I could imagine what it would be like if the driver swerved around an object on the road how that train of cars would snake, might get wild.

Thanks GIG. The customer is a local couple. He works for the local power company and she works at the local dentist office.

Let me guess, the one going 21 mph would be in the left lane trying to pass the one going 20 mph right in front of me on a two lane deserted highway in West Texas with a speed limit of 85 mph.

I posted the reason they said. It's supposedly going to a very remote area.

Thanks, guys! That's actually one of the buildings belonging to a church camp. No snow at my place! It was the last piece of pavement I could get a hold of to prep the truck for the deep snow. The trail quickly got covered in a couple feet of snow, and lesser vehicles (jeeps and chevs) were getting stuck left and right. Had to reverse down a steep, narrow, snowy hill after seeing that 27 trucks were marooned ahead. Couldn't turn around, but I did end up helping a bunch of people get unstuck on my way down.

The countertops were installed by a company called Prestige. The island is out of place, it's on dollies right now until the floors are done.
