    We just fled Kommiefornia and moved up to the Reno Nevada area, Fernley and Fallon last week. My company is expanding their presence here and I hope to be the local guy. I would not even consider it in Lost Angeles, but i will up here.

    I'm about 300 miles from delivery in Salt Lake city on this load i picked up in NJ. Appt time is set for 7am tomorrow. From what i understand they only accept you 15 minutes before appt time. Debating weather i want to go park there at customer or at our yard for the night. Will see what happens..

    That's how I like to run. Gimme 70, burn it up, reset, repeat. On very rare occasion it doesn't work out perfectly but 98% of the time I can produce more miles in a month. Plus, that reset is like a mini home time. Get some food shopping and or laundry done, have a sit down meal and a nice rest. I run hard so it works best for me.

    Nice thread you have here. Thanks for taking the time. ;)

    Decided to just hang out at the yard. Needed to get some things done here anyway. I will do my 10 and deliver first thing in morning. Made a special request this morning to my dispatcher. Last minute home break. Need to switch some things out of the truck and get some paperwork that came up last minute.

    Got my next load going home to Socal.

    Okay. Delivering at 7 am this morning. Then my going home load pickup is at 18:00 hmmm. Long period of time between the drop and pickup. This happens here sometimes. Will just have to see if i can pick up that load early. If they have it ready. Will see what happens. Time now for some coffee, then get out of here.:D

    20181030_054909.jpg Speaking of coffee! Few months ago i declared this little gem as required onboard truck equipment. Mini Keurig :coffee2: great for those uncivilized parking events where you can't get a hot cup of brew. Don't know why i didn't think of it sooner lol
