Semi-routine parts shuttle

Folks, I started a new job this week that has me going to most parts of the metro area and Pueblo monthly-ish. If you can meet me somewhere near I-25 and have them packaged in a way that won't leak I'll be happy to give them a ride. First run to Pueblo will be next Thursday/Friday.

Outstanding Justin!

For anyone needing to move stuff to and fro, my house is available as a way station.

This means you can drop off parts here for pick up by someone else. I will store them and do my best to be available when your buyer picks them up. Additionally, you may use my driveway as a place to personally meet someone for parts transactions.

This does NOT mean I will drive your parts 45 miles east to deliver them, call the guy who has the parts you need and beg him to deliver them to me so I can drive them to Denver, or handle cash transactions as your Bronco version of PayPal.

Sorry for the new Terms of Use but the change is necessary due to recent events.

I've got a couple of items needing a ride south, I can meet you off I-25, let me know what time you'll be through my part of town.

I'm not sure what time I'll be through there, but will know more next week. If you definitely want them on this run we might want to meet up before then. Getting stuff south will be tougher as I'll be heading down early. You'll also have to deal with me being grumbly and caffeine deprived. Not a morning person.

Get here before 6:30am and you can top off the coffee before hitting the road again.

I'm likely going down to Pueblo in the middle of next week. Let me know if you've got parts that need a ride. If they're going south, we probably need to connect next weekend or some time other than the morning I'm heading down. Not a morning person.

If I get them from Kirk they'll be going mostly west, so not really a win for you. Sorry!

I was likely going to give them to Shawn if I meet him for the plane crash trail.

Can you fit a rotisserie in your car?

Could it be set up to drive my vehicle while it's attached?

I'm headed to Pueblo tomorrow if any parts need a ride. Also, my agency is opening a Loveland center November 1. I'll be headed up there at least monthly if anything northerly needs a ride to Denver.

Possibly some shims & bearings on the northern route.

Cool. I'll for sure be going the last week in October, but may go sooner.

Im holding a winch for a guy in Lakewood. Next time you're up here you could grab it for him.

I hear he's a jerk, no way.

Thanks again for the parts recovery service.

I'd like to schedule a pickup on the north end.

Sure, will confirm when the first run is scheduled. Golf size or minivan size?

Golf, differentials shims & bearings.

I can also grab and hold until Justin is up here...if we're still talking about bearings.

Yep, bearings. I'll pm you the details & see if it's doable.
