Running with JCT, Part Deux

Got hooked up with a swap to Sacramento. Fred's Quality Meats.

Oh. My. God.

This place is made for straight trucks. I don't know how I'll be able to fit on the property, let alone dock. The side of the building is out of the question, I know that much. There's not enough room for a 53' trailer, let alone a truck to push it in there.

I sure hope they have something rigged up at the rear of the building for semi trucks, or they'll be unloading this sucker by hand.

 

I will be in okc tonight .....load don't deliver until Thursday...1156 miles with 4 days on it....I have sent in macro 41 twice....I hope they do something in the morning

 

I will be doing a reset in Ft. Worth. At first my DM was like I will set your available for 1800 the same day. I said, no, like I said. I need a full restart. Look at my miles for this week. By the time I get to Ft. Worth, I will have almost 4400 miles logged. I need a reset. I have no more recaps.

He replied with ok. Not a problem.

On another note, got pulled over for a random level 2 road side inspection. Every thing was good and passed. My inspection got put on hold while he chased down a four wheeler that almost ran him over. #### near took his arm off. He got back and I asked him what kind of ticket was that. He said a failure to yield to emergency vehicle. I said oh, I would have thought attempted manslaughter with a deadly weapon. He goes, i like the way you think and going to have to scare some people with that.

 

Here are some picturesthe FlowBelow system I had installed yesterday. It consists of the wheel covers, fairing between the wheels, and an adapter on the mudflap hanger.

 

How much did that set you back

 

He won't say, but the retail price on the website is 2 grand. They look good though. I wouldn't have gone with chrome, but I have never been big on chrome. I would have gotten my wheel covers black, but they were out at the time I ordered them.

How often do have to repaint the letters on those tires. Looks good.

My wheel covers for the drives arrived at the house today. I will put them on when I go home in a couple of weeks.

 

I can't divulge the price I paid for my system, but the retail price is $1800. JCT is looking at the system, but Chris wants some solid numbers first before he commits to buying them. He will have the buying power to buy around 100 systems which would bring the price down.

 

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet, and Icy!!

 

Well go figure another load for JBS and it's not ready. LoL

 

Wound up getting unloaded from the street... forklift & chain method.

PITA.

When I got to my 2nd drop, I was told my appointment was at 0830. I found that odd considering my appointment at my first drop, 50 miles away, was 0800.

On a brighter note, the yard at the 2nd lot was ten million times better. It was sort of like going to a ConWay terminal. I was in and out in less than an hour, even though I was late.

70 miles later (more like 90 with the empty miles I burned looking for a parking spot), I'm in Oakland waiting for my 3rd and final drop tomorrow AM.

Note to self: Multiple drop loads suck to swap onto.
