Glad to hear you're doing OK out there. I just got back from NY, I went to pick up a 1987 LTL 9000 and a low boy trailer. Anyway, keep the rubber side down LOL.

My feeling is we should still try to plan them out, the ones that want to come will respond. Myself I am looking forward to meeting a few of my Michigan brothers, and am looking forward to a few of the events. They may be more regional than statewide due to the prices and hopefully the people in that area can come out and make an appearance.

Just my thought.

Be safe tim3, are you taking part in the shut down? I am parking my 2 rigs for the rest of the week. $4.35 a gallon is starting to add up in a hurry, I'm gonna have to raise my prices soon if the government doesn't step up and get them (truck stops) to lower the fuel prices to where they should be. There is no reason that diesel fuel should cost more than regular gas.

Just checking in. on the road. the company I work for will not let us stop.
I do feel that the oil companys are steeling our money and diesal should not
be so high., no fuel should be that high.This is nuts. You know as well as I
nothing is going to be done about it. to many of our GOV., have hands in the
cookie jar. They do not want to give up that money even if it kills this country. yall take care got 3 hrs. of run time so I got to get as far as I can.
I like pulling in early that gives me a better pick on loads and locations.
see ya.
