    Congrats on getting out of EVO 3. I suspect your runs will get longer now if my experience is of any consequence. Sitting it out in Wood River, NE tonight. Should make it over to middle Wyoming tomorrow. Sweet old western I-80:)

    Congrats on Evo3. I start school Monday in Marshfield. Looks like I will be 3 months behind you and am hoping you will keep us posted on how things are going for you so I know what I have to look forward to.

    Good job getting through training. You should get some kind of award for dealing with junk trucks. I hope your repairs go well and they get you rolling. I am on my way to Georgia and Florida, big fun. Had my first 3000 mile week since summer 2008, maybe things are looking up.

    ahhhhhh! At homefinally... So after getting my truck back on Friday and getting my steel paper and 2 lumber tarps I finally hit the road and headed to pick up a load in Oak Creek. Got there around 2AM and hooked up. Just didn't have the sleep to get any farther so I took my 10 there. Bout 10AM I woke up to the sight of 4 other trucks rolling thru. Kudos to the drivers because that place is tight! And it was raining hard too... lol
    So my ten was up at 1215 and I get ready to head to Gary since that is my fuel stop for this run. Look at the QC and there is a message to have Gary drain my tanks because of the coolant issue. Get there and they have no clue. Guy at Marshfield forgot to do it then forgot to call to let them know in Gary or the shift did not let the next shift know. Anyhow they did nothin because their pump is down. So got some extra filters and sent me truckin. Worked out for me better since I made it home last night. Would still be on the road had they kept me there... Oh they had me routed thru Canada which is not past the house. Called and they fixed that.
    Then they did not work on the other issues I had written up. So, now I'll be heading to Marshfield again soon... My inverter is not working. :biggrin_25513:
    The guy from the place was there on Thursday and Friday. Did not get him to look at it... Then they had me come to Marshfield in the first place from the town where they sent my truck, but whatever... it is what it is... lol:biggrin_25523:
    Hoping after they get it in and check the inverter out it will have some good runnin time... that would be nice! lol

    Safe travels!

    The trucks are good to go once they are fixed... I'm betting the volvo is running great now...
    heck my current truck got great mileage this last fill up... So I think that once this inverter issue is solved it will be good to go... at least I HOPE!!!!

    Pretty sad that you've spent more time with him in the last 2 weeks than I have. :biggrin_25525: He is also headed to Georgia for Monday, then hopefully back home for next weekend.
