It all started out as a normal trip. If running with Gimpyrobb,Hatteras4164 ,an Docfarmall could be normal. It all started friday afternoon with Curt helping load the 105 trailer for Chvss65 and Ranchhoppers truck to go to chicago that night when Gimpy gets there add a hard top and we are off to chicago . not a dull moment all the way to Chvss65's house drop his trailer very nice fellow. So some how while crusing tword Ranchhoppers we miss the turn buy a few miles after bach tracking we found it ( i had to put that in or Gimpy would have told on me since i had the directions ) its getting colder and snowyer all the time . We get to Ranchhoppers and drop his truck off and drop trailer then set out to find Hateras's truck luckly its in behind a wendys grab a bite and it fires right up surprize Craig had already been there got it up and running good job . Nice truck too grab title and its off we go back to Ranchhoppers to dismember this truck so we can haul it home runs pretty good needs a tuneup and carb overhaul . Once back at Hoppers we take the bed off and put the cargo bed on and load it to the hilt. Then in the snow and frigide cold put it on the trailer and load the 185 box behind it . Not bad were pull out round 10pm get lost a second time (not my fault) finally getting to rising sun round 0700 today south of chicago we hit ice and snow so 40 to 50 was tops till we get to rising sun gimpy give me a breack for a while then when we got to rising sun in sheet of ice let me try to make it up the hill to Andyindy's which i can say DID NOT happen went bout 60' up and broke traction then didnt have enough bakes to hold us and were are sliding back down a few inches at a time this is not funny bout this time here comes a lil car down hill it the sweet lil waitress from jacks place we get to go on by and we are still slipping down alittle faster now building a lil more speed then bout the lenght of the rig she starts up oh crap so its time for the real stunl show and down we go out on the highway just luck shear luck out the road we go taking the long way to Andyindys . drop truck and trailer off . and getting some rest . I no i no pics will come later today as with the rest of the story of unloadin since we are headed that way in a bit. Just for the record Thanks for all that helped in the moving of these 2 trucks ( no more cold weather recoveries for me lessin its close to home or a dire need).
