Well, the two Pilot trucks made it here. The rest went to Wilton. I have another bunch coming over the rest of the week, but some are coming up behind the storm. That'll be here on Thursday. I may have a load in on Saturday and then the rest should be here (in storage, not at my house) the following week. A few oversize loads will be here behind the storm, brought by flatbed I presume.
Because of the weather, we gotta hose everything down. They've been out in a wet and salty environment - which would probably be okay but I want to reduce all risks, so they get hosed off completely.
J still doesn't know. Her birthday is coming right up. The two loads we got here were just some stragglers and some SUVs that I'm going to sell unless J picks them. I got a good price on all of 'em. So, they'll sell just fine. Hell, they'll probably sell with enough profit to cover anything J actually chooses. I'll pretty much be giving her a nice vehicle that cost me next to nothing at the end of the day.
How many vehicles fit on a truck? You must have something like 20 of them coming! Were you there to see the vehicles when they got there?
8 per truck, generally. The very expensive rides in enclosed trucks, but that's a bit more expensive. So, most anything under 6 figures comes on the same kind of truck you see delivering new cars to a car dealership.
I had no choice but to be here. LOL They're not gonna deliver 'em without me here. This is the kinda thing where you show ID.
I can designate another recipient and usually a passphrase. They'll call me and ask if the passphrase is correct. This isn't a UPS delivery. They take this shit seriously.
Each carrier can fit from 5 to 9 vehicles, all things considered. These held 8 'cause they were fairly large.
Setting up the shipping for each vehicle was why I was on the phone and 'net for an extra few hours after the auction was done.
The bigger enclosed stuff fit 4 vehicles inside them.
Does everything you have seen look as good as expected so far?
Have the enclosed loads showed up yet?
