    Well to be honest, when I was in there I was in a single bunk K-100 and had a 48 ft trailer.

    It jumped to about that much difference back in 2015 when Cali implemented their cap and trade program.

    Cali has higher sales and fuel tax rates than AZ. Added on top is the special added bonus of the Cali Carbon "not a tax" which adds another 30 to 40 cents per gallon.

    For those not in loop... WA has started the same kinda program with about the same results. The reason why now WA fuel is about the same price as CA.

    This one is off 291 in Independence, called Geospace. The turns weren't terrible. The main problem was the nice lady told me how to get there for a sightside back, but it would have been a lot easier as a blindside to get to that dock. Not enough room to bend it right in, had to go back and forth about seven times to get the rear end over and the truck straight.

    I will say you have something in your favor already. You don"t mind asking and you seem to present yourself as" Here
    I am, what do you want me to do for you." Couple of good traits a lot of people can recognise, and reward you for.

    Well— 2 beers in and working on a third and I had a visual of Dave (him quoting Meatloaf songs and all) singing to the OM go’n down the road — does that qualify as weird???

    All well and good so long as it doesn’t lead to your getting taken advantage of, and in my line of work that potential most certainly exists.
