    You didn't provide a full picture. Don't blame me for just making suggestions. This ain't my first rodeo either. The ball gets dropped. That's trucking. Kinda like trying to send someone over NE toll roads and the GW bridge with no EZPass...even though his file SHOULD and DID (proven by the FM that came in on Monday, as his FM was on a 3 day vacation) have said that he was to be routed through SpringMo for a new one. Fortunately, the load got repowered, probably to a team at SpringMo, and JCW got his new EZPass.

    I realize you are frustrated. JCW got stuck in Detroit while w/ one trainer for a week on a radiator repair. The radiator took several days to get there, and then some of the fittings were missing. He also got stuck in OKC for four days while the turbo on the 2nd trainer's truck got fixed. Oh, and he said it was odd seeing the Prime truck zipping down I-40 at 75...attached to the back of the wrecker.

    Yes, it seems that you seem to have fallen through a crack, but you also don't know what else there may be on the table at the moment. Rest assured, it isn't JCW. He's safe and sound staged in Hagerstown for his delivery tomorrow.

    You are so right on that and I remember how frustrated you were to be so close to him but yet so far during his breakdown. This is trucking and this kinda stuff happens. Just venting.....
    Thanks DTB

    Been in Baltimore for a whole day waiting for our 8 AM pick up. Doing this now and headed on a short shot to King of Prussia PA by 11. Short haul, tight time. Hopefully we have another haul that will stretch us out on our next haul. Baltimore South TA was pretty nice, clean showers and no hookers:biggrin_25512: , but with the lack of rain, walking between any truck brings the aroma of urine which always adds to the experience :biggrin_2552:.

    Tried out my exercise bands today, getting a good muscle stretch and work out at the shipper. Maybe I will start a new post just for exercise and cooking ideas on the road.

    SpringMo, Detroit, OKC, Baltimore, King of Prussia, Malden, Gary, and a truckstop to be named later. All locations named by a mere few drivers of one company on one page encompassing less than 24 hours. Is it any wonder that people who like to see places get into trucking?
