    Yes it is. Where I made my mistake, believing them when they said that after I did the trailer move to PHX from Fontana, they could keep my rolling. I should have stayed in Fontana. The loads comming outta there where mostly long heading East. At the time, they were working on PTA's from noon Thursday, and that was mine. They tried to send me a pplan while sleeping, dropped trlr at the yard, and take it 230 miles back into CA again. It was cancelled b4 I had time to say no. The problem with moving yourself to a better area, it is now unauthorized DH, so no pay.

    Doesn't mean anything ... always a bunch of bobtails there. Laredo is supposed to be overbooked right now.

    When I was with Prime, I sat at that very truck stop for almost three days while I waited for Tyson to finish loading my trailer with dead chickens. These long load/unload times were part of why I left Prime.

    At least five, prob more, trucks got deadheaded to Houston from Laredo. Was a pleasant enough drive. I stopped at a Walmart got socked up on some snacks. Finally learn what humidity is...

    Northwestern Washington.

    Chaining is really not as big a deal as some make it out to be.
