Hello from Iowa

Hi everyone, My name is Ray and I'm from a small town in Iowa. Was a otr truck driver for years and finally got a local job. Then the ecomomy went down. Every year now I get layed off from my job and need extra money to make ends meet. Last year I had an old ambulance I decided to scrap out. Made enough out of it to pay for the initial cost so I didn't lose any money. That introduced me to scrapping. So I've only been at this for about a year. Found your forum and have learned a lot from it. Usually check everyday to learn as much as I can. Retirement will be coming up in a few years so I figure this will give me something to do instead of just setting around. Hoope to be with the forum a long time.

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the intro. From the Twin Cities but live in Denver now.

Welcome to the Forum, MelRay. I grew up in SW Iowa, myself.

People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.......Love your line...
