Another story in truck hauling woes
It seems that I just can not get away from people needing the speciality services my truck offers, hauling s@#t. Since the a href="/b/Yes-this-is-my-truck-and-no-I-won--t-help-you-move!.php">Feb truck rant/a> I have been helping pickup all sort of other people;s stuff. I have not even hauled anything for myself.
The total is up too: 3 trips to Home Depot, 2 trips to specialty wood supply store, 2 work benches, chemical rack, a battery charger, a pressure washer, 1/2 yard of river rock and 1 yard of fine beauty bark. That is a lot of stuff that is not mine and the best part is that my Memorial Day weekend will be spent helping a buddy move. Ugh. These days I am one of the only people I know that has a truck and spend a fair amount of time hauling of others.
My truck is by no mean a work truck; its a light duty half ton. Last Thursday I hauled the 1/2 yard of river rock which compressed the ass end the most I have ever seen. That is saying something since I have never owned a car, ever!
The rear tires where tucked a solid four inches in the fender wells and the axle stoppers where smashed from their 4 inch max to almost nothing. I could feel the metal to metal mashing traveling down some semi bumpy roads; good thing the shocks held out. But all this makes it difficult to continue to help out.
It is not just one move that gets me going is the one to two things for 10 friends. All that time adds up and it makes me feel that I am just truck hauling guy. There is usually no concern for gas, wear and tear on the truck and time out of my schedule.
If I wanted a big bad Chev again it would be like this one: a blank="_taget" href="http://www.wheelsforless.com/images/driv/gallery/chevyblitz.jpg">http://www.wheelsforless.com/images/driv/gallery/chevyblitz.jpg/a>. That is one bad truck...hella bad!
The point is that people with trucks spend a lot of time helping others move. All we ask is some appreication and try not to make it Memorial Day weekend RUDY!! hehe..I'll have to tell him about this :) Anyhoo...
Now that Summer is coming up, got the truck waxed and bed scrubbed this weekend since it was 95 degrees here, with some racing stuff with a href="/profile.php?member=Dayzed50&vehicle=2236">Dayzed50/a>. He got his rims ordered up for his a href="/profile.php?member=Dayzed50&vehicle=2236">Pontiac G8/a> and pictures should be up soon. Until the next time..
Take Er Sleazy!
