    If they don't throw 2300 of tsc at you :O

    One thing I wish they would have done for solos.
    The check balancing like they do teams.
    Sucks to pay taxes...then again you Florida boys dunno our "Common wealth" struggle :O

    Snagged a Prius c for 9000 after all the fun fees.
    Has 41000 miles on it though.

    Wasn't going 3 hours for nothing. Should have no problem getting 12000 for it. Sticker @16499 lol.

    Hey guys...on those suggested fuel locations. Are you guys abiding by it? I do most of the time, but occasionally I don't. Like, for instance, when I passed through Phoenix they wanted me to fill up at CNF both times, but I fueled at FJ because it was faster and easier. Also, every time I go through Baton Rouge, they have me fueling at the Pilot at exit 10 on I-12. I always skip that one because it is a cluster you know what. Nonetheless, most of the time I abide by the suggested fueling locations. Anyway, to compare notes...what are you guys doing?

    Haha.....yup I did a 11Pm rally burger and a BLT..... free sandwich on receipt if I do a survey and buy a large drink....

    I fuel where I want.....dont follow that routing either or you might end up going the long route

    I buy fuel when it is convenient to a 30 minute break or a 10 hour break...cnf only when I pull one of their loads or relay there.

    Also, at most cnf terminals, you are not allowed to pull a trailer through the fuel island. Very inconvenient unless you have a reason to unhook there...just sayin...

    Still in Albuquerque...marker lights are warranty so go to dealer after delivering. Dealer has to order the part. WTF!!

    I wonder what they stock if they don't carry lights...
