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

When did they start doing their own customs paperwork?. The one and only time I went to Canada, I had to swing by the yard for the paperwork, which I assumed was done by Abilene. Had no issues at all and was less than 3 mins at CA customs window.

Can we also get Tracy clones to work at every shipper and receiver we have to deal with?. I would suggest getting one to work at the brokers also, but chances are someone with competence and an aptitude for professionalism working at a broker would unravel their business model.

 

Jean is the one that does all the customs paperwork, and it's always done correctly. Like you, I've been through customs for Abilene in 4 different border crossings with probably 12 different loads over the last 4 years, never an issue. For whatever reason, HP insists on doing their own. Great end result for 36 hours and a reset st the impound lot.

 

As far as Tracy is concerned, I've heard nothing but good things about her since she hired on. This was the first time I've had any dealings with her. I felt and still feel bad about what happened. I never crossed the line during my rant with her. But nonetheless will make it a point to personally apologize to her when I get in tonight.

 

A class act as always. Kudos to you John.

 

I might just call in and thank her... LOL

 

Never return a meal to the chef and never, I repeat never, get/keep the attention of a guy with a badge, a gun, and a book of mementos .. LOL

All together now... {singing} ... don't spit into the wind, don't hold onto Supermans cape, don't mess around with a junkyard dog, and you don't mess around with Jim...

 

@JohnBoy if your still in richmond this morning i should be there around 8am


Made it in and out of manhattan wo issues and no tickets this time. Why is each liftgate unload have to be in a bus stop???

 

Nope, in this situation, a face to face is required.

 

If anyone is interested in the CoPilot GPS for Truck ... I think it's currently on sale (iOS) from $150 down to $100.

It's a similar program that is on your QC but it's better if on a smartphone than on the QC... and its "mobile" and can be used outside the truck.

Note: this is for the Apple iOS platform and not sure how they work on the Android platform.


Stay Safe,

Well, I'm not driving all the way to Richmond to express my appreciation of taking care of my OTR friends...
