Central Refrigerated Truck Stop

depends on the trainer... some are really *&(%&^ and some are really laid back. Some want you to do the speed limit down curvy hills in the fog and rain and some dont. You trainer might tell you what happens in the truck stays in the truck.

Ahh.. I had to get new shocks.. And a state inspection.. But I explained my low mpgs and power to the mechanic.. And he told me I didn't know how to spli my 13... Man.. I grew up in 13s and 18s.. But I kepy my mouth shut.. But I am talking to cole in truck management tom..

They have a really nice 780.. That would due all three of us better than the w9 and I can get in a lot tighter places.. A little easier.. I just wanna see my w9 in good hands.. Runnin 65 again and havin the power she needs.. Ill miss her tho...

 

Well I'd take her for ya, but yours is red and I'd hate to see another W9 crippled down to 62, and mine still hasn't broken 200K yet. Funny how once they turned mine down it gets worse MPG than before. I've been thinking of putting some black tape over the KW emblems and getting it registered as a handicapped vehicle.

Well, after 7 hours at the KW dealer in beautiful Dearborn, they finally got around to making the 30min repair. Back in Monroe for the evening with nowhere to go. I'm sure that will be fixed by morning.

 

Also if anyone has Sirius radio, if you catch the re-run of the Lockridge report at 5am eastern on channel 147, they'll be discussing the SWIFT lease op class action lawsuit.

 

Ya.. Might as well register it as a freightliner.. I can run across wyomin and nebraska with 20k in the box and never see anymore than 5.6.. And ill still have to run in down to 7L to get up those small hills.. Its crazy... But we gotta remember.. I'm just a silly unknowing first year driver that doesn't know how to shift..... A 13.... Man they make me mad...

 

That is bad. I was averaging 6.6 - 6.8 before it was neutered. Now I'm down to 6.4, and I run it flat out.

 

Well thanks to my nephew whom has just been released from prison for a 8 year sentence now living with us he was able to get my pc back up and running. He made have made a terrible mistake in his life but he is one I can honestly say learned his lesson and used his time to educate himself . In less then two hours he has my pc running better than it ever has before. He is a genuis with pc's!
I promise to post time to time next few day may be tough as 1bad is moving out officially tomorrow. And the stress on me is horrible and has increase my back pain 90%. But being without a pc for a 1 and 1/2 I have had a lot of time to think. I am not going to let him ruin the relationship I have made with alot of you on here. As far as Central goes as far as I am concerned I can only answer question regarding my experience with them. I am sure he will be on this weekend bad mouth and and I will all let you take it as you will. Just know I am not the monster he may make me out to be. I am a loving, careing person just looking for friendship and adult conversation. It is late and he will be here early in the am to get his things so I am off to bed very soon. I here snow is headed to the se so if you are coming through the gulf coast states please be very careful no load is worth you life. Be safe and I will be in touch soon.

apparently the petro on exit 272 in spokane WA collects Central Ref comdata cards. I picked up my load of apples and of course no scale. the nearest scale was in the opposite direction. When I pulled away the load didnt feel too bad so I continued. Got to the petro and weighed. Went inside handed my comdata card. The person at the fuel desk put the card on her computer after swiping. input all the information and gave me my receipt. She forgot to give me back my card and I forgot to ask for it.

So 10 miles away I get a QC saying that i left my comdata card at the petro and had to go back to get it. went back, pulled through the fuel island and ran in. There was a shift change so the current person didnt know about my card. She pulled out a stack of cards. and shuffles through them and says there are ALOT of central ref cards. LOL so she looks around and finally finds it under the keyboard. nice spot for it. walking out, I was talking to another driver and he was saying they took his card at the same petro before. Then what do we see??? A Swiftie using the squegee to clean his windows on the INSIDE of the cab. WTF?!?!

 

i am not going to slam or talk bad about widow we have some issues between us maybe we can resolve them one day maybe we wont but i can tell you this whole trucking thing is bad news for a family man i even went and put in apps at several local body shops today. this business (trucking) has changed me its hardened my out look on life and i want my old carefree ways back. ill be telling central to piss up a rope real soon then maybe i can put my life back toegher but it wont happen as long as im in that fn truck. newbees youve been warned this business can destroy a family im proof of that.
