    I have question for those of you who don't live in Virginia, did you claim exempt on VA state tax or are you paying both VA and your state?

    @WotansVolkman Alan Dan was on vacation this past week. Would think that they'd let their drivers know these things, but that's just me.

    @MidWest_MacDaddy Don't you just love Guardian? I got caught in that loop from there to TN and back. Rescued a load from a driver in KY headed to TN and did 2 more complete loops. Only way I got out of it was home time! So, technically it is a d&h but, unloading first. Gotta love that!

    As for the load acceptance macro, I only use it when I cannot make a delivery or pick up on time. That way my tail is covered. I also send a free form msg in to my fm stating why.

    Home sweet home. Got home a day late, but it's all good. Did get the lovely newer camera installed in my truck before I was allowed to go home. If I had been told to bt home the night before, I'd have been gone as soon as my 10 was up. Instead I had to wait til the morning to go and got waylaid! Does that thing ever shut off? Even with the truck off, the green light is still on.

    From what I understand, green is good. Red is when it's recording.

    I normally don't sweat it as it's normally an hour here or two there... But when one load costs me 11 hours of time, when I could have been driving another whole day... Ya, then I want it.
     
    WotansVolkman, Redtwin and chralb Thank this.
