    Yep, Oddesey deep cycle batteries. I started using them on mine. They can withstand being worn down better than any other I have used. My Qualcomm drains them at night because it never goes into sleep mode. Truck starts and recharges to 100% They can be 100% run down and be recharged 400 times before failure. They work great with apu's also.

    Interstates if you can afford them. I put dealer batteries in last time and have had no trouble

    I'm in Chattanooga waiting for repairs then off again. Last weeks pay was $4800 on 2250 miles. I never expected the kind of support here. Walked into ops. this morning seeking ways to improve as I felt I was failing on some aspects. Bill and Tom are very happy with all their drivers so my worrying was for nothing. This has to be the best deal I've seen.

    There's a short to the ECM. Keeps shutting down. As soon as I get up to about 15 mph the motors shuts off. Have It at the shop just keeping my fingers cross they fix is ASAP. Not a good idea to have customers mad on my second week. Kinda down right now.

    Last week was decent. Got hung up over the weekend, i planned on going home. Did a roundtrip to Chicago from Ohio. Brought empty racks back, turned out nobody was there to receive it til 2200 Sunday.... So that shot going home, load only paid $1.58 for the round. delivered and im now sitting til 1100 Tuesday morning to load to Ky at $519 on 280 miles then from Louisville to Chicago for $573 on 360miles. Not great, but it will get better.
