With 2734 done with, and with a bike at hand, it was time for me to do the thing I wasn't able to back in 2020: venture out into areas unknown.

First up though was the old Wednesday portion of my neighborhood. This was, by this point, only seen the filming of one truck, my dearly missed 1234. Even though there was a chance of running into the already filmed 2734, I knew it wouldn't hurt to give it a shot.

Within minutes of arrival, I located this truck. It is Bridgeport Ranger 3 of 4. But with a painted steel bumper, dented tailgate, Burrtec mudflats, a crooked burgundy stripe, and mismatched windows, this unit serves as the antithesis of 2374. and there was another thing: the driver.

If that face looks familiar, that's because it is. Lord behold, this was the driver of 1204, and before that, the mythical 1234. It was both great and a relief to see him, as it now provided me with closure on my previous drivers. I did very briefly see him in a 08' Bridgeport, but it seems he opted for this pool of trucks, or the 08's weren't meant to be here, but I don't care which is the correct answer.

And another thing: of all the drivers here, he's transitioned the best to the Bridgeports, in my opinion. One of them driven by him is the most aggressive I've seen from type so far, with relatively fast arm cycles, lid flipping, and manual packing, all shown on video for all to enjoy.

But this wasn't supposed to be the focus. Since I'd already filmed brother unit 2734, I'd ventured into the neighborhood I'd be filming him in to see if there was any other truck. to my surprise, there wasn't any other, so I stuck to this one.
