Melton, Whatcher 20

Also, if you get a CASS load you'll probably have a ridiculous appointment time. Just show up as soon as you can and they will work you in. It's not fun, and you'd better have 3 hours available to get out of the area. Closest truck stop in route is like 100 miles away.

 

hey guys
haha slow, what a name for a dead bird !!

i picked up at western extrusions in texas along with a bunch of other melton drivers.
delivering to uhaul with a stop at another uhaul both in arizona.
about 1050 miles.

going west...wonder where ill go next. i will just about make it with the amount of hours i got. i seem to get along with my dm whenever i call her...at least thats what it feels like. just happy to keep moving.

 

Oh Joy one of those.

 

It's not Wanda is it?

 

Where's your final uhaul in AZ? If it's around the phoenix area, you'll probably be going to Pick up aluminum ingots in goodyear or pipe from allied tube in phoenix. Maybe go out to the hayden or Morenci copper mines. If you go to the hayden mine, you're going to amarillo and if you go to the Morenci mine you're going to Mckinney tx.

 

never heard of any Melton driver getting a fuel bonus. I never did and good top 100 drivers I know didnt either,just FYI.

 

great, so go back to texas either way? hah

i drop in glendale and final in tempe. pretty close to phoenix i believe.
i wouldnt mind one non-tarped load for a bit. everything ive been getting recently is tarp tarp tarp. not complaining much since we get paid but a break from doing it in the sun wouldnt mind!

no jsp, no wanda here !

 

Good I've heard the stories. I had a 2 week span of no tarp then 2 tarp loads now back to no tarp on this one.

 

Well, all 4 loads I mentioned out of az are tarp loads i have had one out of allied tube that was not tarped but most of them are, allied tube is drop and hook and the rest are live. Both of your stops are in the phoenix metro area. It hit 116 in phoenix the other day. I live 40 miles east of phoenix. Tarping in 115 degree weather is absolutely no fun at all. Make sure you have plenty of water!

 

Or find a Mexican like in Laredo to do it for you.
