    At the Flying J in Knoxville. Pretty much nonstop rain from Ft. Smith to here. Stopped in Jackson at the Love's for my break and actually got a shower right away.

    That brings me memories of my former co. You know... That one that didn't like drivers to idle above 30%.. I don't like to idle either anyway... Oohhh... but the torture during winter.... :biggrin_2552: I became totally spoiled with this APU now.. :biggrin_25520: I think will not live in another truck without it... :biggrin_25512: And it keeps parts of the engine warm too and the battery charged... :yes2557:

    I didn't do too bad coming in or out but freight was pretty sparse. I did have to DH more than I like but all miles will end up being over $2.50 getting in and out so I'm not complaining.

    Been raining pretty much nonstop in Western NY but temps are in mid 40s so no snow or ice. Win.
