Good night from...

Home for the evening. Possibly 2. Real hard to get out of Cols on a Sunday, going West.

 

Monee, IL for tonight.

 

Thanks Injun! I do appreciate the response. Do you have a dedicated run? I would like to hear from some company drivers about how they're doing, as a general average that is. If I could average around 2500 miles a week that would be great. If a lot of other Swift company drivers are able to do that too, I will absolutely go for it. Sure will appreciate it if some other Swiftys will post a response! Thanks!

 

Flowood,MS wondering why it is paper mills are always at least 100 miles from any interstate and in the hottest most humid places possible.

 

Boise, ID. TA.

 

Coming out of Oregon southbound on the Eye 5, I was debating getting fuel at Lathrop but noticed the prices at TA Corning and Redding were only 2 cents more than Lathrowup. So I pushed on to the TA Livingston and paid $3.95 cash price which beats Lathrop by almost 9 cents yay the savings paid for my dinner.

ThaiTexBil, I think it was Hamshoe who made a thread detailing miles and pay, just have to look further down the main Swift page for it.

 

I'll be fueling at Joe's $3.92 ... Lathrop prices are always higher than the economy. I've seen it as high as $.20 more.

 

Forgot to mention the crafty guy making Subway sammiches in Oakland OR Pilot. My food was $6 bucks even. I had some 20's, a 10 and a $1 dollar bill which I threw in the tip jar and handed him the 10 for to make change. Later when I went to go buy an iced tea, discovered only three $1's in my wad. This guy has tiger stripe tattoos on his arms and respectfully keeps his iPod ear phones around his neck when making your food.
