    We have 4 new ones. I have no idea what the deal is, but Saturday I saw one headed east on 40 in New Mexico.

    Right now I'm parked in a chain up area just before I-70 in Utah. Waiting on daylight so I can deal with this snow better. Or as I tell my wife, it's better in daylight, at least I can see where I'll land should I run off the side of a mountain.

    If I recall correctly I think u said your truck# 1313 well it's sitting beside body shop still red tagged mean while I'm in line having new stickers put on.

    So first load of the year started off getting refused in Connecticut. Fast forward was told to bring cases back to the yard which worked out perfectly because the backhaul I was on protoctor and gamble address was kinda sketchy great relief on my end manage to make back to Richmond parked at the house for the evening, headed to Milford, ct for A.M unload

    Now that is interesting. I wonder what the deal is with them? Don't think I'd want to be hauling them, though.

    @MidWest_MacDaddy , stop breaking the trucks! LOL That happened to me when I first started, too. Third one is the one, at least for me it was. I really miss 1319. This stupid thing I'm in now reads 50 degrees when it's 25 and won't run. And it's missing a lot of those little whatchamacallits in the dash. Heck, every time I hit a bad bump, the panic button comes out and flops around!

    I'm headed to Lancaster Pa out of Hodge La. Heavy roll paper. Not too bad riding, though. Stopping by the yard to get my IFTA and permits updated. Almost forgot that I needed to do that!

    @JohnBoy be careful over there. Mountains-yuck. Mountains & snow- uh uh, yuck, yuck!!
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.

    I thought that I would ring in the new year in a unique and different way this year. After all, driving down an interstate in the middle of the night with lights a flashing is really rather festive don't you think?

    At a pick up between Wytheville and Richmond now to be dropped off at the Richmond yard... Then find out what the plan is... If there is one that is... I'm thinking it may be best to just head home and start fresh in Feburary... LOL :D

    Your're headed to my back yard, Rebel. Do you know where you're going in Lancaster?
