Lets see, I guess I would live in Extreme South Western NYS...
I always figured the cut off was Interstate 84, anything south and east of the interstate was "DOWNSTATE" and anything North or West was "UPSTATE".
Welcome to the site, not having been here long, I can say there are some great...

It was until just a few years ago that ALL pickup trucks in NY recieved Commercial License Plates. There was a change due to the commute in the NYC metro area with the parkways and NY decieded that pickups under 5500lbs could recieve passenger plates if requested, then they were sure that the...
Licensing in NY
Vehicles in NY are licensed by GVW not curb weight. You might get DMV to let you license below the 5500lb limit and get your passenger plates, but if you get stopped towing a trailer or with a bedload of dirt, look like your working, and they weigh you and your over the GVW on...
Is the BARC at the transportation museum at Ft Eustis? Its been over 30 years since I have been there, my dad was stationed there in the mid 70's. Every thing looked BIG when I was 6, but i remember seeing the BARC or a LARC, and actully being able to go into them. I also remember a deep sea...

Thats a good deal that you found someone.
HUSTLE is the name of the game in most businesses, but it really stands to truth in trucking. You have to be willing to do what others will not.
I believe you mean "LTL" Less than Truckload, there are many open carriers(flatbed, step/drop deck, auto carriers) that load several different items going generally in the same direction, that pay generally less than a truckload rate. 86 cents per mile for a little less than a half of a...
NY does not and will not issue an title for any vehicle older than 1973, you can register a vehicle with just a bill of sale(it must also acceptable VIN number), aslong as the vehicle is not reported stolen or somthing is fishy with the vehicle in the DMV computer.
