    Easy day today.
    Got 'Ol BLue' a wash this morning, had been a month and she was looking pretty trampy. Man, she sure cleans up purty!! Even the truck wash guy was admiring her. Probably just wanted a big tip!
    Drove the 150 miles down to my live unload in Miami. Mama mia, traffic in Miami is as bad as LA! The unload took about an hour.
    Then I drove 210 miles of the 250 back up towards Orlando for my pickup on Saturday. I am currently parked at the Pilot off of Exit 55 on I-4. Taking my 34 here. Pretty new Pilot, don't remember it being here before....
    Time to hit the load board and see how I'm getting out of Aberdeen MD on Sunday. Fingers crossed............

    I live very close to Aberdeen Md. There is a can plant here that i remember bringing soda cans to from mass when i was with Schneider actually that was my last run before I quit. There are 2 Pilots and a TA just north off of 95 near Perryville Md and you also have the Hollywood Casino in Perryville it overlooks the I-95 scale house/ Md state police JFK barracks/ toll facility. They have been sitting 2 and 3 wide in the mediums on 95 north the just got black ford and chevy pickups with heavy tint you don't know it until the the lights come on then it's too late you are committed to the policeman's ball donation although if you keep it around 65-70 they leave you alone the are going after box trucks and cube vans looking for drugs seen a few people in handcuffs. dont get caught talking on your cell phone here that's an automatic $80 ticket now and if you take I-70 near Baltimore and the scales are open no matter how backed up it may be do not I repeat do not pass it they will come after you that's also true for the one on I-95 on the north side of 495 going around DC.

    Yeah that is very cool. Going down to look at the truck tomorrow. Hope the 2012 is ok, don't know which engine it has, but if it all checks out I'll take it I guess.i guess the inventory changes pretty fast.

    Yes it changes daily pretty much. Most likely it will have the dd15 in it. Mine has an isx in it with a 13 speed.
