How is the week treating everyone ?

 

Been running my ### off, no longer have beeping in my truck, and just got hone for hometime headed to pick up my twins so pretty #### good.

 

Sounds like a great week.

 

Yrs sir no doubt. Now if i could just get me a student to train...

 

I am so ready 16 days and counting for class. My duffle bag is already packed

 

Due to an unfortunate set of circumstances I have been on the "Night Train an entire week, not finishing for the day til between 6-8am & not starting til 4-6pm . I don't mind doing a lot of driving at night, but driving all the way through the night til past Sunrise really drains you. Gonna try and start maneuvering my hours back to something normal over the weekend if possible. When I came off Hometime last Friday my truck was dead & side radar was out & it took several hours for them to fix, then I had a steer tire blow in the middle of nowhere KY at 2am and was on the side of the road for over 6hrs, so all of that is what flipped my hours at the start of this run. Haven't had a problem finding parking though lol! When I roll in everyone else is rolling out and parking is primo!
Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

 

#### man that sucks! I hate those hours, that time right before sunrise gets me everytime if I start before 3am. Doesnt matter if I've slept for 4 hours or 10 I'm guaranteed to be tired at that time, but then right after that I'm good to go. Steer tire blew? Ugh glad you're OK.

 

Keen, new truck auto or stick?

 

Auto...sticks are few and far between. Id guess prob less than 50 still on road

 

Im glad you are okay. I have seen a lot of videos where a truck would blow a steer tire and lost control.
