    This is the best little grill! Walmart $50. Nothing better on the road than pork chops on the grill! IMG_3733.jpeg IMG_3734.jpeg

    Tomorrow morning we pick up in Omaha and head for Mendon, MI. I’ll have all 70 back and ready for another 6 days of hard running. Looks like I might have a few hours layover until I deliver on the 11th. The past few days was kinda crazy, we ran almost 1,400 in 3 days. One of those days we could only get in 350 miles so we had to make up the distance in 2 days.

    I miss being able to use my full size air fryer. Our inverters aren't big enough.

    I think my inverter is 1200w? Just big enough to shut off just when you need it to work. These inverters really are a pain. Big Pumpkin had an 1800w in the truck I had there and it worked great. I talked to a guy in the office in KC and he said he told them these trucks needed a condensing unit and 4 more batteries. Lincoln told him they didn’t think we needed those.

    Winston I believe is in charge of maintenance and ordering of equipment.. I have met him personally and while he’s a nice guy,he is definitely clueless when it comes to specs on equipment…he’s one of those folks who’s highly educated but lacks any common sense at all. He at one point wanted to cancel all orders with thermo king on reefers and go exclusively with carrier..but I think his father tonn who is the ceo overrode him on that one and such.

    The only people who truly know what works and what doesn’t are the ones who actually use the equipment. I’m sorry but those who don’t drive and don’t use it are totally clueless. Who suffers… The drivers-
