    That's what I've been wondering. Last I knew he was going for his citizenship stuff, then totally dissappeared.

    Nice set-up.... Looks like a guitar amp up there? I'm ordering my 2nd microwave for this thing, had to send them original one I bought back to Amazon since it wouldn't work. I'm also wondering what would be best for putting down as an anti-slip covering for the top bunk in this truck. I haven't put anything up there yet for fear it would get bounced around on me and bean me in the noggin while I'm driving lol.

    So far it's been good for me here on the blue side. Unfortunately I'm now in Laredo on what's called the broker-load from hell. Not any fault of the company, this was meant to get me out of the area and into where the better stuff is, just the broker and shipper are not very helpful.

    Yeah it can be a pain with those border loads. Don't get many of them here, actually very rarely get down to the border towns.

    On my top bunk I got a large kind of rubber-vinyl pad. I think it is actually designed for standing at the sink doing dishes. But it works well for not sliding and providing some cushion. Then I have straps that hold things down and can be pulled to tighten. Got those in the car/rv department at Walmart. I haven't had anything fall but have to tighten the straps occasionally. They are long enough to wrap all the way around the bunk.

    Don't know. There was the citizenship deal, and he also had at least one significant accident or safety violation he talked about once. If he got another that might have been too much.

    Got a load from DFW up to Fargo couple drops on it.
    Tonight and in the AM.

    While I was waiting on my Truck to be finished in the shop, they asked me if I wanted a new one.
    I took the new one.

    I saw on holland's fb page that i35 is FUBAR. Finally got out of Laredo, now going to DFW in the morning , picking a nice simple run over the weekend going to AZ, not exactly a huge run, but will keep me busy over the weekend and not blow out what's left of my 70.

    Saw that, kinda glad not headed that way. Guess I came up 35 at the right time 3-4 days ago lol.

    Delivered my 2 stops in Fargo. Dropped of a couple cases of Milk /rejected product at the office.

    Swapped the GP Trailer for a Holland Trailer.
    Picked up another GP Trailer at a drop hook customer in Minnesota.
    Going to Tracy for Monday.
    Not sure about '70' though.

    They got me going to Tracy for Monday, was originally going to go to AZ, but just as soon as I left for the shipper, dispatch started blowing up my phone, begging me to take this 4 stopper instead, another driver didn't have the hours. I figured I'd be close on hours but not too bad. I could use the miles, need to keep the green stuff coming in.
