Now I am here... in AZ...
I think this used to be a Pilot.... but not any more... Did my groceries, some cooking in the truck and will leave early in the morning...
Heading to CA... deliver on Monday, then, reload nearby, drop load at co. warehouse in Ontario, grab empty, then go back to same shipper, reload and head to IN...
Load assignment shows 2180 miles loaded... that is if I go thru NV, UT, CO, NE, IA, etc. Not sure I want to do that...
Gotta check the weather report for next week... I was planning on going thru AZ, NM, TX, OK, MO, IL, etc. But that will add about 50 more miles... Shall see...

Well... I try to save miles, if I can... anything between 10 and 20 extra miles is still "ok"... Above that, I may discuss route with dispatcher... If I need to run extra miles for a good reason, they pay the extra miles.
