Yellows, Roadways, Dollar Signs, etc on 80 in PA in the 70's. Daycabs with Detroits, screaming up the hills at 15 or 20 mph, rolling coal like a choo choo train :eek: , and me in my Nova passing them at a then-illegal 64 mph like they were standing still... Yes, I remember :)

I drove a UHaul truck up I81 for a moving client back in 2004. An '88 International 26' with a 210-hp 7.3 non-turbo and a 5 speed. Between Pine Grove and Hazleton, the hills get a mite steep. This truck climbed them in third, engine screaming, at a breathtaking 28 mph. A three-year-old on a Big...

Best $150 I've spent in decades :D

Left there at 1730 yesterday, deadheaded 880 miles home. Slept at J in Spiceland, Ind, then finished today. It was either blow $150+ on fuel, or resent not being with my wife, etc. Tomorrow we go to my son's house for my grandson's first birthday :D $cru the money; some things are more important.

Your storm is here now, in Sullivan. I'm keeping a close eye on it because if things start getting spinny, I don't know what to do :eek:

If it harasses you, terminate it.

Nothing out of Kansas last Thursday or Friday. I move to KC. Monday, two calls for runs to Texas. Yesterday, a Tennessee run, hook not set. I move toward St. Louis. Today, one call about a run to Nebraska. Turned it down, as I want to go East. Where is the freight anyway?

Hey Kickstarter, if you get another run to Breinigsville, send it to me. I live 50 miles away :)

Weird coincidence? Kansas City beats Oakland, 9-8 in 12 innings. Both cities have hosted the Athletics. Your humble poster comes from Philadelphia, the original home of what team? Yup, the A's. Well, goodnight from Cards country :p

No joy in KC, decided to try St Louis. At J in Sullivan, MO

This is a European-market vehicle, so the "350" probably means 3500 kg GVW. That's the upper limit in Europe for a regular license. Above that is CDL territory.

Depends on how good ya look nekkid. Sounds like distracted driving to me :p

I have a no-contract Verizon phone. Only 3G but the service is awesome. Full bars in North Dakota awesome :) . Unlimited talk & text, $45 including 500 megs of data. Additional data costs $5 for 500 megs, $10 for a gig, and $20 for 3 gigs. I'm happy :cool:

Sign me up for the brown side :cool: . I remember what James Carville said about PA; Philly and Pittsburgh in the corners, Alabama in the middle :) I will always love Pennsylvania, but I don't think I can afford it anymore :(

The way things are going in the world at large, SD is starting to look pretty good :)

ProEx, Cleveland area. I have a passport already, but they told me I need a FAST card if they want to send me up.

Thanks again for the info :thumbup::cool:

I hear good things about them, as well as the one I posted about. One trip to SD wouldn't hurt, IMHO; there's touristy stuff up there. Tags on the van would be $130, vs $153 in PA. No property tax either state. Also, SD doesn't have state income tax :)

Thanks, Scott. Wondering about the timeframe between applying online and getting the appointment.

Apparently, you can use their address as a physical address. It caters to rv'ers. You can get South Dakota plates, license, even register to vote. I've looked into it a bit, seems to be in conformity with SD law. I had Progressive do a quote; I would save over $800 by doing this.
