    I'm guessing you're crossing at Williston, correct?

    I've never tried it or used it, but how much does Drivewyze cost? Or what kind of hoops to jump through to get it? I dont mind going thru Williston scale southbound, but when they open northbound it's like a suicide mission.

    90% of the time I’m going to be legal, it’s that 10% when the company man is relying on you to get that little extra bit so he doesn’t have to send another truck.

    So far truckpath has been on point when heading through that scale and that’s all I will have to rely on!

    Otherwise I can add on 15 minutes and a heck of a lot more turns and go the New Town way.

    "get that extra little bit so another truck isn't needed",, I wish I had a nickel everytime a dispatcher told me that.

    I’m all about going the extra mile to make myself a favorite and make that extra $5 bill.

    I didn’t come out here to not make the money...
