    Happy Turkey Day Peeps.
    Hope everyone got to eat themselves into unconsciousness.

    Fish, I appreciate you letting me slide on that one, it was way too easy. :biggrin_25512: Not sure where my mind was at with that..

    Gears, that's not bad. We got our notice on the 17th and it was due on the 19th... thank gawd for the pay by phone option. :yes2557: I was expecting something way worse.....

    Sorry we been busy throwing good smelling rocks at 550's house. :biggrin_2559:
    You are all crazy......

    As for an update.... we are doing good, haven't killed each other. The cold won't let you stay mad for long, you need all the body heat and blankets to stay warm. Idling just cost way too much money. :biggrin_25521: We are making money (yippee) slowly but surely. (the money comes and goes almost as fast lol)
    Trying to find a load out of MI now.... it's frigging cold up here. The trailer is doing great, holds temp wonderfully. Thank God. Only down side was a while down the road after we picked the trailer up we noticed one outside tire had a slight flat spot (that wouldn't have passed inspection if they measured right there) we knew we would need to replace it soon. Apparently the inside one wanted to be replaced as well, it blew out on the side wall in WI. So we had to buy a new one. Went ahead and replaced both on that axle since the other one had the flat spot.

    I have decided I am not a fan of Montana (sorry Bronc)... too many mountain passes and snow for me.

    It's been many years since I ran through Chicago, what the hell happened to the $1.25, $1.75 etc tolls? Holy cripes they have tripled in price. :biggrin_25513:
     
    stepnfetchit, Luis, Big Red and 7 others Thank this.
