    I drove out in one day from new castle, so you got an hour on me. It's not bad. Took me 10 hours and 45 mins, which you may very well be doing quite often, might as well get used to it.

    You won't be driving 10hrs and 45 min every day. I guarantee that.

    Been through New Castle many times. I currently deliver tires and go from Solon ohio to new Castle and beaver falls area quit a bit. The more I talk to people on here the more I find that there is a lot of people who work for roehl around me. Males me feel better and more anxious to get started. Just wish I didn't have to wait another month.

    Lol. I was the same way. I still need to get confirmation on whether or not I can park my truck where I'd like to, but if not, I'll probably be parking at the drop yard out by you, so we may see each other around.

    The reason I don't like automatics is that they don't provide the "feathering" of the clutch you need to slide tandems, back into docks, or any of the other times you need a light touch. As far as avoiding the toll roads in Ohio and Indiana, you could drop down on I-71 to US 30. If you go that route it will bring you out at I-65 from there you could take the toll road I-294 to I-290 to I-90 that brings you to I-39. From there you just go north and take US 10 west to Marshfield.

    Wouldn't this drop yard in Mogadore be kinda far for you to leave truck if you live by new castle.

    We don't run autos. Lol. It's gonna run you about 10 hrs roughly according to my calculations. Hope to see everyone soon. You guys be safe and mostly have fun. This job has its bad days but it is what you make of it and it's a good time if you make it that way. See you guys soon
