    Sometimes when I get really bored driving I drop my seat to the floor and pretend I'm in a cab over since I'm not lucky enough to drive a truck with a real hood.

    I suggest picking up 4 25 ft 1/4" or3/8" ropes and 4 carabiners. Use 2 on the eyes near the top pulling forward at a 45 degree angle on the back tarp and the other 2 on the front tarp pulling back at 45 degrees.
    The rope will not stretch much and control the top and if you have less than 2 ft of overlap you can use a 2" strap for security.

    Looks like tomorrow is finally go day, they were loading my wing about an hour ago, @kylefitzy missed the load assignment so he got my load mostly ready to go before he realized he's hauling the other wing. Don't know why Bossman switched it up, @kylefitzy is the lead driver so he should be hauling the right wing. Oh well.....

    Bachelor Restaurant food porn for tonight was some chili lime chicken I've had vacuum marinating for 24 hours (it literally fell apart) and bacon wrapped asparagus.

    One of the places I deliver to in the Hamptons bought that statuary business for the ten parking spots behind it. They said it’s actually a profitable business so they’re still running it. Lol who would have thought.
