Anybody want anything from Ontario?

I’ve honestly never hauled this much pipe before. But I know how trucking lanes work and it makes sense that oil fields are going to trade pipe like this.
Although the last time I was in Texas I brought pipe home for agriculture use out of Houston, to Ontario

Oil fields are funny, a lot gets shipped in but not much gets shipped out. Mines are the same way
 
Wow how thing have progressed, that "sucker" unit is first rate. Any pipe we stung was just chain wraped with a chain that was anchored to a cat or something and then we rolled the truck ahead, just dropped the pipe off the back of the trailer.

Roswell is a neat city

The UFO museum is out of this world :D
 
The forecast is pretty good (above freezing for the next 10 days and no amounts of snow) for up here so the roads should be like summer driving. Cant say about the Utah- Idaho, it can be pretty rough through there with spring heavy snows....Good luck man.
