    #### Martin, truck looks really good!! My truck has the rubber floor up front and I wouldn't give it up for anything. Makes cleaning so easy!!!

    Ive contemplated removing my passenger seat also since it has never been used. It has sat deflated so long that the air bag had a hole in it lol. I have a Elite 80 leather seat on the drivers side. I'm going to swap it for a Bostom Wide Ride LO HD soon. I need more cushion under my legs, the elite does not extend out far enough for me.

    I've given up on NODAK. I only take a load that pays $4 mile going there, as I have to DH back to Chicago for my next load anyways. Surprisingly some shippers are will to pay that !!

    I am thinking about removing the passenger seat and the top bunk...I waish I had the skills to lay a floor like that down...I finally got around to removing the cabinents behind the driver seat and that has made a huge difference, should have done that a while ago

    I'm going to evaluate the customer at each drop and see if these loads are worth the effort. Next time I may try to get more money.

    That's the ticket up there. I love going up there because its only a days drive home from any place. We never even look for a load back anymore.
