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

Did he get one of the new Kenworths I saw at the yard on Monday?

 

Yea that what he got. Do they have the table in them tok like the volvos

 

I'm not sure, I've only seen them with the bunk made up. I didn't like that the fridge was so small. How does he like it?

 

He just got it today. I like his volvo when I went with him. I hope all his food will fit bc he runs 13 to 18 days out. I can wait o see this new truck. At least they didnt give him a pete or he would be in shop more than on road. Lol
He did said it rides different. Think he said his new number is 1544 so if u see a new kw out west it may be him he headed to washington. Drive safe truckin monkey and others

 

I'll keep an eye out. I'm heading east now, so maybe we will cross paths.

 

best i could do was a weeks worth of food in a KW frig
i kept a 12 cooler beside my seat with drinks

 

The table is a slide out. The passenger seat swivels. Dennis, my trainee, and I both have food in the fridge. Its crammed full, but I think it'll work. So far I actually like the KW better than the Volvo

 

Yoda takes stuff that last him two days for each thing plus he got lots of dry food too. Oh and he drinks his soda warm and has it by his seat unless he change that up. He will figture out a way to make it work. First company he been with that he actually had a frig so it helps so much

 

Looks like we will make it to Indiana tonight. We both got up at 8 expecting to roll then got the "move" order. Didn't get out of Richmond until 2 thanks to whoever dropped the trailer in Sandston neglecting to report 2 tires with caps about to come off. Joe had a tech get on it as soon as I got back to the yard but that still took time. I don't understand what is so difficult about reporting tire issues to the shop. Why do drivers just leave it for someone else? Does no one understand that at 65 miles an hour these caps can cause a FATAL accident? Its not rocket science.
