      Hey Mr Vincent this song truck I'm looking at right here it's an older pay bill or Kenmore yeah it's a possibility that it can be mine can we investigate it and see I just the story he's telling just don't add up I don't know I just yeah I had a lot of nice kenworths older ones it's a really nice trucks and I just got a feeling that he's got b o o t h financing and if he does it went through Karen and which means it went from my farm and I believe in Mike and Asian and again here they are you know with the possible cuz he always interview her customers where the stolen trucks are just like blue leasing and gray and Green Bay you know every truck they had was my truck yeah Johnny and I went up there and got every one of them remember Johnny it was 30 something trucks yeah that they had to bring back to Michigan that were all financed to Bill o t h and then I wound up buying the company yeah which I want to talk to you about that you Mike and you Johnny and Jason I want to talk to you about that I ask you once you get those trucks cleaned up I think we're going to put them back in service but it'll be operated by ledford yeah okay so yeah we need to we're going to put that yeah so Britney you need to or brownie Brandy brandy you need to get that blue leasing make sure it's all the paperwork is done under Electric vehicle we bought it here for a week or so ago yeah we bought all the authority and everything so yeah I get it all done and right on the operators know that we own that company now yeah blue leasing out of Green Bay John ledford bottom out John legend see you yeah so they're owned by you know the electric corporations her companies for a real call again yeah I think Mr Vincent I want to get you to LLC every one of them yeah all of them and get it all done yeah all of them every company we own including the airlines yeah let's get it let's get everything done and done correctly including the airports yeah yeah let's get everything done I want to make sure we check our insurance on the airports too find out what we got and what we need to get and let's get it yeah Johnny and Jason you really do need to get a truck come down here just come down okay and let's put this thing behind us well quit telling me you're going to do it and actually do it if not Johnny I am going to have Mr Benson go ahead and roll charges against you and Jason because you were just as much to blame as Karen you were doing exactly what she told you to do so you either comply or Mr Vincent Will roll charges and that's it I mean I'm not going to play anymore games I'm done playing your little game that you want to play cuz you're not going to get anything if you don't reply and face up to being part of the family I believe Dewey Mr Benson is a damn nice guy I know he's got his faults but I believe he is a hell of a good guy bubba he's a nice guy but he got sticky fingers yeah things tend to walk away when he's around just like Johnny and Jason they tend to walk away right so Johnny Jason I need you to get on that and get them trucks cleaned up and ready to go all them trailers and Rob boxes we don't need them all that's 17 cents we don't need those two refrigerated trailers I want to keep the stainless steel yeah but anything that's white goes back so that's stainless steel one can be taken to my house and put in my barn and become one of my trailers it's a nice looking trailer yeah yeah so it's it goes there so I don't know I'll probably be the only one that that refrigerator traders are just their temperamental you can't really drive a forklift inside of it breaks the floor and then the trailers useless you know so you got to be careful what you call and when you call it and the forklift driver he's bouncing in it when he goes in the trailer will be destroyed by the time he gets it loaded yeah cuz it flexes anyway and when it starts bouncing it just rips the floor out of them yeah they can be repaired but it's expensive yeah sometimes depending on how old the trailer is is it worth doing it you know if it's a new trailer yeah you know because you're looking at 80 sounds on for a 5th and 10 or 15 year old trailer it's pretty well run it's of course on what it's worth and most time they're worth about 5 to 1,000 bucks no matter how pretty it is $5,000 is what it's worth if it's broken up in the back anybody will tell you that and 5 till 10000 I wouldn't put any more than that in it $5000 bucks and I bought a bunch of them and fix them yeah Carlos to tell you I fixed a bunch of them have we Carlos you know and it just really

    My dad go into a insurance scammer, he turned right in front of him on a two lane , you could see on the skid marks the the way the guy turned was like he was trying to get my dad to hit him cause his direction of travel wasn't toward the side road, and on top of that the driver was only in the country for 2 weeks and had no licenses, insurance and didn't own the car.. my dad swerved to miss him clipped his front left on the car then hit a telephone pole in the ditch . He totaled his 97 kw w900 flat glass with a 3406 cat😑 luckily everyone walked out of it okay!

      The first known usage of "truck" was in 1611 when it referred to the small strong wheels on ships' cannon carriages, and comes from "Trokhos" (Greek) = "wheel". In its extended usage, it came to refer to carts for carrying heavy loads, a meaning known since 1771. Can't get more 'artier' than that! 😉
