Scary but true, I bought 8 semi trailers today at an auction.

All are junk and rusted, but the price was right.

I got one for $700 delivered a while back. VERY CHEAP storage
building. Bet I can sell it for more at any time.

Bet you got them for under $100 each if you have to move them
yourself.

I paid a lot more than that for them. But with scrap prices where they
are, I think that I can come ahead anyway. I can cut the legs and
axles off and move three trailers per round trip to the scrap yard, on
my own flatbed semi trailer.

Here are some representative pictures

You got a hellofa lot of steel there iggy.


I am thinking each contains appx. 6-7 short tons of steel. and perhaps
some tires may be resellable.

I thought you meant cargo vans. Mine's an insulated reefer. real nice
cheap building now.


I recently saw one company that was owned by a rich hoarder. He had a
big yard, maybe 2 acres. It was completely filled with storage semi
trailer vans, full of crap, unbelievable sight.

This crap is right now on auction he

That guy already extended the timed auction, by 40 days, TWICE. (!!!!)

He believes that he has a bunch of treasures. What I see is a bunch of
scrap metal junk that is hard to get out of those semi trailers.

Really?

"Hurt" aint the word.

For Liberals, the truth is like salt to a slug.
Sunlight to a vampire.
RaidŽ to a cockroach.
Sheriff Brody to a shark
Bush to a Liberal

The truth doesn't just hurt. It's painful, like a red hot poker shoved
up their ass. Like sliding down a hundred foot razor blade using their
dick as a brake.

They HATE the truth."
