    I drove nonstop, made it at 333.
    Dude said, “You we’re supposed to be here at 10!!”

    Me. “Get outta my way or your boots are going to become yellow.”

    So.

    We are unloaded, it’s 500, “you can DH to Watts Ok and be there before 900 right?”

    Me “Dude. WTF.
    I’ve Not eaten since yesterday, Sitting in line to weigh out, it took me 30 minutes to weigh in, so I’m looking at an hour.
    Plus the address he sent my phone or me rand McNally can’t find.”

    Them “Just do the best you can.”

    Me “I’ve done that, one favor per lifetime is a good motto.”

    Oh the joys of hopperbottom work, I’m remembering why I left it.

    This is going nutty as usual....
    I wanted to go get my load early this morning... 3am.... nope...
    Headlight still out...he supposedly fixed it yesterday...
    Got air problem... I found out today it dumps air only with yellow in... otherwise builds up just fine while idling with yellow pulled.... they found the secondary air can leaking today... try to fix it by late tonight...
    He had to wake me at 9pm last night to tell me what could wait... Then up at 2am...back home.... no headlight fixed...then back out at 6am to get load... Was hurting bad on any decent sleep.... got 4 hours today...
    He's also trying to resetup my Garmin GPS to do logs. We researched more on it. Hopefully can get it to work. You'd be suprised... That thing does a whole bunch. Trip reports, by state mileage reports, collated quarterly reports. It's pretty darn good. One thing I think we missed. Making sure all info in inputted on it. Lack of any info will result in it constantly trying to link to the engine.
    Anyways... I just gotta wait. Hopefully get out 3am tomorrow? Was wanting to. Otherwise gotta find some kind of parking around Garland TX. late in the day Sunday. ??? Any ideas?
    Gonna look at receiver if can park there? Delivery 9am monday morning.

    Sometimes the yellow dumps the trailer airbags when it's out. If it dumps with yellow in then maybe someone crossed a line somewhere?

    High beams and low beams usually use the same bulb, in newer trucks anyway, can you just swap them around?

    Have fun and remember, nothing lasts forever. :D
