Was driving through Binghamton NY on a business trip today and saw a truckload. This picture may make some future owners in that area happy as it is on the way.

Wish one of those were mine, but then again, the truck would be going in the wrong direction.

Kinda humorous that the auto trailer is under a "UHAUL" sign.

I always like seeing these car haulers, especially if they are carrying new Vettes...
