    In Columbia SC at a TA tonite. Deliver and pickup in Four Oaks NC then home for the weekend. Back out Sunday afternoon to deliver in McDonough GA Monday morning at 6am, that is if I don't run out of my 70 tomorrow.

    Looks like this Southeast regional is predicated on many loads going through Atlanta. Yuck! Guess I will find out the next few weeks. Started yesterday at 2am from 150 miles south of there in Cordele to get through there by 5am to I 75 North to relay drop a pallet load (going back to Omaha) at "our Dalton GA drop yard" which is actually someone else's body shop where it has room for 5-6 of our FCC trailers. Since this SE regional is new, to FCC I guess you gotta start small. I am one of twelve drivers in this Southeast region for FCC. Just hope everything doesn't go through Atlanta!

    It looks like they're trying to expand it. They have an ad reposted every week on Craigslist in my area (north FL).

    Dropped in Sumter, my load coming back out of there wasn’t going to be ready right away, so after discussing it with dispatch I bobtailed home. I will squeeze in a 34 and then go back down to Sumter Sunday morning and pick up a preloaded trailer going to Holdrege, Nebraska for a drop Tuesday morning.

    I came through Columbia earlier, had I known you were there I would have swung in and said hello.

    Dropped by load at Becton Dickinson in Four Oaks NC and picked up load from same. Home for 45 hours then leave Sunday for McDonough GA. Drop Monday at 6am then over to Madison GA for dog food going to Southeastern Freight in Orlando for Tuesday. Love the preplanning here! Going out for 12 days. Long time since I been out quite that long! Hope my wife can handle it!

    Yeah, I was there at the TA from 1430/Thurs until 0630/this morning. Been fighting my 70 all week but made it home to my truck stop with half hour to spare.

    Have been a lurker on this thread awhile and enjoying the posts. Just a quick question out of pure nosiness, every night when I leave Kansas City, MO there’s a FCC truck leaving or swapping out at a customer. I don’t want to name specifics but it’s on Front Street, and there’s more than a couple FCC trailers staged or in doors. Is that a dedicated account and possibly the same guy every night? Reason I ask is because it’s like clockwork every night. I get my bills at my cut time, go down Front Street and he’s either pulling out of the gate or cranking up his trailer.

    I’ve never been there, we do have at least one local guy that runs KCMO, is it a day cab or sleeper? I know some guys are on dedicated accounts for certain customers.
