I was at Opies the other day and I can't help but wonder why are we washing there? why are we giving our competitors our money? also aren't they worried about their drivers being recruited?

 

because their cheaper then the quala wash by the petro

 

you think?? so it would be 2.5 with the 26 hr unload

 

I always liked Opies tank wash. Got to do laundry for free there, shower, and watch TV while getting washed. Just like in Tulare, CA. Plus every time I left Opies I usually got a really good run out of American Yeast going to Bakersfield California.

 

I've done 3 loads out of American Yeast, one to Rhinelander, WI to a place that's located in the middle of town and surrounded by restricted routes. one to Bakersfield (great run if you ignore the California part) and most recently to Baltimore.

but I also do like the tank wash in Tulare! the only bad thing is they don't speak English. (oh, and the fact its California)

 

Last time I delivered in Bakersfield I washed in Tulare, loaded for Nebraska in Turlock and spent the night in Reno at a casino along the way. Had a few beers and lost $100. Ran I-80 all the way to Norfolk.

i'm not trying to one-up you but last time I went to Bakersfield I was deadheaded to Prosser, WA to go to Newark. No idea why I was deadheaded so far, but whatever.

i've been IN California Thrice, and all three times they've done a good job getting me out (and in too, sadly) does anyone else have the same experience?

 

The first time I went to California for IRT was from McAllen. I took a load to Ontario, washed in Tulare, loaded in Visalia, and was sent from there to Bradenton Florida Tropicana (2600+ miles). This last time I went to Nebraska from Turlock then to Oneida New York.
