Climate Express

I think they told me one time that they didn't have any parts for them. Of course that was during the covid year when they couldn't get parts for anything. That's a a case of, "can't or unwilling to solve a problem, just get rid of it."

 

Man....I got to about the 180 or so Friday evening, and I didn't get off of 70 til 5 am the next morning. I finally gave up and went to the sleeper. It was a mess just like you said. 4 wheelers all in the ditch, at least 4 trucks in the ditch still.....so many trucks were parked on the shoulder since they ran out of hours in that traffic jam.

Professor, you called it!!! It was a bad hose in that exact spot. Nate showed it to me, and that bad boy was split in half basically. It took no time to repair it. They told me to shut off the blue valves on the passenger side so I could make it there, cutting off coolant flow to the APU. Gotta a quick fix and learned something new.

 

How'd ya do making it on to Rolla? I actually live loaded yesterday in Hazleton, PA for Sysco in St. Charles. That traffic jam derailed me from getting a 34, otherwise life may have been different going into this week. I'm on recaps so I'll deliver tomorrow.

I delivered to that Weis Market DC in Milton, PA. I had a 9 am appt, got there at 8. They turned me away. They only take loads 30 min prior to appt now. That annoyed me some. Oh well. Went up the street to this warehouse, parked there for a moment, then a wrecker squares up in front of me, and lowers his hook. I had my lights on, and I was idling. The driver talking about he was about to tow me....he was "told to do so." Nobody came out and told me to leave beforehand either. I told him I was leaving. He replies, "right now," with a tone in his voice like "if you know what's good for you." I really wanted to punch him lol. My professionalism got tested yesterday, but I maintained. They are some vultures out ther le for real.

 

Dang man, you still got the new vehicle smell on it. I'm in one of the older Volvos now. It's got almost 400k miles on it. I've heard some of the guys in the lounge talk about those electrical issues and sensors. I swear, the issues of mass produced trucks.

 

Climate Miles are definitely back in full force! I've been reeling off some good weeks something serious. It's about to get warm so we are all about to be on fire with these miles. I'll go home this weekend, and ready to get it while it's good. Which Coke in Houston are you going to?
