 1800 yards in front of you. trying to pick off your team from behind.
BOOOOM!
Sip your coffee and wait a minute.
4 seconds PLINK! the body jerks and flops dead due to that black dot headshot you did. Takes about 2 seconds due to dailup latency to confirm everything.
Fast forward to later in POE mod (Point of existance) I was using the satellite view of the enemy land below and follow the infantry as they hide in a cabin.
FIRE the big German 2000 roars out.
No more cabin.
They get idea to stay out of cabins. Hide behind very large rocks.
BOOOM.
Plink and that one hiding over there
BOOOOM.
Plink.
Trashtalking comes across text chat in game. A few more plinks later people either rage quit or hunt me persoanlly slap a couple of C4 sticks under my treads.
I may still ahve a surviving forum post where I defended that type of artillery use in game. And the devs were able to resolve it in several different ways. But it took a total federal case discussion in those days. Some for the system others against.
Now a days with the younger ones, there is no discussion. It degenerates into bad words and the mods just close the thread. Tossing the worst of those who have not yet gotten the word to leave it.RidgeRunner731 and Lepton1 Thank this. -
