CARGO EXPRESS......JJ's New truck stop.

Looks like things may just be working out for me. They already have a trk for me but its waiting on parts. Supposed to be in today. If not, well thats just OK with me. Won't break my heart to miss the big DOT thingy.
The trk he's giving me is an 08 # which means I'll get to keep this one a little over 2 years or until I find anudder job.

 

Well, was working on getting into the trk today, and am about half moved in. Finally got fed up and just took a shower tho I'm not sure why. Was already plenty wet with all this rain. Rain would stop, open doors, move 1 item, rain start as I'm moving.
Know you can't see me right now but am crying great BIG crocodile tears about now. No Sirius radio in this trk. Going to go into withdrawels and probably die!!!! I had thought that all our trucks had Sirius. Am going to try and get one put in so wish me luck.

 

Oh yea, trk has a little over 200k on it and is maroon. Kind of handles a little differently and will have to get used to it.

 

Congrats on the new Truck Panhandle!

Oh NOOOOOOOO, no Sirius radio.

 

It has it now. Shop installed it for me. Need to go in and ask about the last time the APU return filter was changed. Not keeping up well.

 

I wish JJ's company had APU's!! Hate the thought of the babies getting all hot in the summer and freezing in the winter!

 

Hey guys.. I'm glad everythings rollin smooth.. I'm keepin an eye out for jj.. Hollar at all the cargos.. Even seen a 9900i with cargo over at st. Charles mo today...

Well everythins pickin up for us at central.. Miles seem better and my new dm is pretty decent. Works pretty hard to please me.. Well all know that's very rare.. One question for ya pan.. Is the apu return filter.. Located in your side box.. And looks to be one of those filters like you'd put in a house ac? If so.. How often do those need replaced?

 

Hey Dark, Good to hear things are going better for ya with Central!!

JJ is in VA right now delivers tomorrow and then picking up a beer load from Elkton going back to Golden CO and then from Golden back to Boise, Cargo has him runningggggggggg flat out!

 

Well, this APU has a different type filter than the 1st one did. This one looks like one of them green brillo pads but a lot bigger. Was told I could get into it from the little hatch under the bunk. They lied. Will have to go thru the side box to replace it.

Frequency of replacement? Guess thats up to you and how often you wish. A good rule of thumb tho, or at least how I found out the 1st time was, cold air would blow but not cool the trk down. Filter was so plugged it was restricting the air flow. New filter and it was like a gale force wind, even while sitting in the drvr seat.

Dang but I'm tired. Was up at 0700 yesterday and finished xferring all my stuff to this trk. Then drove all night. Am now at the Bolingbrook trk stop. Hopefully, will get some good zzzzz's in.

JJ, sorry bout not calling back but really glad to hear from you and the good news you told me. Let me know what hrs your driving, and if we can match them, will call back.

 

Just tripped across this thread tonight and found JJ Ranch, Jess JuJu and some of the others I got used to eavesdropping on at the other company. Glad you're back and I will be learning from all of you again. Thanks for all the info you guys have put out there for us newbies to learn from.
