    Sorry to jump in here. Can anyone help me with directions on how to get into "Mauser" 219 Commerce Drive. Mount Vernon, OH coming from Ohio I-71 South and taking 299 East; and what is the best way getting out going to Hopewell, Virginia?

    We service a CO2 tank next door. I'd get off 71 at the US 36 exit and go east on 36. Flying J is at the exit. If Mauser was on the west side of the train tracks you can turn just past the truck stop on OH 56. It yiy then have to wind through Mt Vernon.
    Go 36 east to Mt Venon then follow signs for Industrial Park. I think it's the first left after you go over the over pass for railroad

    Mt Vernon is cut in half by rr tracks and a quarry. You can also go into town and come back south on Oh 13

    Speaking of people not doing their jobs, stop me if you've heard this one...

    Got a load assignment yesterday. Hill-Phoenix load, has to be in Dallas on Tuesday. That's three days to make a two-day trip. Cool, an extra day off for my birthday. (I turned 50 on Friday.)

    But before I left the yard and headed back to the apartment, I decided to find the trailer I needed to hook (so that I would know right where it was when I came back). And while I was there, I pre-tripped it.

    Well, whaddaya know, it's got a flat tire. GOOD THING I CHECKED IT, RIGHT? WHY, THEY HAVE ALL DAY TO GET IT FIXED!

    (He said, with completely unjustified optimism.)

    Put in the repair ticket yesterday at 11:00am. Hit the yard today circa 9:30am, ready to roll. Trailer still where I'd left it. Tire still flat.

    Thanks for the information. Some drivers mention that there is a lot ristricted
    Thanks for the info. Some drivers mentioned that going back out is very tricky; because of the many " No trucks allowed sign" What would be the best way getting out; going to Hopewell, Virginia?

    They only work until 4 or 5 on Saturdays. I was at the yard on a Saturday and had to call Breakdown to fix my flat.

    You need to buy and learn how to read a map.

    Not writing it up is just being lazy, but if you don't do the required post trip you won't find a defect.
