Awesome, man! Glad to hear life is moving forward! We've missed you and we need you around here! I hope things settle down in such a way that you're able to come around more.

Now I have to look up where your new hometown is.

I moved to where I ultimately want to retire; Lewes DE

I can say with certainty I've heard no one say that before! Of course, I live in Upstate NY where the population has been in a steady decline for like 50 years, one of the few declining populations on the planet.

Glad to hear from you again! Don't be a stranger!

Wow, I don't even want to get an endorsement for double/triple cuz I'm lazy and it seams so cumbersome to tinker around with them. Even after watching this clip, which makes it look so easy, they would not pay me enough to do it;). Wish you well.

Glad to see you back. How long did it take to get the hang of building the doubles?

About 1 week. Backing the dolly up to the trailing unit was the hardest part. It’s 12’ long and requires minimal steering input. I run 4 sets per night; 2 loads and 2 empties.

Thank you!

You've NO CLUE HOW MUCH you were missed, G !

Some of the 'boys & girls' reached out to me (the little P/I I can be....) .... I came up 'short' ... LoL!

Good luck and the BEST TO YOU, in the new endeavors, G. Thanks for letting the gang know.

Please don't be a stranger!~

Doubles:

Refers to pulling two trailers at the same time, otherwise known as "pups" or "pup trailers" because they're only about 28 feet long. However there are some states that allow doubles that are each 48 feet in length.

Thank you! Awesome news.

Congrats on move to Tax Free Delaware and the new Gig.

Meanwhile, I took a "B"aby step. I'm running a school bus route for Custer's. Once my divorce is over and things settled, I'll be going after my A.

I felt a minor disturbance of The Force. Yawn........

I'm glad to see your return here, but I'm happier to read how you've surged forward in this career and with your future, G-Town.
