    yea was down south by LA but it was ok, flying thru those highway junctions at 55 with everyone doing the same speed and it still being packed is fun lol

    Hey Blue, watch those rest areas in Utah on the 70. Some of them the truck parking is a long easy from the hole. Found that out at a 2 am stop for the night. I never found the hole, had to dig my own. You'll probably be good in the daylight though, if that's when you run.

    dude you lost me!!!! long easy from the hole? and yeah I am a morning person, I like to start around 6am and run 8-10 hours so that I am done in the afternoon

    woke up this morning with the worst headache ever and think im starting to get a cold... i REALLY hate this state, i never get sick. my apt time for pickup isnt until 1930 but Im gonna go early, either way Im just going to be sitting in the truck rather do it where I have a chance to get loaded early, hoping to get on the road so I can hit denver for a bit on the way. not like it matters I have home time this weekend... earlier than I thought I would but its cinco de mayo weekend and I wanna go to the festival!! lol

    ah lol

    so, since I have not been successful at EVER using my card to buy oil, guess its time I asked... how the heck do you guys do it? I always have to just pay for it myself, I get the money loaded on the card but it is always declined. the pilot in denver the lady said I was getting the wrong oil, i was buying the cheap one they have thats like 16.99, begins with a K, she said try the other 2 next time. so the past 2 times I've gotten the blue bottle, but still, gets declined. im not worried about it as I always get the cash but would be nice to know how to actually use the comdata card to buy it without having to do it my way lol

    Hey guys and gals! I am going to be starting my trucking career with School at Sage Technical Services. After, I have decided to drive for May! I live 50 miles from the Payette yard, so that is where I will be doing orientation according to my recruiter. I am going to run in the Refer division. I just wanted to get any info from you guys that I can. Thanks Trucker James:biggrin_255:

    Blue, I don't think you can buy the oil by swiping the card. Since we have to go through breakdown when we want oil and they won't open the station for the purpose. I always just get the money on the card and them write a Comcheck. Takes a few extra minutes but works. Admittedly I have never tried to get oil when I am open for fuel. It might work, but I doubt it.

    On another note, I was told by Brooks that they want us to get the DELO 400 when we buy oil, blue bottle. It's what they use in the shop so they asked that I keep it consistent. Just an FYI on that one.
