Central Refrigerated Truck Stop

those guys at wvc cant fix a sandwich, moreless a truck. i hate going there, from now on, ill be at at the international dealer or a ta for my repairs.

 

I am sitting in Pasco, WA at the moment. I went from Carrollton, TX to Billings, MT then had two drops in Spokane, WA, and 3 drops in Tacoma, WA.

I need to do a 34hr restart, was planning on doing one at TA Seattle East, but they had me deadhed down down here to Pasco and drop my trailer at Tyson

so hopefully I can squeeze in a 34 here. I am at the King City Truck stop if anyone is coming through here.

 

Trapped in WVC again...but there is a light somewhere in the tunnel. I am only stuck as long as it takes the detail shop to finish my Volvo (w/a cummins engine). Of course,they didn't really have a chance to get to it today,it was already 1400 when they took it in. That kind of worries me,but I don't plan to even put it in gear until it is de-yucked. I won't get any sleep for a few nights,I'm sure. Not sure how to even get to sleep without the low voltage alarm going off every 20 minutes. Now,if I can just get outta here so I can go dodge the flooding Missouri River...

 

No sleep? You should sleep better knowing you won't get idle charges.

 

LOL...that would have been my thoughts,too. Unfortunately they decided to put me on probation over it and a refer problem. The Volvo is part of the "bargain". Not real sure how to feel about it except I'm glad to still have my job.

 

Or exaggerated...

 

Raincatcher, today is Thursday. Doesn't that mean some rooms are opening up in the dorms? Ask to stay there.

 

Seriously? I would rather sleep under the L.A. freeway in a cardboard box. That place is a noise looney bin.

 

If you have cabinetry removed have the people at the terminal do it. They store the cabinates somewhere. Have it noted on the form that you sign when you get the truck.

The fridge that you are missing is called a cube and is made by WAECO. Do a google search and you will find them. I have one in my Prostar. It works really good now that I had it replaced on warranty. It cost me a day of downtime, but worth it.

 

Are you one of the "lucky" guys that had a birds nest that caught on fire in the reefer? They had a couple of those I guess. I'm currently 4 hrs from Denver headed to WI and will end up with a 34 waiting for my appt. Customer service only services themselves and each other, never a driver.
