    Then, that's a good thing. However, my guess is that most guys would find a way to make it work if they were able to earn considerably more money than the average driver at May earns, no?

    And when you go to Denver, you'll most likely be doing Coors and Purina loads. Coors loads are no sweat, once you get the routine down. And pretty they're nice to Drivers, which counts for a lot.

    Purina people (the guards and shipping desk) people are nice too, but beware of the weights! Come in with a half a tank of fuel and even if your DM tells you to fill it beforehand, DON'T! Purina puts every last bit of kibble into the trailer so scaling can be a pain in the arse.

    Furthermore, that particular Pilot is a pain. Once you scale, you gotta park somewhere while you go inside, and I always have to just, um, "be creative" as all the normal, legitimate spots are always filled. Then, when you exit, you go underneath the freeway and try to avoid running into somebody or something.

    Of course, they have you fuel up elsewhere (and the place is west of the convenient Pilot where you already are and somewhat a pain to get to. It's always dark and rush hour by then, but if you saved May Trucking five cents on 400 gallons, that is what is most important, right?...

    Note your steer weights: you might not be able to fill your tanks.
