Can you move your truck to Angus? Dragon 4 is going to need to fill up quickly, or here in just a few minutes.
00:07
And if you're on Angus, he can get to you quicker and fill up.
00:11
If Brush 10 needs to fill up before you move, go ahead and fill brush 10 up.
00:16
Well, we got a knockout over here, got a control on it.
00:19
We'll go fill up 10,
00:21
and I'll move over with Angus, and he can come back down here and do the rest of it.
