Where are you

Ronnie Milsap, Prisoner of the Highway.

 

Don't think those drivers were proud... Each one of them got some ticket from hwy patrol... Dlvering tomorrow at 23:00 central time in MS. Awful time! Hope will find parking at Walmart supercenter after that... everywhere else will be packed and my next p/up will be sometime during the day in LA. Have been getting loads from brokers instead of my regular Walmart account... This is not very fun... Gotta call brokers every time I arrive or departure anywhere... have appointment for deliveries at awful times in the evening... But I guess this is the "real world of trucking".... I have been very spoiled in the Walmart account...

 

Condolences.

Pueblo CO... at a Sam's Club waiting to be unloaded. I'll most likely park it here tonight. Very quiet.

 

Back home again....truck in it's "second home" (the shop)...again.....DAMMMMM EGR.....had a load of bark (bulk, conveyor belt loaded into trailer) put me at 79,870 thanks to EGR and Navistar, barely climbed the top of Siskyou in 3rd gear!!!!! Thing won't do a regular "regen" while on the move, and has to be "forced regen" after replacing the exhaust sensors (4).....I read on a thread here on TTR, Navistar/International stock has plumetted 50%+ DURING THE PAST 14 MONTHS DUE TO EXCESSIVE WARRANTY CLAIMS AND THE egr SYSTEM.....who'd a thunk?

 

Dang Otter, my EGR has yet to go bad.


I better shut up before it does.

 

You should be OK...it's the 07,08 and early 09's.

 

I must have my drivers mixed up. SOMEBODY just got a new Pete as he was thinking of quitting. Guess it weren't you....

 

Baltimore, MD

I usually just go on about my business and wait for the brokers call me if they need an update. Trust me, they WILL call. I just tell them that I'm too busy doing my job to stop and let them know that I'm doing my job.

 

Just got to the house...

Gonna give the German car a bath then go gets some parts, I'm thinking of making it into a track pig for Watkins Glen..

 

Actually, I just got this truck about 10 days ago. But I hated to see my streak of "some kind of breakdown every 10 days to further hamper my earnings potential" streak continue, so thank goodness the QC screen crapped out, or I might have actually run 14 consecutive days without a problem.

Hate to overwork, doncha know??
