    clutch fan. Part maybe warranty. Not the labor and found little while ago that the part that they said they had was wrong part so sent a guy to Bakersfield to get the right one and now another 2 hours to get installed when he gets back.

    oh and before some one says it, it was not fan staying on, fan not coming on. Happened about 4 miles up Taejon

    Little Rock for a 30. Headed to Fresno with a light load. My student dropped our t-call in Memphis and I picked up this load in Grenada, MS.

    Now we need to manage our hours to make sure we have enough hours coming back on our 70's after we drop this load.

    Had a high pitched screeching whistle while going through Memphis. Thought it might be brake pads not fully disengaged. Pulled over and the whistle continued until I set the trailer brake. Opened the red line clamp and saw the rubber gasket was deformed. Replaced it and all is good.

    Anyone know if you can drop early at the Dollar General DC in Fulton MO? I'll be there 09:00 07/20 but my drop window is 07/21 00:01-23:59.
    Asked dispatch, they said to use mac 13 to *CSR to ask, did that and never got a response. Big improvement over the old way....lol.

    If I can't drop this tomorrow I'll lose my next 2 loads.

    If you committed to loads and lose them because you can't deliver early you might get a couple service failures.

    HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!

    I hope no one else was caught up in the nexus of hell ... 74/77/81 through NC, VA and WV was an absolute mess today in every direction ... 10 hours and 400 miles. The third worse day I've had.

    In OH, IA tomorrow as ... I hope.
