    So, trailer tails are awesome. 1200 miles from Washington to north Dakota, 65 mph, and over 7 mpg. Gross 79k.

    Got my sat tv installed. Not only is it normal direct tv, it comes with hbo, showtime, Cinemax and NFL ticket. Pretty nice, especially when they are paying for it.

    I'm sure that Holland will be regretting this decision to install the sat and tvs very soon. Productivity will dropping like a rock before they know it.

    I really don't think so. In this day and age, many drivers already have other ways to watch tv or movies. It's not hard to stream these things through a laptop or smart phone. Some even already have sat tv that they have been paying for themselves.

    Glad your health is better! I've had my tv for almost a week now. Out of the channels we have, most of them are BS. Shopping and learning etc. It's nice being able to watch the news now, and of course the movie and NFL ticket are great. The satellite is very sensitive. If you move more than a foot or two, it has to recycle. Of course this only matters when you're getting loaded or unloaded and need to move from staging to dock.

    Picked up in dallas going to Minnesota with 3 drops,then load and to Oklahoma.

    The Washout after the Tree Load was a PITA.
    $70 still have some left over Ants and maybe Spiders from the Trees.
    There were still some crawling around after they washed it.


    Home for now, going to deliver Monday.
    Then I will go back home, and leave prolly Tue/Wed.

    Gave me a broker load to go Home from Houston.
    1/2 load of Motor Oil.
    Guess I will need to get to yard after home.
    Got an Oil Leak on APU and Cracks in both Windshields.
