    Well dang, it looks like tomorrow is moving day. Running a short load tonight from Jacksonville to Charlotte tonight, then they want us to go over to the Lexington terminal to get our new truck.. I would like to keep the one we have, feel like we finally have it broken in at 350,000 miles.

    What is crazy to me is I assumed they were going to give this one to a solo driver. It is in great shape. Nope, being traded in.

    Wow thought they were keeping them
    For 400-500k
    I don't want to lose our 2012 Cascadia
    No issues and runs great. Only 266k miles
    on her clock...

    But Craig just think, It gives me the opportunity to come up with another set up for the truck LOL. Honestly I'm a little sad giving this truck up. We know all her quirks and have it set up pretty darn cool. Now we get a totally different set up to figure out. But hey got to be positive. Maybe the new truck will be even better than this one. We will know tomorrow.

    Are you getting another Cascadia? If so the interior
    should be the same. I guess the only change would be
    Your box behind the cab. You may have to secure it
    In a different way. Is it still going to be a white one?

    Nope, what we have been told is a ProStar. It turns out the white Cascadias we saw were for a different division. Was told it was reefer but they were wrong. Heard this will be a red ProStar. At least it will be the bigger one.

    I have seen a few of the white cascadias but they had
    a C number.

    Was supposed to go to Lexington to change out our Cascadia for a Prostar...LMAO,,,not happening! Had to drop our reefer at Thermal King for PM than, head to Lexington to pick up an empty reefer and head to N. Cove, NC We got to Lexington and they didn't like our left steer tire so, they changed them both. Than, we picked up our empty reefer and headed to N. Cove, NC Lets just make a long story short,,,picked up our load at 22:30, went to weigh it and it was over on trailer tandems,,so, we go back to have it reworked...3 times in all!!!!! The wife finaly got out of there this mornng and headed to Tunnel Hill where we will give load to another driver and clean out truck,,time to move on.
