So why are there now ramps on my frame..... ...and this big beacon light? Because the new carrier 2 whom I am leased requires it. ;D ;D ;D I am now with Diamond Transportation System. It's one of the oldest machinery haulers in the US. We run flatbeds, stepdecks, and RGN trailers. I love variety anyway, and this change has been a long time coming. I've had a few big goals this year. 8 weeks ago, I quit smoking(I'm glad the crankiness finally went away ) , and now I have a new job. Those were my 2 biggest goals for the year. My first load was simple. Run a stack of company trailers to a customer. From that customer, CASE IH of Goodfield, IL, I'm taking 2 plows to Georgia. I got tired of barely getting paid, and putting important things off. That's why I left the "non-profit" Organization I was working 4 and came to Diamond. It will make for great reference pix, too. My other goal: Get a set of 1/4 or 1/2 fenders(Can't decide, leaning towards 1/2. The one on the right side fell off July '08), and get some body work done.

Let me know when you get to the Case plant in Sturtevant WI. (Racine) and get some of the tractors to carry. I'll meet up with you and we can chit chat. I live about 10 minutes from the Case plant on Hwy 11. The Diamond Transport Lot is also not far away. Just south of Hwy 11 and just west of Hwy 32 (Sheridan Rd). Another 10 minute drive from my apt.
