    My statement about the scale and 5.00 was that if you didn't know about it you'd be toast cause they won't give you change for it so then your just guessing or driving to cape or charleston or Mathews to get a scale

    Yeah...I had to wait for the Ottawa load but the first stop was on time. I was out of there in less than 30 minutes. The last two stops in Fort Worth unloaded me as soon as I got there. I wasn't at any of the three stops for more than 30 minutes. I was completely done by 11 AM. I deadheaded to Lawton yesterday afternoon. I picked up there at about 1 AM after break. I stopped in Sullivan, MO for break. I'm off to DeKalb but can only deliver 24 hours early (which means 8 AM tomorrow). I'll have 2330 miles when I finish this load.

    I had a shredded paper place try to load me to 86,000 Lbs. in Cincinnati. I didn't even have to reweigh to know I was way over. LOL

    That is where the fuel solution thing isn't good. It doesn't take things like that into account. Then you are screwed.

    That's right ... And then you find yourself having to take a pallet off the rear to compensate . Which I'm sure would be a logistical nightmare .. Lol

    If you ever deliver to petsmart in Wichita Falls I recommend getting there the evening before. Park and walk up the road to the corner (probably 10 minute walk) and go to McAlisters. They have some really good sandwiches. Subway aint got s*** on this place. I had a grilled chicken ceasar wrap. Very good. Highly recommend it and they have free wifi. Once again, the food is good, well worth the 10 minute walk.
