When I was on OTR, I got home for four or five days every five or six weeks, except for the time I wanted to stay out longer and that was three...
lol, my Pete's APU started doing the same thing tonight. Goes off and says ALT and the fault lite comes on. I noticed the voltage on the inverter...
Good idea for most situations. My FM is the Kraft dispatcher for this region. I'm on his dedicated fleet here doing mostly Pillsbury, some Kraft....
Guess I'm changing fleets. Was given a choice of going onto a dedicated running out of KY to Chicago and WI, or going OTR. I hoped for a chance to...
Well, after a night at one Kraft, no empty trailers. I head over to the other one, and guess what. No ******* empties. I call the local towing...
Well, stuck in Groveport again. Rolled in last night/early morning and no empties. The trailer I dropped has been loaded and sits waiting for...
Oh I hate that place! At least you got a live load. Try getting one of those trailers out of where they park them! Geeze! Not to mention I have to...
Well, picked up last night, delivered this morning, just enough time to come down and pick up next load and shut down for the night. Going to...

Been getting short miles last several weeks. If I was married etc, if I leased, or had big bills, I'd be hurting by now. On the other side of...
With you on this. I enjoy my day so much more when I roll along and let the other guys worry about getting around anything going less than sixty....
If it were a computer I'd put together, I'd start by swapping memory, then CPU, then the mobo. But it's a little gray box that I can't do anything...
Learning it was a snap. But I do have a good strong background in computers, so that could make a huge difference in learning curve. What I meant...
Yup, it is. Training is the same at about all the companies as far as what to take. The difference is what you're taught, and how it's taught....
