    It's all good. Wasn't too bad really, just a lot of BS information, and I knew it was gonna be BS, that's why I planned out S awhile ago, and let him take Casper. I could just smell it.

    Next one will be much easier.

    Not to harsh your mellow, but 2 weeks to get a truck on the road, is not a miracle; it's an accomplishment.
    It's a semantic kind of thing.
    Well done anyway. :p
     
    Dave_in_AZ Thanks this.

    It's not there yet. Gotta get the e log. It's 7 business days now. You cannot begin to imagine, well maybe you can, the amount of " That's not supposed to be...…." / " There's not supposed to be...………." / " That should be...…….." / and just over all wrong information. Operations is like that. You never wanna deal with them. And it has changed since I put my truck on. But now I know what it entails, even if they change it slightly again.

    .......so I show up to put mine on the road. Slept in a motel the night before so that I could get in early and get out. So, 2 hours later, nope.....you need a sliding 5th wheel. But.....you never said anything about a sliding 5th wheel. Sorry rules is rules.
    So, go down to the wrecked truck place and spend $1400 on a sliding 5th wheel and spend another night in the motel, (with multiple taxi rides).

    At one point the lady said "you need xyz."
    I said, "no, I'm done. You can keep it."

    Then my guy in Charlotte called me and talked me off the ledge.....and here I am.
    But I swear, these folks act like this is the first time. They do not have the sensibility of a truck driver putting multiple stops together.
    It's very frustrating.
