Calex Express....My New Home!

Thats brutal. Pa been gtting hit pretty hard lately with these crazy storms. Ive seen some bad rain and such around PA in the past years but these storms with twisters lately are getting pretty insane.

Wow that sucks not having enough time to get home with 32 miles to spare. I started off that day in Rochester, went to Buffalo and came back all the way to LI with about 1.5 driving left.

You delivering to the same place on Dell ave?...im guessing you are since we picked up at the same place. I thought they were open at 5am tho...did they tell you otherwise?..cuz im gonna be there pretty early if thats the case. After that i have to shoot to Hillsborough NJ and pick up for Rochester, NY and Cobourg, ONT...what fun...Not.

Great story and pics as always John. That truck sure is looking clean too. Do you know if thier looking for any more guys for the west coast runs or at least east of the rockies runs?..I kinda miss driving out west and those daily miles that you list are the type of thing i want to do most of the time.

 

/////. my day on friday started at the petro went up to fabrikal got my trailer and went to buffalo for 11 am delivery,, got there at 10:45 guy told me have to wait so i decided to split my break there knowing i wouldnt make it all the way home .. my delivery was switched to 3 am tomorrow so they better be open that early... hope to be in they yard around 9 so i will look for you john

 

I am begenning to think it snows year round in WY between Laramie and Cheyenne. I had snow and sleet there myself week before last and it was 34 degrees.

 

Everything is good. Been pretty busy. I usually do 2 west coast turns and then go home for about 6 days. I really like the way Louie and Jason run me and I really like the company in general. I will admit that I am a little worn out trying to take care of that customer in Pottsville. 3.5 days to get there from Oxnard is very difficult to do legally and I got a very disrespectful tongue lashing from Mort on Tuesday. I wasnt expecting that because Mort is the one that I respected the most there. This last trip I had to have my delivery time moved from 5 pm Fri til noon on Saturday because I didnt get loaded til early tuesday morning in Watsonville, Ca. I am currently in Suwanee, Ga for a 7 am delivery then it is off to home for a while.

 

My upper bunk window on the drivers side leaks pretty good when it rains hard you reckon that it is part of the recall as well? Btw I will tell you why I removed my posts when I see you. I dont feel like discussing it here.

 

Speaking of Joplin, the Flying J were we were to meet is virtually non existent now. I passed by there on Thursday and the main building is still standing somewhat but the fuel islands are gone as is the Speedco and the beacon is heavily damaged.
