Well herein lies the problem.
I'm in Connecticut. The truck is still in Rhode Island.
Dad owes me 6700$ for various work/loans that he has yet to get to me. He's supposed to get a check in on January 2nd so it'll be some time after then. Fortunately it's a gov't check so if he cashes it at any bank on the 2nd he can get cash on the 2nd.
Before you ask how dad ended up owing ME money rather than the other way around here's how it goes.
I sub a job dad's doing for 5$ a block set plus 300$ in prep work that should've been done by the time I got there. -2,300$
More work driving a compactor on a different job for the same client. -700$
Loan for dozer fuel while waiting on a check - 3,000$
Loan to make insurance payments - 500$
Assorted borrowing 20$ here and there - 200$
Anyways I hope to have the truck home by the end of Christmas break on January 5th. I've got to get my brother to go with us to pick up the truck since I don't have my license yet so scheduling there could take another day or 2.
I can take some pics of other neato stuff in the meantime.
I'm working tomorrow so you can have pics of one of the following:
1: Ford 2120 that I use to move snow/level dirt
2: Dresser TD7H dozer
3: The inside of the shop
4: The 6.uhoh DRW w/service body
5: some pretty New England young ladies.
