    They are old day cabs. I'll snap a few pics next time I'm up there. I would imagine they are salvageable being as how nothing rusts here. I imagine they would need a inframe due to sitting for what I'm guessing is a very long time. Next time I can corner the owner for a minute I'm gonna offer him scrap price for a truck and trailer so it can sit in my shop for ever and continue to get nothing done with it for a few years.(I'm not gonna lie to myself lol).

    Well you could get a nice race hauler. Roll up to one of your BMX races in a cool rig. Put some attitude in the game.

    Ok so I had a new experience today... I had to go MT hunting. I wasted nearly 3 hours and was unsuccessful. I never have to look for MT's... But as it is a Sunday afternoon, noone is in the office to tell me where one is...

    I really didnt want to wait for the graveyard shift to get one empty. I'm about 150 miles from my house and was doing everything I could to get home today... I even took a VERY LONG detour to avoid The Sisters as I was hearing reports of several trucks spun out and that traffic was backed up for miles. So I doubled back a few miles to US30 and got to Ogden, UT via Garden City and Logan. Just to find there are no MT's in the Ogden, SLC, Tremonton area...

    So here I sit, back where I dropped my loaded trailer doing a 10 and waiting for graveyard shift to tell me the docked trailer I backed under is empty....

    I think I must be hallucinating... I just saw a truck that has HUGE decals proclaiming its driver to have "2 MILLION SAFE MILES"... Now its not that I dont think such drivers exist, but it was a CRE truck. Who in thier right mind would stay at CRE long enough to rack up 2 million miles????!!!!!

    In reality, both the CRE truck & the Werner truck are probably lease operators.
