[QUOTE="John SD, post: 1187035, member: 14713"] Back when I hauled water, it took me 6 minutes on the gravel road to get to the tar road, then 20 minutes to get to the water source, and another 20 minutes to fill the tank. Return home and empty, then come back and refill. Tried to leave a load of water on the truck at all times. Sometimes in the heat of the summer I repeated this process 3X per day keeping up with 100 pairs. If the truck went down, I had one hell of a time trying to keep up with the pickup :oops: Fortunately my worst breakdown ever during this time was a leaky honeycomb radiator, and I am thankful for a good man at the radiator shop who made it a priority to get me back on the road again. Most expensive repair in that time was a set of 4 new Firestone 900-20 truck duals :shock: Did I mention I hate hauling water? :P :P :P And I :heart: :heart: :heart: pipelines :nod: [/QUOTE]
