Then again, let's not talk about the '08 SDs. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
I sure hope that '08 look grows on me[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Hopefully I won't need to have a few drinks to enjoy the looks of it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Our work just posted that anyone driving the work trucks with the utility boxes needs to stop at all weigh stations. Think someone got popped for failing to stop at one[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Wife and I finished putting in a new floor in the trailer, have to say it turned out alright[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I have been running a heater in it to help it cure, been freezing here the last few nights. Trying to get it ready to do a weekend trip to Gorman in a few weeks.

It does sound like that. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Our 16K trailer has only left the yard once in nearly 2 years since someone got popped for towing it.

And I always hate going through the scales. Last time I got some extra attention and a cute little yellow sticker. LOL. I think it took him longer to play with the computer that roll around under the truck playing with stuff.

Well my employer is now officially FBK. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

550 with a 16' flatbed. Yes, 16'. That freaking thing is LONG. 201" WB. She sure looks perdy, for a stock XL. White with a gloss black bed. Not sure if it's powder or paint.

Hoping to land yet another job that sounds to be pretty cool. Should hear fer sure in about a week[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
LOL! When it rains it pours[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Good luck on the job. Seems you can't go wrong right now[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]


Thanks![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Kinda funny. I have two jobs now and will be dropping one to move up into this other one. The first one is more of a side job that I can do in the spare time plus get commission on sales of those made by others under me in my territory. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] It's really weird passing on jobs that are really nice to get another. Never been in that position before[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Got the good news today[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Start the new job in a week with much more than I was making plus a car of my choice. Can't beat it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Hard to say. Our current one really isn't dented up. Now, the paint on the bed, or rather what's left of it.... We have to take it in to Scelzi to have them make the side boards for it.

"It really expands our capability," I think is my boss' favorite saying.

Hopefully we can get fuel in this one. The other flatbed, which we still have, was a PITA to get fuel into. Truck was about $42K OTD. Std cab, 201"WB 4x2, err wouldn't that be 6x4? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] 4.88 diff.
