I would like permission to use that photo in our Denver club's newsletter, and who do I give photo credit to?

They look like excellent cars, too bad about the open transport and the inevitable highway junk damage. That many will flood the market for a while!!!

I wonder how far they've traveled on the open carrier rather than an enclosed one. Money??

Pooping yourself in an around DFW area is a common thing I believe, would take a lot of guts to be responsible for that load in that area.

There is a lot of suicide doors poised to fling open on that load, if the loadmaster wasn't very cautious and knowledgeable about latching them securely. A while knuckle load, too, if the weather conditions weren't idea, including potential hail.

While kind of you to ask, you do not need permission to use this.
