Good night from...

Wilcox, NM. What a difference with a lite load and a small tailwind.

 

Lathrop as usual, he hopes we get done with these trailers within the week so he can take us south to work on the other 150

Got myself a new 2014 cascadia today, talked to the DM and asked him if he had pull to get me a newer truck and he said sure once I get back to fontana, I told him there are trucks just sitting in Lathrop so he took a look and named off this truck and I quickly said I will take it. its so much nicer and cleaner. I also like that there is a built in fan in the bunk where the vent is and the cubby hole next to the bed is perfect for my small inverter and bpap machine. I just have to finish unpacking tomorrow and organize for the storage that this truck has since its setup a bit different but I love where some of the storage spots are plus I like that the top bunk folds up where I dont hit my head on it all the time like the other truck.


Side note I have a blow gun and im wondering if there is a quick connect I can buy to connect it under the seat and remove it whenever I am not using it?

 

Yes wolfy. Easiest is go to a t/a repair shop ask for a 1/4 air line T. It makes life easier

 

went to union pacific railyard in commerce to get an empty. pain in the rear for being at one for the first time. hope the next time is easier lol

 

Stratford, TX. Got her with 1 min to spare. Would have had a few more but got behind a 18 that could only to 50mph for some reason.

 

I woke to a 200 mile preplan going to a Sam's Club DC so I took it.(I was worried about getting an MT from Lowes)
Then a pp for a light weight load headed to SC that delivers Wed. So I grabbed that as well. 3200+ miles for the week and now I have a decent trailer.
Blew my PTA out to Thur (no hours) and already called Command. Was told to check back tomorrow to see if they have anything decent out of SC.

 

ended up doing another railyard trailer pickup going to mira loma. then bobtailed over to apple valley to get another trailer. dropped that in fontana terminal where i'm at now doing a ten. 2nd time at the railyard was a little easier lol

 

and when I remove the gun there is a cap so the air doesnt escape? I will look into it next time I am near a TA whenever that might be

and yeah its the swifty white but its new which is what matters
even still has some of the new smell to it.
