    First step - New way Scrapping

    I must be crazy , but I will make sense of it . The truck is nice , I NEED A TRAILER & all will be fine .
    Once and for all have to blend the life of a scrapper with the need of dignity.
    The gas MPG - I used the tried and true method of gas gage estimating, this truck sips
    I drove speed limit and slow to achieve speed . I drove a lot , up to my home ,
    back to town then here and there I put some miles down ,
    notice very little gas gage movement from 3/4 to half tank . I put in $10 & I was shocked almost full . I had become all to used to putting in $10
    & excepting the bottomless pit of gas thirst.
    So dramatic was my response I put in the $10 with no thought I get into truck and see almost full
    It was a Godly moment I was with my kids & was just looking at gauge with a feeling like is this happening ?
    I have a ways to go . I need money for a trailer .
    For the moment I need find a yard that will pay well for
    Computer stuff. From Binghamton NY I will drive out 250 miles
    depending of paying price Any recommendations ?

    I am back to my skill set from the 80's Painting & all that follows it
    I removed myself from the trash company I worked for as of 2 years ago
    I find scrap non the less
