Thats good Tim. Now that we have the tractor trailer situated in a better spot. They had to stop traffic on a major road to get him backed out and then turned around and backed back in. Not fun turning around a truck with a sleeper cab and a 53 foot trailer.

Today I sat at my desk and made phone calls. Then I brought a king ranch home to my dad for him to see and test drive. Didn't sell it but I knew that would happen before I brought it. I just wanted to drive it lol. He loved it. It had the max tow package, tuxedo black, 6.5ft bed, tailgate step, 2nd row heated seats, sun roof. Only thing it didn't have was monochromatic package.

All that Ramen noodle might have messed up your swing.

Nice! I bet that is a sweet ride. Maybe you can prod him a little more into getting it!

Just about Tim. Worst one that we park there is the mobile tv Studios when we have home games that are televised on ESPN or the local sports channel MASN.

I wonder what type of endorsements you need on a rig like that. I bet Charlie would know.

For those Probably a class A CDL with air brake endorsement Tim. Since it is not a hazmat truck it is considered a regular tractor trailer. They pretty much contain a small production studio and all of the camera equipment needed to film a game on the truck. And a small crew is bussed around with it as well.

I tried even showed him numbers. He gets my D plan pricing too. He goes on a deployment in December so that's why he's hesitant to purchase. It's for him so why spend that kind of money on something you can't drive for a while.

Thats not too bad then. Figured it might need an extra endorsement for weight or length. I have no clue.
