    Took the Mrs. out for dinner before I left. Been to this place often and always thought the heater base was stainless. Chinese junk. 20210410_180808.jpg

    Thank you. Good memories of Round Rock and touring around Austin 10 years ago.

    All uphill. Two lane mostly. Salt river canyon full of switchbacks. Coming out of globe curves and steep downhill. Also two lanes. It's not worth the loss in mpg and the hassle. Its the shortest way to get to Casa Grande from 40 but I've tested it and it's actually faster to go 40 to 17 even though it's more miles. Last time I took that route I got 5.8 mpg in my truck. I usually average 7.5 to 8.5 mpg even pulling 45k.

    probably bronze..... Should be copper, bronze, silver, gold as a logical progression.

    Not sure about associating the logical thing with Landstar after the 2 "drivers" picking up today. The dock aint easy, but it aint that difficult either. Evidently the production crew (A bunch of barely out of high school kids) gave the second "driver" a standing ovation for the entertainment he gave them....

    Ok, I looked closer since you said don't and LTL Anon said it should be obvious. Well, thank you both fellas, I had not looked over every mile of the route. I appreciate you guys!

    Good sausage should have a little charred crunch on the outside... And scaulding hot juices inside.
