Bruenger Co Lease

Amen Stormy.. Learning routs and fuel are such an importian part of this job.. The good news is that some of this last weeks fuel was on that settlement so, this weeks check wil be just that much better..

Sounds like we just lost the first driver from our group.. Don't know what happen but kind of sad to hear.. Was hopping that we all made it.. It is a very doable business, I'm sure we all hit hick ups but this is why it is so importian to put a little money aside from each settlement.. starting next quarter I purchased a program that wil separate my pay, and taxes, from profit. It will allow me to put my pay in one account, my taxes and social security in another and my company profit yet in another.. This will insure I always have money to pay taxes, money in my business account for tires, oil changes and my payroll is needed.

For those a that are reading even tho I had a negative this week, I calculate that this comming up week will be some where between 2,700 and 3,000 after every thing is payed so still averaging around that $1500 even with a bad week..

I am really enjoying being home again this week.. Let's see how long Wisconsin can keep this rotation up for me..

 

Nice man.. Well u know what they say, there's nothing sweeter that a big old Peter.. Hope u win the lottery on your way to Denton..

I have been kinda of lucky that my wife works so we piggyback her insurance.. If anything ther ever happened I think we would be in trouble..

I would be fine as a company driver also, I think there is money out here for anyone working for it.. In the end game we all get the same thing the freedom of the open road..

 

This is the best job in the world..there is no greater felling than drinking Coffey, driving down the road chasing the American Dream!! If you have a positive can do attitude you can do this!!

 

So as I was pulling out of my house today and heading down the road, I noticed some red and blues behind me. Thinking they where just passing, I pulled to the side and of course they pull right behind me..

The Officer walked up and I have my license in hand to give it to him. He looks at me and asked what I was doing? I replied working? He said, let me explain why I pulled you over. ok? You ran the stop sign! I said nope, pretty sure I didn't do that! (There was a construction zone where they had a car and a 1/2 length to pass through, so I stopped back where ther was two car lengths before continuing.) The officer said I seen you do it!! I again said no, you didn't see me run a stop sign and I'll see u in court if u think u did.. He asked well if u did not run where did u stop? I said, right before the lane condenses and you can only drive one car through! He said, that's a little far back. I said you have no defined line indicating where to stop, so I stopped where I felt it to be safest.

I guess he must of figured my reason made since because he gave me my license and told me it was not worth arguing about and walked away.. Dam right it was not worth arguing about, because I stopped.. Lol

Anyway I think it's time to get a camera in my truck.. Maybe I will buy one in the next few weeks, there are so many people who try to blame us truck drivers for incidents that I feel this would be some assured insurance..

Does anyone use a camera and if so what is a good model?

 

I love seeing a classic Cabover restored and burning down the road.. Wish I had the money to restore one to pristine condition.. I would haul with it.. She would be a money maker..

Also isn't there a grandfather clause in the Cabover that would allow to run through Cali without an EGR system.. ??
