    Well I'm more pissed at myself than anything. Cause I should have known better than to F with that load. This is back to back debaucles for them, and it's because the owner got into it with dude that knew his stuff, fired him, and now brought in the dumbest c in the history of the universe.
    Example: Last trip she has two hard appointments set an hour apart. This includes the receiving part. Well, they're 110 miles apart. This tells me someone isn't even looking at what's going on.

    This is God teaching me a lesson as well. I was gonna rest up, and didn't.

    Staged pic. There are no lick marks on that tub of dip. All cat owners know that cats want to smell for their curiosity. Open a tub of something then take the pic when the cat is near. No licking involved.

    Another bit of humor. If you want the quick joke with out the rest. Just read the lower right hand corner.

    No she'd polish off as much as a cat could hold if I'd let her.

    1342 miles.:eek:

    Or I can sit here for 3 days. And it would probably still be another 2 to get a load home, then 3 more to get there.

    And it will be a few days to get a load anywhere really.

    Cause the holiday.

    You guys are actually like 51% responsible for this. If you'd put some coin in my Go Fund Me pages for a ZL1 Camaro, and the 120" sleeper truck, these things probably wouldn't happen.

    Well I got to working on the farm tractor. Got it running again. I had fixed the larger hydraulic leak only to realize that when you build up more pressure, the other leaks show. Yet everything works hydraulic wise.

    There is a knock to it. Yet the knock doesnt change with engine RPM's. To loosen the alternator means putting my hand into the cooling fan because some one put the bar that one loosens to adjust a alternator on backwards. So the slot is on the engine and not the alternator. (easy fix) There are thre different owners prior to me that have (cough cough) worked on the wiring. One owner did it all in black wire. The next owner used rigid house wire, which fails when you run a tractor. The next owner spliced what ever they had laying around the shop and spliced multiple short wires to connect the alternator to the battery and the battery to the starter. Each owner would only cut the last owners wiring and cable tie their wiring onto the previous owners job.

    Yes I will remove all the wiring and put a good wiring loom on it. Using the OEM wiring plan and correct colors. It isnt that hard to buy $20 of wire and do it correctly.

    gotta say, 1342 deadhead might not be a record, but it's a heck of an average.
    I thought I was being extravagant when I did 650 one time.
