That's up on the turnpike. I was 70 east, the 1st rest area past the scale house. No showers. But plenty of parking and it was nice and quiet. Sitting in Eden now. About 10 drivers here waiting for loads. Not a good sign. Hopefully after my 10 something will be available.
I was thinking that after i typed it and remembered where you were heading. Been talking a bout boots in "chat" at least you can wear yours in edens showers. LOL! Hope things pick up for you. Headed out 2morow am with son. I still haven't calmed down from week I had last week. No ones fault really but a high stress few days with heavy load,no fuel(due to weight), deadlines and all scales being open etc. Was hoping to be calm and collected and enjoy a couple days home but man I just can't unwind.
I always fuel up before I pick up beer loads. If its over then they have to take it off, but being in a T6 none of my loads are light.
Yeah but this was a drop. Last time i did that took 5hours to get done. Most of which was spent getting back on property. Got my little codriver with me today though.
Got to Eden Saturday early afternoon (4:30), had to camp out for the night to take my 10. There were about 10 trucks there waiting for a load, bad sign. Needless to say I got a reset in. Monday morn got a load to the Container Warehouse, 9 miles away. Woooo hoooo. After an hour got a load of glass to go pickup and take to Trenton. Stopped at the On the Run T/S where we scale out to get a drink for the road and when I went to pull out EVERYTHING on my dash went out. Gauges/lights everything. Was told to take it to the local shop we use to have them check it out. After 2 hours they guy said he couldn't figure it out. Was told to take it to the KW dealer in Greensboro, so I drive 50 miles with no gauges, speedometer, anything. Well they didn't even get to my truck yet at closing time and here I sit in the Days Inn. So since Saturday I have had no load, sucks. Starting off a really bad week. I hope it gets better.
Glad to see mines not the only one messing up headed to Knoxville last Thursday morning and mine started not building boost again. Got empty in Knoxville and took it to cummins and it has been there since Thursday morning. Luckily i was able to come home instead of staying in a hotel.
Ok you guys are scaring me - I am off home time tomorrow and dont need these issues you're having. I feel your pain though - was there about 2 weeks ago!
