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

@MidWest_MacDaddy didn't you say you had a Canada loading coming up? Was that you in the Volvo on the QEW towards Buffalo this evening?

 

Because my delivery is 1.4 miles from there.

 

YES... That was me!!!

Sitting at the Duty Free Shop at the moment ... stocking up on all kinds of beer and liquor... Christmas is coming... LOL

the upper bunk will be overflowing... I better find that safety bunk strap thingy...

Got an awesome pork wrap and extra large coffee at Tim Hortons too.

Time to roll south...
if they let me back in the US that is.

 

They have security/anti syphon cages inside the necks.

 

Nice town, Huntington. We used to fish the reservoir on SR5 going south out of town.

 

I had the same experience with a '14 & '17 KW. It's one of those things you just have to get used to...that and the jacked up KW head/park/trailer light switches...oh, and the engine brake switches way over on the dash nowhere near the steering wheel where both hands should be.

But other than that it's my fave truck.

 

Did it take that long to unload you?. I was there just shy of 2 hrs. I headed back to the husky, but got a load shortly after.

Good luck getting back in. I had the nastiest U.S. customs guy I have ever encountered in my 39yrs of international travel. A crying shame that people like him are the first contact for travellers to the US.

 

Agreed, drop the trailer at the yard and bobtail over if you need a shower etc and cant find a regular truck parking spot.

Im pretty sure I was told that walmart didnt even want bobtails parking there.

 

Glad the company sent out a fleetwide message and has superior communication with the drivers to let us know... especially the ones like, uh me?, who actually run off that yard..
