    I wish I went flatbed 8 years ago when I first started. Maybe if I did I wouldn't have such a fatazz and gut like I do now. Plus there's a guy that works for "tmc" that lives up the road from me. Yea, he's home every weekend too

    You headed to the yard to pickup your truck or is it fixed yet? I just noticed today I'm about 4k from a service

    That's great. If you don't know already if there's anything I can help answer I will do my best to help. If not my fellow comrades will help. Stay away from Mac Daddy though. He breaks every truck they give him. Lol! I'm kidding.

    Hopefully I don't get one after him, hehe! Thanks for the words of encouragement, I'm sure I'll have many questions as things draw near.

    Just curious, is Abilene still primarily a Volvo fleet? That is to say, do they have more Volvo's than any other make? Their website shows mostly Volvo's and a couple freight shakers.

    Won't be ready until next week... Was scheduled for home time in Illinois for a few days so drive home and then drove to Illinois today with my wife... So it's all working out.

    Well, don't ask for a PM until you are within 1k or you will be way too early... :)
     
    tractorman1970 Thanks this.

    Well, someone needs to drive the lemons so y'all can have the good trucks that you drive.

    And, I keep at least one mechanic gainfully employed... Just helping the economy.
     
    5speed and tractorman1970 Thank this.
