well thats a …
well thats a bonus.Its just seems being k-28′d is a big part of the job for most perm stations with a volly truck. Maybe apart from the likes of taupo. Don’t no why they respond vollys to a pfa(unless its k88, k99or multiple calls) in large citys that already has like 3 other paid trucks going and you just no the perms are gona get there first then, it’s gona go k77 then the annoying k28-1. lol
