    GL Jefferson City MO.

    When I went there You didn't have to go on base which made pickups easier. If I remember correctly you would cross the railroad tracks and turn right and the storage yard was on your left.

    Newb to the Deuce

    :ditto: what these to gentlemen have said. Be aware that these trucks are not allowed to be parked in some residential ares. They have 3 axles and by some local codes that makes them commercial.
