Auction Site


We ran into this by accident the other day. There were more vehicles for sale than my camera could capture, but this gives you an idea of what was going on. The site is close to and parallel to I-75 which means it gets a lot of attention.

But I wonder why these bucket trucks and cranes and other vehicles are not being used in areas devastated by recent hurricanes? Why not put them on a ship and send them to Puerto Rico?

Good question!!

Kate said...

Perhaps you should be in charge; then we'd actually get something done!

William Kendall said...

Because that would be too obvious to the current GOP governments state and federal.

Peculiar!

Bill said...

Politicians can't think beyond themselves. Take charge Lowell and fire them all and then on to Puerto Rico to help them recover.

Michelle said...

A great question! I agree with Wm Kendall's comment....

It's all about money!

Don't you know, Lowell? We're not supposed to ask questions anymore. Truth is extremely inconvenient.

Marleen said...

Must be for political reasons. But I totally agree with you.

In France, when someone is waiting, they say they're doing the "crane foot".

Good question, Lowell, but in this way you took a nice picture !

I was thinking the same thing as I read your post. They could be put to good use in Puerto Rico right now.

You also would need the skilled crews to operate them, I'm not sure they would do much good.

I have seen that site many times on my way to and from Orlando! They certainly could be put to good use in Puerto Rico. One of my cousins is a lineman for JEA in Jacksonville and he and some of his coworkers have been in Puerto Rico for weeks now helping to restore power. They were cheered by the locals as they arrived. I'm so proud of him!
