New horizons with Holland Enterprises (Fargo,ND)

Last few weeks have been good for me. I'll deliver a 3,300 mile load a few hours after cut-off Tuesday morning that will (would have) put me right at 7,500 miles for 14.2 days (with load carry over from previous cycle) If I wasn't so heavy, my hours tomorrow might let me get to Post Falls to rest to run the last leg Tuesday early morning but I just don't think I can average 61 MPH between Columbus and the Post Falls J ... so St Regis it is since I don't know what parking areas are open between there and Post Falls due to summer construction

I noticed A LOT of trucks headed east across I-94 Montana/N Dakota last few days. But then again, this is the first load across the top, either direction, I've had in 45 days so maybe it's normal traffic for late July

How is every one else doing?

 

I've been seeing a lot of them along there myself, from both holland and gpt. Been pushing a bit lately, did a swap and heading back east, getting close to my time off. Looks like I might break my mileage record for this month, things seem to be picking up here.

 

I've been running hard also the past 4 weeks.That was a #### rough stretch for about 3 months there.

 

In the shop for the 4th time now in 2 months. Had the best 7 day stretch yet last week (almost 3800 miles), knew I should have kept the loner truck lol

 

You didn't leave?

 

Made it 250 miles before the engine compartment started making a grinding noise

 

That sux man.

 

Yikes....

 

He shouldn't have done a reset under a load.
Geez really.

 

Still running good ... too good. Been more then maybe 8 days since I woke up with anything more then 6-10 hours on my 70, and with current load and preplan, I don't see getting any time to "sit and build hours" until at least some time after next Friday (today is Saturday) The preplan appointment at HEB San Antonio for Friday @ 17:00 is going to be difficult and tight at best looking this far out.
