    I drank a thermos full plus 1 cup from the time i woke up at 2 am till i ran out 100 miles from the turn around. Just filled it up again for the return to louisville.

    Edit to add: i normally drink a full thermos a day, 2 when it's cold out. So no extra consumption today.

    Anyone got experience with a Oil catch can? You see them mostly in Air compressors lines. Trying to find a cheaper way for my generator to replace these filters. If i can just wash that out every 1-2 weeks that might be worth it. Cuz if i use a PVC valve out of the valve cover that would just suck air wouldn't it?

    Couldn't believe this happen. Did a pretrip this morning drove about 40 miles stopped walked around and tugged on each strap. Then 90 miles later stop to fuel and see this... My dang heart stopped. Still stumped how it happend. Strap had no tears in it when I loaded this stuff. That cardboard you see in the pictures isn't even touching the straps... 20171124_060513.jpg 20171124_060513.jpg 20171124_060534.jpg

    Ended up putting coil pads under each of those straps on the 2 smaller pallets. Didn't think when I loaded it was necessary considering those pieces are smooth and round... Obviously on the big pieces I put edge protection 20171124_075007.jpg

    That was my first thought, I parked next to a guy last night and he gave me a dirty look and then moved his truck back about a foot, but he would have had to climb on top of my load to reach where it's cut... Just really don't think he would have balls like that... why not just cut one of the others if he was going to do that?
