Roehl Driver Check In Continued

Weekend. Phone monitors or practically useless.

 

Usually my FM sets me up for the weekend with a couple PP's. but yea now relying on weekend dispatch/planners, so not expecting much.

 

Home, don't have to deal with them. Neener. Bought some ammo at Gander, renewed car reg, online, doing laundry. Drinking beer. Back out Tue.

 

Are you home just for a reset with that intermodel run? Or whole weekend?

 

Got home yesterday, out Tue. Not intermodal anymore. Flatbed, Midwest regional now.

 

Gotcha. Have thought about switching to MR, but am afraid to drop miles as they are very good on National right now, but not a big fan of being away from home for 2 weeks either. Decisions..

 

Miles are fine with flats. Actually was near Boston last week. Strange idea of Midwest, but they say 80% Midwest. So on occasion go out a little further. It was ok though, saw parents for my birthday. Plus it was like 1500 mile run, plus had to get back.

 

Currently at the mothership in Marshfield waiting for my wife to come pick me up from MN. Truck started having weird clutch issues on the way up here from Gary this morning. Was easier to have her come get me than to move all my flatbedding equipment to a loaner truck and then back again after hometime. Plus the loaner truck didn't have auto-start, eeeewwww. Launch back out a week from Monday.

 

Lanse MI. Until Monday.
Waiting for trailer to get loaded.

Getting stuck here is not so bad.
Grocery store, food, privacy.

Headed home next week for turkey.

 

I see 500+ pages of comments on thetruckersreport.com....

Flatbed/Skateboarders, please help...

Is "Roehl" pronounced "Rail" or "Roll"?


I think it's "Rail".



Help, please. I cannot read German.
Thank you in advance.
