Since you are in the area I think I promised you a coffee at the being of the year. I didn't forget and I hope you didn't lol. I will pm you my number so you can call me and we can meet. I work local driving a propane truck all day so I will be around and can take my lunch when I want. So give me a call and we can meet so I can say hi.

George

Hey George,

Got your number and will give you a call. Tootie frootie and her hubby will probably be there also. I'll be at the Jubitz truck stop. I was going through Nebraska on 80 I think it was and there was a sign on the side of the road, 1280 miles to the Jubitz truck stop!!!!

OK guys, lots of freight moving out of the Portland area. Lets see some of you big talkers get me a $2.00 per mile load going back East to Mass, NH, ME or VT and NOT NY!!! My truck will be available on Wed. Tues if push comes to shove. I'm delivering first thing Tuesday morning but felt like taking the rest of the day off. Ya know, it's grueling driving a truck out here in the West!!!
That's way out of my area and it's that lowly flatbed freight. But I'll give it a shot anyway.
I'll get you some profit and make that lazy truck driver in you work a little bit. How about tarping 4 picks and 4 drops? What's my cut?

Stevie.... C'mon what are your rates from the Rose City... I don't know jack about flatbed, but I could get you and your tourist cheerleaders $2.00+FSC by opening the yellow pages..... Listen to the Rev, GMAN and even myself if you want to make real money.....

Yup, got your PM and the leads, thanks a lot!!!

Got to give the old Ranker a shot first though. He'll make enough off the commission to take the family to Chucky Cheese. Or is that Le Chuka Cheeso in Canada there.

C'mon Steve...

Downtown Chicago is a breeze.

I delivered a load of drywall to a place called Lee Lumber last week.

I get in front of the place to find out 18 wheels just don't fit in their teeny little "yard" :shock:

Most of their deliveries are brought in on straight trucks.

I made it work. (although I probably pissed off several dozen fourwheelers while i backed half a block into a dead-end side street... )
