    Went outlaw this morning. Dipped in and oit of OK without changing my ruleset to Federal HOS. It can really screw up the week when I have to change it for 1 run and then stay in Tx the rest of the week.

    Another bonus is I get to head to the house tonight before delivering tomorrow morning.

    My poor old vehicle sits rusting in a storage parking lot in TN.... with outdated license sticker...
    I left the USA in such a hurry to see my dad in Brasil and had no time to renew my vehicle registration back in August.... :( Will have to have it towed to the mechanic when I get there cause alternator was bad... last two days in the USA needed jump start every time I turned the ignition off...

    BTW.. my old vehicle is 1989... second engine, second transmission and all but it is strong and runs good and it shows about 208 thousand miles... I bought it cash in 1996 from a ranger... it had one owner only and all the maintenance papers... and I keep up with those... only problem is the paint... since I had no time to take care of that and nobody to take care of that for me while I was on the road for months at a time...
