everyone complains about not getting enough miles. but man. 3500 miles is way too much for me. i wouldn't complain about losing 500 miles.
of course, by the time friday comes along. it's break time.
so far i've mt'd in the mornign. and have had to wait till evening for the reload. kinda screws up my weekend.

General Question. Any one Else's company going to the Prostars with that On Guard system that not only beeps incessantly in traffic, disconnects cruise, and also, applies the brakes if closing traffic, approaching construction or curves too quickly?
Seems like that system would be very unsafe in fowl weather or bad road conditions.

I am still playing with the local idea. I am working with dispatch on trying to get a dedicated run still though.
Finally made it home. I had 7 min left on my 70 till 0100 tuesday. So I got a load out of Erie for tomorrow morning. I have in probably 1300 miles for the week already. And I plan to be home next weekend. So no restart.

Sounds like a good deal to me lol, think we will be in Vegas tomorrow in the early am but sounds like ur heading a different way this week!!
So far touch wood have never had a problem with the droid nav even in Commiefornia it sometimes wants to take us to the front of the building but so far has been pretty spot on!
JJ wanted to buy the Rand McNally and its not sounding so great hmmmm will rethink that one!
Could through a line in the river right behind me but its to #### cold from 86 back to 46 in 15hrs sucks!

Looks like I may be running from Erie to Baltimore the rest of the week. Will still have really good miles in though, and it is an easy run. Plus it will get me home for the weekend.

Was supposed to be heading to Chester, NY but plans change. Picked up another tlr with problems in Liberal, biggest being 2 broken floor joists. Had me take it to Olathe and while there, they changed my plans. Had to do an over nighter, on very little sleep, and am now in Amarillo. Now I'm waiting on a 2 drop load, with the 1st in New Orleans. Woo Hoo!!!! Wonder how close I'll be to the French quarter?? lol

Better take your hip boots. It's mighty wet down there

Well now I'm just confused. Always thought hip boots were needed when the BS got to deep.
