    I went through there yesterday.
    I just pulled in to the Route 66 Travel Center just outside Albuquerque, NM, so we must have passed each other at some point.

    I didn't make it as far as I thought and ended up at the Route 66 also lol.\\

    Edit-- in the sleeper, felt my truck rock and knew someone had tangled with my hood. jump up to look and see a trailer wedged up against my hood and lay on the air horn. Quickly trying to get my boots on so I can get this guy off me without too much damage, he backs up a little then just blasts forward blowing his two outside trailer tires while ripping off my bumper and crunching my hood real bad. Truckers running around everywhere trying to run this guy down in the way back lot, word was that they had him blocked in back there but I saw him driving his way back out towards the exit. I walked right infront of his truck and made him stop. He was trying to say the reason he left was to find a parking spot then come back and deal with it. I just told him to pop his brakes right there right now don't move. Plenty of other truckers wanted to gang up on this guy, he was shaken and I think he just panicked. we got the police report all done/pictures and hope things turn out alright.Police decided not to cite him for hit and run even though another witness was pressing the cop that the guy left the scene.

    I'm sorry to hear that, scottie. And I'm glad you were not injured.
    Was he trying to blind side in?

    I'm at a Loves along I-40, 9 miles from the CA border.
    Oh, fun. CA.

    Tomorrow it is a live unload at 1130 in City of Industry, then a live load at 1600 in Ontario. A heavy load of water.
    I'm glad I got a load out of CA so quickly.
    It bounces me right back along my current route to Los Lunas, NM for a drop at Walmart on Wednesday.
