Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

Yes, mostly. I made the one trip from Minnesota to Florida and blew the turbo on the 1st truck. Used another drivers truck to finish that load and made a Florida to Minnesota run. Then got in the 3rd truck, my truck, in Minnesota. Been in it ever since. All 3 trucks are 2007 T600s with 1.2million on them. Mine is an Ungoverned 13 speed. No Qualcomm, elogs, ez pass, prepass, onguard,.....Just a sharp pen, ruler, and a couple paper log books. More miles than you can shake a stick at.

 

This is what we have to deal with as Yankees...

 

We have a smaller black version of those here...along with FL panthers, scorpions, a wide variety of poisonous snakes...and the most dangerous creature of all...snowbirds

See what I mean...gotta' keep the Yankee population under control... (Missouri is still north enough to have their share of Yankees)

 

I left home a week ago, ended up at KC in Owensboro Friday, got "lucky" and got a load from there to Vegas.
Spent last night at home and if I can run 1,800 miles in 3 days I can reset In Vegas before I deliver on the 25th.
I'm running 70 over to 15 and down. I hope it don't snow

 

.

 

Yuck, maybe I'll get lucky and hit clear roads there tommorow afternoon

 

Made it to Vegas, hit about 30 miles of snow on I 70 in Utah, maybe the 70 to 110 mile markers.wmt
There is a whole tcall story I could tell... but why not reset in Vegas after logging 4 twelve hour days? Math says I'd have to reset somewhere. Odds say, it won't be in as great a place.
Plus the driver on hometime can enjoy his day off rather than swap trailers with me .

 

Another example of college kids in the office that can't do simple math... When it comes to hours of service
