    Had texting added to my cell. Didn't know I had to add it at the Kiosk at a terminal. I tried to add it at the driver portal on my computer here at home. No luck.

    Can my DM do it in the morning?

    I missed a preplan for a 700 mile run to Tampa! Conway to Conway Freight.

    I come off my hometime at 0600. I am going to spend the night in the truck in the street in front of my house. Get my sweetie to play "lot lizard!" :biggrin_25522:

    This will be my maiden voyage as a solo.

    On occasion you can access the change info screen off the driver website from your home computer. I know most of the time it kicks you out as inaccessible, just have to keep trying.

    Yes, your DM can change it for you if you call him/her up. However you will have to give them your id and pass for the kiosk. They essentially log into your account and make the changes for you via their computer. So you gotta trust them in order to do that.

    Wish you luck and prosperity out there.

    Thanks guys. Just accepted a preplan. I've got 3/4 tank of fuel and picking up a load of water. 46K. I have 2 set of snow chains. They are going to come off the truck and into my shop. I need to lose weight. Driving 100 miles to pick up this load. Not loading 'til 15:00. I guess I will get out the Makita and do some weed whacking.

    Funny part is when I tell my DM my naughty password.

    Heck of alot better than having to babysit the truck for hours on end when it takes them 12-24 hours to hit you with one during the slow times.

    You're right.. but it was hard to see that when they wake you up. Had to remember to turn the phone off when sleeping. As a regional, my situation was a bit different cause I ran 2-5 loads daily yet still slept in the rig.
