Conway Truckload Drivers what is your 20?

Thats great! Im hoping that since I live in Joplin I will be able to get maintenance and repairs done on the truck while I am at home.. I will checkout your page!!

 

tomarjr -- that would definitely be ideal. I would even settle for an international dealer within 60 miles of my home...

I'm in Morris, IL getting a PM done at the TA. Just learned that those cool little vacuum gauges on the air filter assembly are not reliable indicators of filter life -- mine was reading as if the filter was new, but it came out looking like I'd just run the baja1000.

Hope to get a load out early tomorrow; the evening forecast looks ominous.

 

WTF! The Sonic is closed in Calexico!

 

That place is going to the dogs....lol , I hung out up off I-10 & dogwood ...by the mall ....

AT&T store next to BK has decent WIFI ....the BK kinda stinker .....today was last day for .25 small coffees ....which I has a few this AM ...

 

I like how the graph on the QC just shows a missing hour this AM ....yup it's missing alright!

 

Yeah, I was going to head to el centro, get in n out.But then decided I wanted a coney.Ended up buying turkey dogs, wheat buns, turkey chili.I justified they are good for me.Still would have rather had sonic.Oh well, looks like will be here till am, Rented Seven Psychopaths too.Why redbox doesn't get in at major Truckstops.

 

In Joplin, truck is in the shop. Developed a coolant leak after getting assigned a load from NY to Joplin. LoL

 

Back at TA in morris, IL getting at least 1 tire after picking up this sorely neglected trailer in new lenox & having the abs system fixed in hodgkins. I've been occupied for 8 hours and have maybe 80 paid miles to show for it.

I'm sure it isn't anyone on TTR, but I'm getting a little peeved at my fellow drivers for leaving equipment in this condition. Of the ~10 trailers I've touched this week, 8 have had csa infractions readily apparent. And my stomach churns upon receipt of the following message: "cfi recommends mt trailer ##### because it has been in the pool the longest" -- you're guaranteed a detour to a shop to obliterate what little remains of your 14 after getting the trailer roadworthy enough for just that modest journey.

Add in the downtime for the tractor & I'm amazed anything gets done.


...obviously failing miserably at trying to stay positive...

 

double yellow it could be worse in the past 2 weeks with the company i have been with take home 200 dollars. Start orientation here at conway on the 1 st of April. Im stoked havent been in a cfi/conway truck since 2006, when i was a teen with my gramps.

 

We like going to the Truck Stop over behind In and Out they have really good steak tacos, husband like their burritos and we get good WiFi from the hotel over there
