Any guys working long island? 53'?

Well. Software has me running 95s - 695s - 495e - 135s to 27w. Seems simple enough. I appreciate everyone's input, unless anyone has any spectacular stories they wish to tell!

 

Yes make sure you have the money for the toll on you....or the guy with the gun will ask for your license and registration....and you will get it back apon reentering the island lol ask me how i know...

 

I'll assume they take EZPass?

 

135 to 27 shouldnt be a problem, been that way quite a few times to bayshore, levitttown, merrick, just dont get on the parkways.

 

Yep

 

I slept in Mt Vernon at the receiver night before last, not a single issue. Took the gwb both in and out. Leaving, I was into Jersey in under 30 mins.

Edit: Warm fuzzy feeling when a Yonkers cop rolled down his window after I made a particularly hairy RH buttonhook turn, and told me good job, most people hit the pole there. I swung wide onto the uphill turn, rolled the tractor back about 10' to cut it tighter, smoothly.

 

i would look at google earth images of your customer, although long island shouldnt be an issue it helps to know which way is best to get in an out of the customer as far as where their driveway is situated, and maybe have a backup plan if somthing is closed. although i dont think you will have an issue good planning and checking every google image possible is the key to everything going smooth. i tend to over plan but last time i went to brooklyn to an area id never been i was in an out easy peasy, but only because i spent the whole nite before checking every image and street view trying to get an idea of the layout. also i had no help from the customer because they couldnt speak english lol so i would call your customer too. good luck

 

I use Google earth a lot. This spot I'm going looks like it will suck. It's green art plumbing supply on Columbus, Freeport if you want a laugh. I might just have to park on the street and try to unload quick. It's only a pallet. I don't want to pull in and find I can't get out. It's a ####ty spot.

 

and remember all those nitwits that will be honking at you like you are in their way, all they have to do is quit buying stuff and those trucks will vanish, but those entitled eggheads cant seem to undertand that. they are probably just going to a store to complain that what they want isnt there, its probably on the truck they thought was in their way. city life is madness to me but i learned dealing with them is like dealing with mental patients, most of the time u just nod ur head and smile lol

 

sometimes the places you have to park on the street to unload are quicker and easier than having to back into some tight blindside dock. sometimes im glad to see theres no dock, no dock no backing up, just pull up, unload an pull away. maybe lol
