    Hey! I know it’s 3:30 and you’re on the other side of Atlanta, but can you be 175 miles up the road to load a machine and then deliver it 70 miles down the road by 7 pm?


    Yeah, sure thing… just let me refill my nos bottle first. I still have 70 miles to get to the machine. Don’t think I’m going to be there on time.

    Let’s see, Atlanta at 3:30. Best you’re gonna do is 17 mph. Did they hang up on you when you started laughing.

    No, just got do the best you can. I have contacted all parties and it’s not nearly as pressing as the salesman pretended. Leaving me the gate code. I’ll load tonight and deliver in the morning
