The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk Who uses their truck as a truck?

Ol' Roy actually got to do some work the last couple of days instead of just acting as daily transportation so I guess it should go in this thread instead of the driving report. They're both pretty similar, though.

Seventy degrees here in the A-T-L. I figured it was a good time to haul some stuff to the Ritz Carlton Downtown. APD actually had the nerve to tell me I couldn't just put out some cones and block an entire lane on Peachtree Street. Fortunately I was already finished so I pulled Ol' Roy down to the loading dock. Last year when I was pulled up on the sidewalk, a cop told me to just park in the street and put some cones out. Get your story straight, guys!

Either way, this guy was cool and told me that with a chuckle and asked me to move "as soon as possible". Of course he didn't say anything to the Royal truck across the street or the US Foods tractor trailer parked a couple hundred feet in front of me.

Naturally, I got the usual compliments from passersby, city workers, Portuguese tourists, derelicts and bums, and some Mexican dude at the Ritz who assured me the truck was worth $100,000.

Yesterday I cleared some debris from a yard over by the Atlanta Zoo. It's great driving around an antique vehicle in weather like this. Actually, it's great no matter what the weather is. Antiques are the only kind of vehicles I drive anywhere and I LOVE driving.



By the way, those plants aren't dead, they're supposed to be golden color. Who's that idiot in the reflection?
