Anyone from the PNW coming out to Maine Forest with extra room in their trailer?
June 27, 2011 10:21AM
I'm looking to get my rally shell out to Portland. Mainly because I'm moving out there. Anyone happen to be heading out here and then back with an overly large trailer for the job and want to offset some of their fuel costs??

Thanks
Dave

What gearing in in the box? Final and 5th?

see where I'm going?

5th can be swapped out in maybe 1 hour and i think there's 5ths with .72.

We drove my Cossie 4x4 out when I moved back.

whatcher gonna do in Portland?

I see where you're going John... down side is the pistons are traveling in a little cardboard box when they come over...the gear box is about the only finished part of the project. oh dear what am i doing?

i'm moving for love, for life and pursuit of happiness. My life needs to slow down (dam high paced NE), I need to be with Anja and the PNW is amazing!

I don't currently have a job lined up out there. I am a mechanical engineer who specializes in initial phase design and conceptual work with a strong background in prototyping and product development. I've been stuck in the medical field for the past 5 years and would love to break into something automotive, outdoors or pretty much anything other than medical ;-) Know of anyone hiring?

Portland is the footwear capital of the US if you want to design shoes. smiling smiley

Nice choice too. I remember one time in Portland at a store grabbing beer and there was this little old lady buying two 40s and paying with a hand full of change. The cashier was almost as slow. Stood there while she counted out the change, then he counted it and put it into the drawer. Then once that was fully complete, asked if she wanted a bag and then slowly proceeded to bag them. The guy standing in front of me turns and says in a thick Boston accent, "I love Portland, but god damn it I wish people didn't move so fucking slow. No one is ever in a hurry here." Or something along that line.
Lots of good food in Portland. A good friend of mine is the sous chef at a place called Olympic Provisions. Now I want to go to Portland.

Sorry we can't help you out. There isn't enough room in the trailer and the RV needs to be empty for the people. Maybe if you had some other heavy but smaller items we could help you out.

you'll love portland. i know i do

I love Portland. Sure, I moved across the bridge into WA, but Vancouver is just a Portland suburb anyway and I still work in Portland.
