Systems Transport

BTW when are you leaving out of Fargo? I'm about 2 hours East of you westbound. My clock resets at midnight.

 

I'm leaving around 4 am mountain time. Wanna grab dinner? I'm at the petro

 

Congrats on obtaing your goal, we all our happy for you. Im hoping to reach my goal within the year... We would appreciate pics of your new ride though.

 

Pretty soon I'll be the last one left.

 

I feel ya man. It's getting lonely around here LOL.

On a side note as of today I have officially been with Systems for 1 yr. I'm calling those fockers up in the morning for my .5 cpm raise and getting that 401k started .

 

Dispatch was like hey you've been out for 6 weeks do you want to go home?

I was like meh, if we could take this weekend off that'd be cool, but if we can't do it smoothly don't bother as it's not important and i hate California.

Smoothly was defined as less than 2 additional drops down and then not spending the next week to get back up to Spokane for an OTR run wasting my time doing regional runs on an OTR pay scale.. He comes back with an 11' 3" wide going to Oakland,CA... Not smooth.

I'm not sure how much damage you have to do to an OD unit before they stop giving them to you, but apparently the scratch in NYC wasn't enough...

 

I've seen guys mangle those Haakon units pretty severe, and they're still pulling them.

 

Well ##, There goes my plan LOL

 

are any of you owner operators? ive been thinking about buying one of are old trucks in a year or so. I might have some questions, so I can be ready for it if it comes.

 

Currently stuck running 60' pipe sections out of Portland to a BC hydro project north of Vancouver. Trip includes 84 km of Forest Service road along the east side of Harrison lake.

So far I've replaced/repaired three tires, one air line and one shock on the trailer, one drive tire, one fog lamp cover, and my rear license plate on the tractor.

But hey... it's an adventure!
