    I am amazed at what she pulled out of the Kansas scrap yard and just that it was even there. Did giant magnet electromagnet remind me of two things. The Toy story movie where the little toy aliens say the claw the claw. And also when I go to the scrapper with a friend of mine sometime just on my own and they use that big electromagnet to pick up the car off the trailer. It seemed like a trailer want to come up in the air too.

    The airport van or whatever it might turn out to be is really neat. It's longer than the traditional van like that. I think Dodge called it a d100. That one looks like being great shape. If I was thinking about buying it I would have been tempted to roll up the window 🪟. I know it gets really hot and parts of Kansas topping 110 degrees at times. So if you want to have the window down just a tad. But not halfway down. My opinion. Now I've never seen one of them extended like that. I wonder if it came from the factory that way?

      @gaspumprob I've got about three locations on my agenda when I do get back that direction it's time to video some pumps. And I just remembered since my prior recording device broke I think I had like 50 lbs on that one. 50 different videos probably. And they were all unedited. I get a chance to go down to Iowa I know right where they're at. If I can find time to do it again

      @gaspumprob I was reading today where they said conservatively the gas tax in California is going to go up another 65 cents a gallon. Since nothing's really that conservative in california, I think I might be more inclined to believe the higher estimate of $2 a gallon tax increase.
