Most of our directions are like that! Direction of next turn should be FIRST! Then street...

 

Dear Lord, thank you.

LOL! I am the same way when it comes to directions! It drives me nuts when I'm coming in from a different direction than what is in the QC and it just says turn left or right, sometimes compass directions is very beneficial! Also a heads up, the little taco shop that is on the northeast corner of Blue Island Ave & Damen is mighty tasty. When you walk in you would not think much of it, but I highly recommend it. Also if you need a place to park until dispatch has a plan go west on Blue Island to the first stop sign and turn left. You will go past Frozen Assets on your RHS and as soon as you go through that intersection you can park up on the dirt area up on the curb.

 

geesh, this place is dead as hell.... hey larry i meet your earlier on 287, idk if you tried calling me on the ol citizen band but i had my volume down, well im still in this temporary piece of junk, keep getting a check engine light for "exhaust gas temp 3" and the spot light doesn't work and makes this weird ### buzzing sound...Our beloved safety director said that kenworth was running behind on the new trucks, they better tighten there ### up!! i want my #### radio with the aux jack!!!

by the way, i want to know if my southern born ever went back and found our posts about us VA Drivers?? but he's just trolling, i already know who you are anyway lol

 

Hey guys hope everyone is doing good i just made it home last night only took 12 days to make the trip to Cali and back and that was with a 34 so good work by the people in Iowa, people must love the 660 cuz you see a ton of em on the road. how are they with air circulation? I can be in the back of my pete with the front windows open and i get no breeze in the back,probably my only complaint with the peterbilt wish ours had the bigger window in the back that you could slide open.Hope you guys have a good week ,good luck with the truck Hawk.

 

it sucks with the KW's as well mushroom.... if you pull the curtains back you can feel a little breeze but not an whole lot!!! and thanks for the good luck wishes... i'm trying my best to hang in there lol

 

I was wondering if any of you guys felt that shaker yesterday. No offense to you guys, but in a way I feel someone is actually listening to me when I hope for everything east of Ohio to just break off and float into the Atlantic! All joking aside, glad to hear you and your families are safe and well. Where was the actual epicenter of the quake? As far as air flow goes in my KW it seems to be ok. If you open all of the windows & bunk vents it seems to circulate quite well. if that hurricane even brushes the east coast it is going to be royal pain in the arse!

 

Epicenter was around Mineral, VA.

From what I've read, the quake was felt so far away because of the plate dynamics in the area. On the West Coast, multiple fault lines will subdue and deflect the transmission of tremors, while in the East, smack in the middle of the tectonic plate, with no major faults and a different make-up of the bedrock, you get shakers that travel for miles.

Here I am in Green Bay waiting for a midnight unload. Hopefully I miss Irene.
