Cool video!!! So they load the trailer you drop in the 50 min time? I would think that the disconnect/reconnect process is at least 5-6 min per so they are loading the trailer in 20-25 min?

Maybe you leave with a different trailer than you brought in? Do you leave with the same trailer you brought in or do you just get trailer 104267 or something like that that’s been loaded and sitting for half a day or similar?

@Hickey, does your truck have a bullshit CA sticker with barcode like mine? If so, who is scanning them? I figured others may be interested as well, since at the very least it shows the power and reach CA. has to require commercial truck builders to put these on every new truck regardless of ever entering the Socialist Republic of California.

It has two. One for the Detroit engine and one for the APU engine.

@Vonski @Hickey what happens if you take that off? That sticker wouldn’t last 5 minutes on my personal truck.

I don't really know. They've been pretty resilient compared to my other decals. We've had them on our trucks for several years now and I haven't seen one come off yet. I have heard it's a big pain to replace it when damaged in a collision.

Ordered a hat from Australia, and I was ready for it to take months. Seems like it's moving along pretty quickly though. Maybe because it flew instead of coming across on a bulk freighter?

Watched "The Man From Snowy River" just the other day. Love that movie!
I have an authentic Driz-A-Bone that I bought at a shop in Bairnsdale, Victoria years ago, fantastic hat! In fact, it's my profile picture. 😁

Man from snowy river is definitely one of the greatest movies ever made.

Neat to read the original poem it’s based off and see how well they honored it

There were plans to make a movie based on the poem "Clancy of the Overflow" not long after Snowy River with Jack Thompson reprising the role of Clancy. Shame it was never made, he's a great actor. "Breaker Morant" and "Sunday To Far Away" are a couple of other great films of his.
