I'm guessing that is the accident described here:

No injuries in the home, but no detail on the driver who apparently suffered a "medical condition"

 

Moved into a brand new Cascadia today. I also got to check out one of the new T680s while the driver was here for the safety meeting.

 

What do you think about it?

 

Which one?

The 680 was awesome. Built in inverter, tv mount, the seat even automatically adjusts itself.

I was waiting for a Cascadia. The Detroit has more power the the 660's PACCAR motor and the bunk is big enough I can actually stand up in it. Although I prefer KW, this freightliner is going to work out just fine.

 

Congrats LB you deserve it!

 

In Richfield for the night. Fun day today. Got unloaded by a loose cannon forklift driver at st paper. Headed over to Marion for a load of veneer headed to Alabama for Monday. I heard its drop and hook for this load so I should be able to get there for Saturday morning

 

Dropped in cleveland yesterday. Picked up in North Lima OaH headed to Big Island VA the pay miles for this load is 373 thats impossible. Which route would you guys take. Ive considered 79 S to WV 19 to 64 all the way to 64/81 north to 64E south on 29 to 130 to 501. OR 68 across to 81 south and in same way.

 

If it was me from just looking at it quickly here I'd probably go 76 to 70 to 81. From 81 there should be directions in the QC I'd think or hope this would be around 390 miles

EDIT: Just make sure you verify with dispatch you need to run the whole 76 down to 70 on this run, with the paid miles at that they shouldn't have a problem with it.

 

hey everyone. I have been trolling the thread for awhile and finally decided to register. I am currently a cop (you can reply with as many donut jokes and insults as you want) and am considering a career change to driving. researched a bunch and am seriously considering millis. any thoughts or advise would be appreciated.

 

Well I think you just gave yourself your new cb handle.

Nice to meet you "Donut"!
