has to be the hottest trip ever

Post by 6166 Junkyard Dog »

First we hope all that is in the path of hot heat wave is staying cool and also our four legged animals as well being looked after..

IT'S HOT,HOT, loaded a 72 in Van Nuys and the temp gauge showed the sun hitting the truck at 139 degrees , the air temp was around 116,,, Now in Vegas loaded 64 short bed in the morning already was 100 by yesterday afternoon it was brutal,, last nite at midnite still was a 100,, About 2 in the morning finally able to shut truck down and let our cooling system take over.. Today here not too bad showing 115 in the shade still part of truck in the shade thou, few more hours and then we will be in the whole shade since we got a good park space at the truck stop. Then get some more parts tomorrow and then to hot Phoenix

Tom has my sympathy. When on a buying trip there is no down time if you can help it. Every day on the road is costly. It takes a lot of money to take a day off when on a buying trip. Money going out and none coming in. I've been there, I know what it takes. For everyday you don't buy it will take most of the profit from anything you bought the previous day. Git-R-Done Tom, Good luck to you.
