Was wondering how long it would be.....It might be confusing...."I thought their trucks are blue,white,grey.tan,........"
 
My TM posted a note about buying an #88 diecast.

I'm a Jeff Gordon fan myself.

I woundered why my TM would think any of us were interested in this purchase?
But again I get my UPS Freight education from the truckingboards.

This could be collectors item some day like the toy rig they gave us on the launch date.

Seeing I'm on the other side of 62,its doubtful that I'll be around long enough for this car to go up in value.

Ah what the hey maybe I'll purchase one anyway.

The new colors are agreed to be a hodge podge of colors, tan,blue white grey and rust, lot's of rust, and if we are lucky it will be a used salesperson's car and they will paint over the rust!!!!!!.

My new jobclass is "Freight Redundancy Specialist".

This Person will have the ability
to tolerate mentally challenged dispatchers
who excell in the art of ignorance redundancy,
and can withstand driving 18 wheelers at
top end speeds in circles.:nutkick: :biglaugh: :biglaugh:

Well, if your a Dale fan, enjoy it while you can. He'll be leaving Robert Yates in 07 to drive for Micahel Waltrip Racing (Toyota) :TR10driving03:. There is talk that UPS might go with him but it's still undecided who his primary sponsor will be.
 
I guess if your a global company..

it matters little if you sponsor a foreign vehical.

So much for buying American.........
woops, my mistake?

Thats Generous Motors moto.

Yeah and, what ever happened to racing?
NASCAR was a good old boy,American sport?

If everything goes out of the country,who will be left to pay all the taxes due to support the United States Government?

So many questions?
Now who has the answers?

No this isn't a riddle,just an old timer rambaling on,about our new company,and the state of our country.
Oh yeah and, the sport of stock car racing that I've watched since all the tracks were dirt.

I heard that one of his sponsor's will be the Duct tape company.
 
Well if you are going to watch that UPS car race, you better buy yourself a widescreen tv because he is never in camera range until he wrecks

It doesn't matter what you drive as long as your in the race,RiGHT???? If he drives the UPSF car does he not get paid for pit-stops or have to pay for the gas????
 
Yeah poor D. J. isn't doing very good these days.

I don't think its a money problem.
Heaven knows his car owner must be racking it in with all the advertising the car gets.
Maybe not while its ridding around on race day.
They have to use GPS to know what place its in during the race.

UPS gets a lot of play with Dale, and the UPS commercials about him racing the package truck.

Thats kind of funny,they get more bang for their advertising bucks,when the cars being promoted somewhere other than the race track.

You know as much as I love driving truck for a living,I can relate to Dale that I to don't want to race my big truck.
 
Hey Mud-Flap are you like about 90% of fans that..

like to see the crashes?
I'm with you.
I'm a Jeff Gordon fan,I love it when others get wreaked.
It gives him a better chance to finish in the top five,or ten.

Only thing is that when he wreaks the race is over for me.
Funny that maybe a dumb way of watching races,but when my guy is out,I don't have anymore interest in the rest of the race,and could care less who wins.
 
I got some more info tonight..

it costs $32.00,I'm not sure of the size?
The item #112787.
Phone number to order 1-800-909-6471.

Hope this helps everyone that wants one.
