Good LORD, this SLC has jumped to the top of my worst terminal list. I pulled my truck into the "quick lane" at about 1200 hours. At around 1330...
My beautiful bride stayed up and gave me a ride to the truck at 0100 hours. I got the load to SLC on time. I lucked out and was able to get the...
I dropped my load off and ran over to get my new one. The darn thing was so heavy I couldn't put anymore then half a tank of fuel on. The night...
Probably because I was in the right place at the right time. I have no idea really. It was a drop and hook so it could have been picked up any time.
So today is a messed up day, but I did get to spend and Easter breakfast with my wife. It was at a truck stop but at least I got to see her....
I just sent you a PM
I can't speak for the rest of the Swift drivers, but having down time has been the norm since I went solo. I know we're still in the slow time of...

Here's the rest of the story on the beer kegs. When I got to Busch to make the delivery I noticed another Swift truck sitting on the side of the...
Perhaps in my younger days....
Ok, you win.
I came back on after having some good home time. It was great to do some physical labor and actually sleep in my bed. I had a load waiting for...
I'm very fortunate in that my wife runs our other business at a profit otherwise I would be doing something else.
No, your truck is not your home. It's an argument folks in motor homes have used for years. While there is some case law to back them up, there...
I spent 20 years in LE in Idaho and never saw anything like you described. Even with a warrant, if we destroyed anything the department had to pay...
