Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

Hammer works well in those instances.

I do get them a lot as I live right down the street from the distribution center. Ask away.

 

You called it on the volvo, but its to Jacksonville. Never been to reno, had a load there once but it was taken off me and given to a team.

 

Sweet love running volvo light loads dh,but I also like running to Jacksonville.Looks like youll maybe be in line for a load of paper out of Riceboro,Ga,just been my experience though.

 

This started out as a HPh load going to Lake Charles, La. I had requested a 34 at home. I was to pick my wife back up, too. I ended up with a 34 in Richmond and a load to Murfreesboro, Tn, and no wife.

Waiting for next load now at the local Pilot.

 

I have concidered getting a rubber mallet for such situations.

 

Sorry to hear,I havent seen the yard in almost 2 weeks,its been a wonderful feeling,but all good things must come to an end.

 

@KD5AXG.thats what I use,plus its good fot thumping tires on your pre,post trip.

 

Yea, it seems (still awaiting scientific data) that as soon as I get east of a line from Pensacola to Nashville to Indianapolis to Chicago, I have to add 4 hrs to my GPS's eta. West of that line, I only add 1hr. I try to avoid the east as much as possible. But, I must go where I can safely go when they tell me.

Not picking on you, but I wonder how I make it 630 miles in a shift including a delivery and a pick up (at the same place at least), while having to pass through Nashville, Louisville, Cincinnati, and Dayton. If I applied your reasoning, it would be impossible. Again, not picking on you KD5.

 

My luck, I suppose. I rarely make a good run out this way.

Just got a DH to Forest City. Laters.
