    There are some very good Millis threads here. However I'm never sure if I'm crossing the line of Highjacking a thread so here's a place for Millis drivers and those considering Millis to come and speak without those concerns. Go ahead........ its your thread, What's on your mind?

    Man I was so craving that today. I was dying to get somewhere to grab one. But had to settle for a veggie omlette I made my self.

    Where did you stop for the night? Was the roads better when you came through after we talked?

    Stopped at the Erie Service Plaza, about 30-35 miles east of Toledo. I went through some snow and sleet but the roads weren't that bad. Crazy thing is I bet I saw a dozen cars spun out or crashed. I'm guessing hydro-planning. Then snow started east of Cleveland but turned to rain west of Cleveland.

    The TA outside of Lebanon Indiana has all you can eat steak, sides and salad bar! It wasn't the best steak but definetly wasnt the worst I have had. Really cute blue eyed waitress too! LOL, it will be a favorite spot for me.

    The sad truth is I haven't found decent food in any of the T/A's. Its edible but I wouldn't call it good. I think all the T/A's have the "all you can eat" menu. I was in Pembroke, NY last night and the menu was all you can eat with the exception of steak, seafood, chicken and most breakfast plates, lol. That accounted for about 80% of the menu, go figure.

    Let us know what truck you're on when you get out on the road and look for us to meet and greet.

    headed from chicago to jersey monday and saw a millis trailer on its side in median about mm 32 in ohio with those norampac rolls sitting beside it. the tractor was already towed hope the driver was ok. i was in the east bound storm from south bend till about snow shoe pa. Every hour west bound reports moved the storm further east by about 30- 50 miles. kinda sucks when you can only go about 35mph. but made it without incident and home today after leaving 12/29. woo. talk about needing a reset. be safe

    The word I got was a trainer with his trainee driving. A car was trying to pass and somehow connected with the tractor causing the front drive to blow out. Thus causing the accident and roll-over. Both were ok and thank god for that.
