White Stallion

I consider the most important tool to the operation of the business as being the 1986 Ford truck I have driven for the past 5 years.  The truck was bought used with a Waste Vegetable Oil (WVO) conversion put on the rear fuel tank and was run primarily on WVO donated by local restaurants in Portland.  On the first long journey to Baja Sur, Mexico, the truck was named the "white stallion."  A few close calls with nature, tons of lumber and debris transports, a working stint in southern California, hundreds of miles per week,  and this truck fires up every morning with the let's get to work attitude.  This truck may not be the prettiest, may pour out diesel smoke, may be overly loud, and squeak, but there is nothing that will stop the stallion from getting a job done.  Here are a few pictures of the last 5 years.
