    Should've asked what it was. I had one dropping 2 50 pound little generators. Then half went another then last half at 3rd. I shared a bed with those 2 generators only for one night, sure wasn't untarping for that.

    I need new truck, seems the high altitude fixed my coolant leak, hasn't leaked since I left denver. Apu won't fire on own, batteries are shot and truck wont fire without apu, regen about 3 times a day. Told them to send me to Tulsa so I'm at least not sitting in dive dealership or repair shop. Oh and small air leak.

    yea i forgot to look. but it seems like its the top pieces since those are the only things that could weigh that much. long pieces across.
    normally dont get many multiple stop loads. but considering that this stop is only 30 miles from the final, it seems like they (cons) would be spending more money having me drop it there instead of just picking it up at the final. sometimes things dont make sense...but it isnt my money!

    well turning in for the night, i only pick up about 6 hours tomorrow, i hope i dont have to reset in the middle of the week. id like to just keep going. not much i can do, ill be burning half those hours getting there.

    i forgot to look or ask because i was sidetracked with the heat quite honestly. just wanted to get done and move out, i told myself to look too but in the middle of it all just forgot

    well pick up around here and take it to el paso terminal by friday morning. its about 600 miles with deadhead.
    i could use some clean laundry, hopefully i can do that there while i wait for the weekend load.
    i only havr an hour and a half left today, but i get 9 tomorrow and 9 friday. hoping for another 1k for the weekend.

    each time i come off hometime i seem to have some truck problems and end up not being as productive as i hoped.
    got my apu fixed pretty quick last week in florida, so im pretty happy that im still rollin. truck seems great with no issues...hopefully i havent jinxed myself.

    super hot out here in arizona...100+.

    No laundry or shower in El paso. It's just a dirt lot with a trailer as the office. The property is shared with another company.
