Not me, but a good friend of mine that lives here in NW KS, who also hates to drive, seems to have a burning desire to visit Quebec and Barstow. I tease him he better learn to love roadtrips or give up on the dream, because each one is quite a haul... :)
Myself, I guess I have a desire to go mess around in Texas for a while. Tour the Peterbilt plant, maybe the old Marmon plant (now Navistar Paystar line) and find a steakhouse with the "free if its gone in a hour" giant steak deal. :) Maybe go run equipment for someone too.
Otherwise I seem to find enough trips and distractions by purposely buying equipment far away from home and having to go get it. :)
It wasn’t until this year, after another member posted about the Peterbilt plant, that my memory was jarred enough to recall my dad bidding on the construction of a new building there. I was just a kid when he placed a bid for it. Was sure hoping he’d win it so maybe there’d be a day for me to come tag along and see the trucks. I lived and breathed trucks as a kid. Probably wore my folks out constantly talking about Pete trucks and just about any other machine with an engine. |
Ever been drawn or felt pulled to an area and you didn’t fully realize why?
