How many are in the area there? I'm delivering in a little while but it's so nasty, I might just run down to the house and hit it again tomorrow.

I was #11 out of 11, but the thing about this area is, (The yard) is that the q-c doesn't separate the local and canadian guys from us.So basically, from our standpoint, the number is in-accurate, and should not really be considered as to what # you actually are.In this area, anyway.

guido when i get off the floor lol good idea but would have to be a bloody big grinder as this was one big wheel clamp but once again guys if you guys know off walmarts or etc i do not want to paid out anymore to park in between loads.. as i said like a lot of us my income is way down sign,s of the times and i know the guys in dispatch is really trying hard to keep us moving but this hurt my pocket .. so i guess got to be more careful where to park once we deliver . so what ever state if you know walmarts clamping let us know

Since this has been a safe spot, makes me wonder if it was a scam. Nice way to make some extra money. Were you able to verify this "new city ordinance". I don't see how that would hold up with no postings :confused: It would not be the first time some unscrupulous person tried this.

sometimes these OTR trucks spoil it for everyone....the Walmart on 70...think it's Clinton or Clayton went NO big trucks as well last year...they absolutely did a lot of damage to the lots and at times they took up half the parking....
That east side lot is known for a lot of trucks....
If I were in charge...I'd make like 10 spaces for trucks and the rest would have to move on...I've seen this in Arkansas....

I think you should wait at least another two weeks. Your carburetor might need rebuilt or something. :rolleyes:

Nicks got an appointment for Monday to see if they will allow him to go to work. He's doing very well, walked over a mile yesterday.
