    They weren’t worth a #### to begin with. So it’s no great loss

    What ya mean. Surely paying your drivers 75 cents a mile to run a 4 axle truck means ya got some hot freight

    Surely we could do 269 miles in 11 hours…..

    sadly we did 221 miles in 9.5 hours and our trooper ran out of hours

    so we are in a closed rest area 45 miles from PA with no trooper!

    How do you get through tree canopies that are 12 ft tall when you are 3.5 ft taller?

    If that trooper was Buford T Justice you’d be at your destination already

    well a different trooper just forced us to move out of the rest area onto the on-ramp

    said the gas leak is more dangerous than the stupid drivers on I-76 that are going to kill us.

    I sebates to just short of jail…

    I took his info and thanked him for killing us.

    it is a good thing I am a pacifist at heart

    Well, you’re over in our neck of the woods. Thankfully I’m down south of Lexington heading north with an easy load. If they park you in the first rest area on 80 in Pa, I’ll wave as we go by tomorrow.

    Excavator with vibrator pile driver, pita to tuck under, really didn't want to lay over. Fun feature on the excavator, the extra 10,000lbs counter weight, thing put the tipping point another 4 feet back or so. And since that pile driver is completely free swinging and not in any way powered position wise, I got an advanced lesson in just how much dangly attachments jump around at the slightest movement. Got smooth on the controls and easy on the controls real fast. Course then I didn't feel so bad because the operator that I delivered it to after I handed it over to him, near hit the machine with it.

    Then got a shuttle wagon, rides surprisingly good.... I mean physically driving the thing....

    Rides like crap on deck.
