    hey dabs hope ur feelin better, got a lil more info on willcox for ya. eurofresh has another greenhouse in snowflake, AZ and we shuttle those loads down to willcox too, so u could b waitin for product from there to complete ur load. in my short time with JCT i have been to willcox several times and all pickup times were 1400-2000. have only left there b4 2000 once and was the last truck out once. i learned the first time take supplies. get there as early as possible, check in, and hit the bed. they will wake u to load ya. see ya on the road!!

    We booked it out of Wilcox after loading. Sorry we missed you! Don't mind Alan... he feels rejected but it is not intentional I keep telling him.

    Alan... we are on I 20 heading to Keller for a morning drop... then on to MO. Where are you???

    Hmmm... I would go with that... but Vette can vouch that Randy is real as he has met him/us!

    I kindof thought of the blow up auto-pilot guy from "Airplane"... Otto, but you guys would have a field day with that so... I'M NOT SAYING IT!!! LOL:biggrin_25525:

    Sitting in Dallas TX at the infamous cold storage, I was warned about getting stuck sitting here for 24 hrs to get unloaded. I get here and they tell me my appointment was yesterday morning my Qcom says 2/15 and they probably won't get me in today and if so it will be around 2200 tonight. I've contacted JCT, looks like this load will be going to Ft. Worth or someones going to come up with $$$$.

    On a 10 week average we are getting 5.63 actual MPG with the Big Bird and that figures to 5.25 paid MPG for us. There has been extra idling due to blizzards, idling in general (no APU), minor maintenance and unpaid miles since we use the truck on down time, etc. It could be better if some of our habits were different.... but it is what it is for us! :biggrin_25525:

    Our miles:
    December - 13,114
    January - 11,354
    February - 12,358

    I know some of the other guys are booking more miles than us, so don't just go by our figures!
