    I always assumed the Natural Prairie's out in Hartley were covering the West Point facility. I guess they're running short.

    The California regional drivers and the OTR drivers do. They issue them to you whenever you ask for them, then they deduct $25 per check until they have $300 of your money as an equipment deposit. You get it back when you turn them in, whether you quit IRT or whether Spring gets here and you just don’t want them in the truck anymore. Putting them on is your choice. IRT doesn’t force you to drive if you feel like you need to shut down.

    I loaded at a fairly new plant called Kilmar Cheese with cream.

    You must've loaded at their CA facility. They've got another one just north of the Hartley Natural Prairie's up in Dalhart. I've hit the Dalhart one when I was with Ruan and my brief stint at Cardinal prior to doing a couple of runs up to their with Indian River.
    Getting loaded with a cream load and getting regular milk unloaded was quite quick there. But getting a cream load unloaded, that was a whole different issue.

    Yes, I loaded in Turlock, California. Are you saying that unloading this cream load at West Point, NE is going to be a long wait? I started in Reno this morning. I’m at exit 30 in Wyoming, just shut down for the night. Covered 617 miles and was down to 47 minutes drive time. I deliver Monday at 4pm.

    .41 loaded and empty. If the load is under a certain distance (I want to say 450 miles) then it’s .46 loaded and .41 empty. If it’s under I think 250 miles it’s 24%. You’re better off calling down to Florida and talking to them though.
