Trans Am Still

A couple more driver favorites .....sorry wulfman, it's all about the food! Some of them may have wifi, we'll have to do a little further investigation.

The Cornstalk Restaurant on I-80 at Exit #34 in Shelby, IA- northeast corner of the interchange at the Taylor Quick-Pic. Pork tenderloin sandwich and waffle fries is a driver favorite.

I will never go back to MCLANES in Temple, Tx. 7 hours to unload 25,700 lbs. They rejected 6 cases for being crushed. Would have been out of there in 6.5 hours but stood in front of paperwork window for half an hour. Got lucky and was able to park at the truck stop up the block from them so at least that is one good thing that happened tonight. Have to sit here till I can do O.S&D for rejected cases. Its chocolate wonder if I will have a hard time getting rid of it, too bad I can't eat it maybe some will be sugar free.

Be safe out there

 

I have been to Russell's in NM a couple years ago. nice place and the antique cars were nice.

Also have been to the one in Berea, KY. very small lot but good food.

 

I could've sworn I saw somebody on my night drive, flying on a broom, was that you??

 

Wulfman, go for it. That is a great place. Johnboy from Abilene Motor Express took me there when I trained with him back in the winter, and is my favorite to date. Well worth it. If you can down their 72 oz in 60 minutes, its free. Fabulous old time atmosphere with balcony railings and of course it has truck parking.

 

And I am looking to start in thee winter. Looks like my first stop if I go to olathe will be someplace that sells winter clothing.

 

I have been giving away those chocolate cases to drivers about 3 so far. Will keep 2 for the neighborhood kids and my wife. Be in Rockwall tonight to pick up trlr and head out for Marrietta. Only got 3368 this week was hoping to get in 3500 but MCLANES messed that up

Be safe out there

 

Yep ....our experiences with McLanes have been much the same. They are extremely rude and disrespectful to other company drivers but I have heard that their drivers are treated well and make very good money.

Hmmmph!

Yay! We are on the right track then .....now we just have to pinpoint the ones that have wifi.

Did I hit the right truck with lightning? I didn't have on my night vision goggles.

He was still stunned from the lightning bolt I sent his way!

You won't need a whole lot ....you'll be in the truck for the most part. I think on the original thread we had a list going for winter gear....I'll try to find it later for you.

jaso, you had 6 boxes of chocolate and you are only taking your wife 2????!......and she has to share with the neighborhood kids?! We need to have a talk!

jungHo, are you alright? How is your mom? You have been pretty quiet. I am proud of you and George.....you are doing so well. It is a hard adjustment in lifestyle.

Pete, do you ever go by this place?
