    Similar situation with a FECC run I had in New Mexico, I think is was New Mexico at least. The mailing address was 55 miles east of where I had to deliver.

    tickets in NY for running APU's

    I don't know if the guy was yankin my chain or not but it sure sounds like something the yahoos in NY would do. Maybe we just should block all the interstates going in there one day. See how long they could go without all the toys they want that only trucks can handle. Layoutshooter
