    Change of plans. Brewery load cancelled. Now picking up appliances are Whirlpool near Dayton and taking them to Virginia. Amazing how fast things change. Lol

    Do the trucks have cameras in them?

    No cameras in the truck unless you put in your own dash cam

    First run is complete. Put in about 420 miles today. We are parked at the Lowe's we're delivering to in the morning and then head to a Gatorade plant here in Virginia and deliver to Indy.
    Got to drive through the mountains inn this run. What a great bit of experience for my first run. Man am I on cloud 9 right now.

    Day is done. Took Lowe's forever to hand unload the appliances. High tailed it ove to Wytheville, VA to pick up 43k lbs of Gatorade to run up to Indy. First trip thru the mountains loaded that heavy and loved every minute of it. Put in about 500 miles today. Drop this load tomorrow after our 10 and then pick up another Lowe's load to take to the Findlay, OH distribution center. After that, another Whirlpool load going to PA. Should be a fun one tomorrow.
