JBS Carriers Greeley Colorado

Got my first route plan today. Supposed to go up I-29 from 70 to 80. Anybody tried it lately? I guess it is still a mess in spots. Just wondering how bad it still is.

 

FYI I-64 over the river into and out of Louisville is closed. Most all traffic routed to I-65 bridge and is a parking lot much of the day. Avoid it if you can or check to see if it is now open.

 

It won't reopen for at least 5 more months.

 

Rumor has it that the Governer of Ky whats to make a toll road out of the I-64 bridge. Heard 2 local drivers talking about it. just hear say. I know that that bridge and road needed repairs.

 

Well according to our guys in Greeley, 10 amps is a normal draw to run a small fridge so either the dealership guys were lazy or stupid!..................

They also wanted $250 to do an A service so I am at the TA in Vero Beach getting it done now!

 

for all the guys waiting to hear from me, i have been removed from fleet 19. hip hip hooray. i am now on fleet 6, with jeremy. i hope all goes well on this fleet. only time will tell. but i have a good feeling so far, yes i know its only been a week. but a better week at any rate compared to flleet 19.

 

i got my first one today as well. and when i got it i was down to a 1/4 of a tank and it said to fuel in effingham, illinois. mind you i was at the bottom of arkansas and was headed north to pick up a load and head to indiana. so i got on the phone with the dm, and i was told we can still fuel at the approved company locations. aka pilot/flying j, loves, the stops in our fuel book. and all that message was, was just a simple suggestion and i was still able to fuel where ever i wanted too.

 

Yeah when you send your starting your deadhead message make sure you are cautious about it, if you have 4/8 of a tank, tell them you have 3/8 just to be safe!

 

I will fuel where they want me to if it's reasonable, I am not gonna go out of my route, nor will I go to certain truckstops that I know are a PITA!

Example, my current run says to fuel at the Flying J in Midway, FL.........NOPE!

That exit sucks and so does getting in and out of that truckstop!

 

Did that route just today. Road is in ok shape but there is one lane in 2 places. Hold your breathe when you hit the area that was flooded. Smells kind of moldy.

When you get to xt 10 in IA, all the signs say that Sapp brothers and everything else is closed. Sure saw a lot of trks down there tho.
