Regardless, they're nice looking and fuctional rigs. It'll be nice for your neighbors to the north to have additional tankers a little closer for interstate incidents.[/quote]
Taylor, Yep you are right. My mistake on writing this up. They may, I heard, go to 16 and 21, that way it would be close to all expressways. But, one of them being assigned 5 or 10 would be better IMO. The other should be left at 21's , since that is close to all the tank farms.
I have seen the photos of the ones that went overseas, BIG to say the least!
