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

When I had my KW, #1717, the one I put the first 568,000 miles on without a scratch, then was totaled by the next driver the following 3,000 miles, I had 6 wheel seals put on it. Not just the seals, but new brake shoes as well. Glad you got back to the mothership ok.

 

Got my Michigan load dropped and don’t pickup til tomorrow in Toledo going to WM yard. Then a 34. Supposed to get a day layover.

 

Pitt-Ohio?

 

Yup, that volvo load that is a live unload. DM said it was being split to the yard.

 

I hate when they change wiper blades during a pm service and don’t make sure they are attached solidly…. started pouring rain in Ky and lost the driver side blade. Thankfully I keep spares in the side box with all my tools and stuff.

 

I had a Pete, that if you looked at the wiper blade wrong, it flew off. Mighty convenient in winter slush.....

 

Zip tie that muhfuggah

 

Ya, had a few wiper blades come loose on me in my Green Truck. So I started carrying a couple spares. So when I hoped in the Red Truck, I asked for a couple spares. Parts Guy looked at me funny but gave me a couple. Three years later, not once did any come off. LOL … must be the difference between Volvo vs KW… or Green vs Red …

 

Ran down to Savannah to grab a load and your new yard there caught my eye. I barely got a good look at it before I was passed it. Looked pretty nice from my brief peek at 68mph.

 

No showers, porta potties in use. It’s on well water and the water isn’t fit for drinking, washing or showering. Another fine example of cutting corners to save a penny. The well system that was put in is wrong, the water that is pumped to the building is borderline raw sewage. Can’t even brush your teeth. You’ve heard the expression, what do you have when you put lipstick and a dress on a pig, it’s a pig.
