Defenitely sucks when your looking for parking, and the last update was 12 + hours ago.
I like the history function of the app. On the scales. I don't know WHY people still insist on report wrong statuses when it's pretty obvious from the history. Too bad that coops open app couldn't do that.
That new primm scale and the eastbound tehachapi scale in california have been reported open on occasion, -
Canned Spam Thanks this. -
Fuel is roughly 9-10 lbs a gallon? Got a load and trying to do the math if I'll be good or not.

I have always used 7#/gal. When you get to the mill and there is a line waiting to get in the door. Try to walk up front and see what the old timers are doing to get ready to load. Try and keep an eye on your truck because the Scum bags will go around you if the line moves. I am sooo glad I haul very little iron these days.

Something else to keep in mind the Ohio Turnpike and In. TollRoad give you 90,000. Once you are off the road you are on your own. Indiana used to give you like 7 miles with a special permit. Not sure if that still works.
Michael91184 Thanks this. -
The load is only 44k and some change, but I weigh 33k and change with half tanks of fuel. I'm going to Fort Wayne so there's no scales around that I'll have to pass.

This blog seems to be going in the toilet ha ha. With the trucker path I like the satellite mode so I can look at the available parking area. As said before you wan't to have several backup options just incase.
Michael91184 Thanks this. -
Don't get me wrong, the app is great, but sometimes the user submitted info can be a bit outdated. I use Google maps for satellite images.
