    Man, sorry to hear...

    glad you got a backup and what sounds like a plan for a replacement.

    After I got loaded this morning I made another pick then 200 miles. Unloaded then 200 miles to another pickup. Parked at the 294 Oasis in the no parking zone. Only had a little bit of a red line tonight. Going to do an 8 2 split so I can get the heck out of here in the morning.
    Headed South Dakota way.

    Edit: you can’t do an 8 2 split if you don’t have any hours left from the day before. Duh!
    I always forget that little part.

    NW Transport was another one...55 mph.

    I was told the mattress in the sleeper was on a chunk of plywood suspended from four trampoline springs.

    I'm not sure if it's the same builders and someone got tired of looking at that sweet paint scheme or if it's just the same name.

    Pay close attention- Notice the Fuel stamp decals from each state when Bingo's were around?
