    I drove in yard move for 2.5 hours yesterday because I was up against my 14 and insisted on parking in Barstow instead of Colton and didn't care either, lol!

    If all goes well I should be at Evonik on Sunday instead of Monday due date. Hopefully be able to drop then, haven't been there since I first started here. Rather start a reset Sunday instead of Monday.

    Amazing. I’ve gone 5 days without a complaint. Kingman late this afternoon and Reno late tomorrow afternoon. Well I do have just one complaint, I didn’t hit the $1.3 billion dollar Mega Millions jackpot.

    Ended up dropping this load on the yard being traffic ate up my clock today and got a whopping -1 min left on my 70. Reset til Tuesday. Write up my truck in the morning. Sulfur smell coming from the batteries, betting that is related to my inverter not working. Will check to see if my new license plate is in too.

    Gotta move trucks again....my truck needs an EGR valve and none in stock. Was hoping check engine light was minor or related to the battery issue.

    Feel for you,I dread moving trucks.I have an engine light on now,think it's just the idle code,need to get it checked.

    Got me on a big 400 miler out of Groveport for tommorrow.

    Yeah, I hate it being my lower back is all titanium parts and is destroyed after and hurts for the next day or two. This 21 big volvo got 375k on the clock so prob going to have to move again in a couple months or so or whenever new volvos get in.
