I ran super single tires when I worked at E.L. Henderson. I liked them except in any snow and when running light in the rain. I ran alot of I40 and 10 so I didnt have many problems with them. looking forward to getting to sapulpa, I start on the 1st of June.

when you get your first load will they try to get you by the house so you can load all your stuff up or do you need to try and bring it all with you?

Yep and I put 90,255 miles on her. I dig up a picture of her and post it, she's a good looking bike.

Grizzlyman check your PM's a mutual friend is trying to get a hold of you.

I heard JCT is getting several new ProStars, T660's and Cascadias the first of June. Which truck do you current JCT people like best.

If they haven't changed how they do their orientations then they will have you fill out a questionaire asking you how many miles you wanna run and if you need to go home. I would recomment you bring enough neccessities with you to last the first three weeks because they don't charge your truck payment til two weeks later and ur first fillup is free. I would use these two weeks to run all the miles you can then take ur hometime.

How often do you guys get to spend 34 hour or at least 10 hour (or just stop by for couple of hours) break at home not counting home time? I know it depends on where you live but im just wondering how is that workin out for someone who is already rining with jct

I'd be curious to know how often you guys make it to the Sapulpa yard, since I live here. Do you do any pick ups here?

I'll have to treat some of you guys to a meal when you come for orientation. Good luck!
