Where is everyone #2!!

I had a nice parking spot at the Loves in Matthew, MO and then I watched a Mercer truck rip off the bumper of a Logicorp (Mexican) truck. Then a Groendyke tanker got backed into by MTS truck. I'm outta here .... Came down to the rest area about 20 miles south. Get up early and roll on down towards Houston tomorrow. My reload back to IN should be ready Thursday evening so back north I will go. Then reload plates coming back to TX LOL

 

Guess Mike got his new truck then. It's a glider IIRC

Ouch... Those Argosy gliders are close to $180k. Way too rich for my blood

 

4 axle, double framed, Cat motor.

His is going to be a heavy three axle, so it will be more than the run of the mill glider I would imagine.

 

I don't bash on Laredo, They pay CASH and Mexican customers are real loyal. Drivers are the ones that ruin the rates down south, they come down with $3 a mile but yet take $1.40 freight to cover fuel expenses and brokers make the big bucks. But its all about having the right connect. By the way who cares what language people speak in general...Money talks Bs walks, a true business man knows that.

and the reason they take off seals off U.S trailer is because down south they have our 90's 80's equipment, so some of the folks are just on the crossing trailer business and some of the older trailers have bad seals because of wear, so they put new ones of the U.S trailers they dropped and took the seal off instead of buying them. Same thing happens in the ports with chassis.

 

Dropped Grand Prairie,TX & grabbed a set of 12' wides in Wichita, now off to the Great NorthWet.

 

That would explain why it looked so new! Sounds like an interesting truck.

 

He bought it to "be on ice road truckers".......
Sold a 4 axle Western Star to get it, which kind of boggled my mind a little. He had a cabover before the WS though, so I dunno I guess...

I know this is strange. I'm home and the neighbor just shot himself in the head in his front yard. Cops ambulances they brought everyone.

And no. You don't see the person. Its a clean from side picture
