    I didn’t realize the coil was so big? Was guessing around 30k lbs with the car on there? You must have some extra tires?

    *sigh* The very 1st guy, yea. I was just cruising through last year bored looking and his ad caught my eye, so I figured Id call. Gig was good until he just turned to vapor on me. But it is what it is. The 2nd guy I met while running for the 1st guy. Trucks were immaculate and he seemed alright. But I think him leasing his trucks to my former boss and getting screwed out of about 10g's really put a hurtin on him.

    He actually just called me about an hour ago to check in. He was busy with who knows what today but wants me to come down to the yard tomorrow to work on the KW and his new Cascadia. If he's paying me cash, then whatever its something to do until another thing option comes to fruition.

    Triaxle trailer. Legal to 100,600 in Canada. I'm probably sitting just around the 88,000 mark. Hopefully just over so I can get the extra cent a mile for the 1500 miles back to the yard.

    Go to the north end of Maine they said, then turn right. Stop driving before you need a boat they said. Very funny.

    Loading for North Carolina in the morning. GPS is saying take I95, #### that. New York City, Boston, Philly and Washington DC, in one trip, is not happening.

    Was running along 20 with a permitted load. Looked at the time and decided to stop before hitting that Georgia scale. Usually, when in the area, I will stop at the Doghouse at exit 165 in Bama. Had a little time on my hand and pushed it into Georgia. Another oversize was in front of me. He pulls into the Pilot. I go to the old Newborn TS. Huge lot, plenty of parking and they have a restaurant! Why cram into a Loves or a Pilot when you can get into a huge parking area and eat with a fork?

    No, I remembered superhauler had posted a pic of the bostrom seats awhile back and wanted to see what he thought of them. I have a couple of the Seats Legacy Silver's in my trucks and really like them.

    I think I’m going to try one of these, they’re the new OEM seat for Kenworth. The guys I know seem to really like them, $600 Louisville show special since I talked to them down there.
