I need input from anyone who has picked up a truck there. I called and was told over the phone Tues-Thurs loadout/pickup only.....great, just like Barstow....
Any other info you can pass along is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Ed,
My friend is going out Thursday. He said he would check it out if he has the opportunity and is accessible.
Also I noticed the left front tire appears to be badly cupped. Could be the tire, could be a front end problem?

Well, I'm not new to it... but if I know what to bring short of another M35 it would really help!

Here's a link to the photo's of the truck:

Most likely the toe is not adjusted properly. Gary, if he can take a look at it I'd really appreciate it.
