This will go down on my permanent record...

Yup, company trailer. It’s an odd one with the weld/holes failing…not my monkey-not my circus kinda a deal.

 

Same BS drivers skipping out on doing 120’s etc. All 4 shocks are leaking. The spider is all messed up. They called the axle doctor to come get it.

I dropped it and I’m bobtailing the 30 miles to my next load.

 

this taco truck in the parking lot by Rotten Robbie’s in Santa Nella, California makes a 10/10 Pastor super burrito.

 

I’m constantly surprised that trucking has afforded me the ability to lead the life I wanted to, and part of the measure was being able to do more for my son for his future. Of course it’s a balancing act with time at home and incoming revenue. My wife is a real hero in always making sure that I’ve got what I need and filling me with love and appreciation.

My truck now has over 900,000 miles on it. The poor grill on this thing had seen a lot. The clips finally broke and it was time to replace it.



I’m still on the hunt for a new truck. Prices for the lightly used Volvo 860’s seem to be going down. I looked at a truck back in April and it’s gone down about 10k. Now if I can walk that tightrope and do something if interest rates drop I’d be golden. Patience is a luxury when you’ve got good equipment.

 

My schedule has been pretty solid for the last 30 weeks or so. Basically out 4-5 days and home for 2-3. A nice ancillary benefit is making homemade Italian food from my mother recipes, and things with a bit more upscale style.
