Never notice my Missouri accent until in another state and people point it out. They say we drawww out the end of words.
Safe travels!!!

Quoted from PinDeLaPin:Accents? What do you think we are from arkansas? :DGet that damn game and post a sale pic.
Well I didn’t know lol People ask if I’m from Canada when I’m on vacation all of the time! Won’t be driving through St. Louis my dude or I would be holding down that horn a mile away just for you
t-minus 40 minutes
Quoted from ruralcollector:Do people in MO have accents?
I’m from the bootheel, far southeast corner of Misery, I mean Missouri, and hell yes, we’re straight up rednecks.
why not? Turn it into a little adventure. I've only done a 12 hour haul and my wife and I turned it into a mini road trip. Maybe find a cool restaurant or something nearby. Good luck!
Try that special Cashew Chicken!

I think we are all expecting a picture of you and the seller shaking hands after loading that machine up in your truck
Quoted from Rascal_H:Praying seller described it accurately.
Oh damn you had to go there didn't you? I would be beyond pissed off if it was not as advertised at this point.

Hah, I just had a flashback of a long drive only to say “nah, I’ll pass” and leaving disappointed. I’m sure this will go ok.
Finally 12 days later of Mousin Around you sit in somebody else’s car and take a pic
Mission Accomplished!
Quoted from Rascal_H:The decals look minty.
Yep, it is an unfaded cab. Which was one of the main reasons I bought it initially.
Was nice meeting you ruralcollector and hope you have a safe trip home. Was great chatting for a bit
Quoted from chad:Half way woo hoo!!
Now grab a couple Monster energy drinks and hammer down on that gas pedal.
Wow, you actually did it!
Those last 4 hours are the hardest, get some coffee.
How much was it with gas and food? Please let us know.
I'm on my third Mousin, so I get the crazy.

Last 4 hours here we go! Starting to feel it I’ll calculate it when I get home but all in all around $150, but I don’t stop and eat regularly...
Quoted from dozer1:You at Albert Lea or there abouts?
Yep! Just about to pass the border
Welp, know your limits. If you feel drowsy, find a room. If you are feeling fine, then cool. Just be careful.

I got here late but I hate to say I have a mousin around in my cabin in walker I’ve been trying to get rid of for a couple of summers
Quoted from Yoxxy:I got here late but I hate to say I have a mousin around in my cabin in walker I’ve been trying to get rid of for a couple of summers
Y O U W H A T?! Lol I knew something would turn up after I got back.. still wouldn’t change a thing unless yours is nicer!
Quoted from Yoxxy:I got here late but I hate to say I have a mousin around in my cabin in walker I’ve been trying to get rid of for a couple of summers
Seems like mousin around doesn’t pay off
Quoted from wolfemaaan:Seems like mousin around doesn’t pay off
The moral comes full circle
Quoted from Blitzburgh99:The new question....does he set it up and play a game tonight before the stroke of midnight?
You’re damn right I am!
Quoted from Yoxxy:I got here late but I hate to say I have a mousin around in my cabin in walker I’ve been trying to get rid of for a couple of summers
Haven't been trying very hard.
As promised for Blitzburgh99
The story has come to an end folks. I’ve been up for 48 hours and drove for 24 of them and I would be damned if I didn’t play this pin before I crashed. It’s -14 right now so I brought the machine into the house vs. the game room in the detached garage. I’ll post more pictures tomorrow in the lineup but once again I want to thank everyone for having fun with me the last number of days in this thread and the support to keep me going today so this mouse could make it home safely.
Sincerely,
Peter
P.S. Want to give a huge shout out to Gov for his flexibility and willingness to facilitate in making all of this happen. He’s a solid dude.

Maybe I’ll continue my Taxi journey in this thread for tomorrow. Not nearly as crazy as yours but will be fun nonetheless
