| Don't try to make sense of shipping routes. You'll drive yourself crazy. One seed company used to ship milo seed from Texas up I-35 to Iowa then turn around and put it back on another truck and bring back to the warehouse we were running for them. They did that with 4 semi loads per year. Finally I convinced them to let me pick it up, but then they only wanted to pay freight to our whse. I asked them why, you were paying for 660 extra miles on every load, I'll take the money, tell you I took it up there and then brought it back here:)
Similar to your tractor the last shop truck we bought in 99 was shipped by rail, but was lost. Finally they found that it had been unloaded in a transfer yard, but was not scanned in so no one knew it was there. Kind of hard to believe that it got unloaded and no one scanned it, but I doubt if it was high dollar labor. | |
