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

Ugh... This driving the night shift is kicking me in the hind quarters.... 9am and it's time for bed.

 

We left Groveport last night. on our way to Las Vegas for 4am Friday. I need a question answered, how does a trailer, that has 8 tires on it, wind up with one outside tire a racing slick while the other 7 are all perfect? I'll never get that hour and a half I lost back while I took care of someone else's responsibility.

 

That's odd... I'm no help on the reason but would be interested to know myself.

 

It's magic!

 

Someone needed a perfect trailer tire to replace their racing slick so they sorta, well, helped themselves.

 

It's labelled completely brain dead. 7 new and 1 ...recycle thrown in explains that.

 

That would mean the crook was safety conscious and put his bad one on after stealing one of yours... somehow I doubt it.

 

If they weren't safety conscious they would have just rolled with the racing slick.

 

Once you solo out...do you have to drive nights or something?

 

You drive what the load calls for. For instance, you get into Richmond at 2pm, dispatch might tell you to take your 10 hour break because at midnight you might have to pick up at one of our big customers in Jarrat Va or Petersburg Va and be in Groveport Ohio at 2pm the next day, hence, drive all night. Been there done that many times.
