Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

I've had 2 tires replaced. But theyou weren't usable, so I told the vendor to keep them. They were not safe to use. I didn't want to risk them being reused by our [cough] knowledgeable tire guy.

 

I was at the consignee when I discovered the tire behind the coolers otherwise I might have been tempted to "rehome" it behind a truck stop shop or similar.

The trailer must have been dropped at hp with the tire in the nose so the hp guys simply loaded the coolers behind it.

 

Nice!!

I've had one instance of mountain driving. A route everyone knows all too well. First load with my trainer with Roehl started in Aurora, IL to a Wal-Mart DC in Sutherland, VA... Drove the US-35 route through OH and all of 64 east through WV and VA. Some decent grades if you ask me, lol. Also a few tight squeezes through a few of those toll booths, lol.

 

Those eastern toll booths are a joke. I don't do less than 35 thru any of them.

 

I think I went even slower, with a reaction of holy crap are you kidding me?

 

If you think those hills are "decent grades", then you're really gonna love it out west. Makes those little things seem like ant hills.

 

I am from central IL, so anything taller than a ant hill is a decent grade for me, lol. Going to be fun.

 

I knew I liked you for some reason!!!

 

My mountain driving was in the Rockies. Freak snow storm in April in northern Arizona. No big deal. Just a bit more aware and careful.

 

Where did you pull that from?

Something must have changed in the last year... As of November of last year there were NO regional drivers outside of the NE... lol

This company makes me laugh now and then.
