    Well I been home for a week, and had the truck repaired and gone over some of my past payments. Counted money I lost. Non payment on one Load, and charged 600.00 for Fuel I did not get.

    Charged for Fuel I did not get, did you hear that right? Yes. 613.00 for 220 gals. I fueled in Vandalia OH and went to Fort Worth TX. By them I fueled again 458 miles away and put 220 gals of fuel for 613.00. That equals 2.0 MPG yet I was getting 5.56MPG before and afterward.

    I'm not holding my breath cause I feel it a lost cause. Just going to take the lost and move on.

    I will be posting them.

    I had planned on Leasing onto Mercer, but their requirements I would not ask anyone to do so I been looking onto other companies. Now since paid some bills and checked out my bank account, I may have to change again what I'll be looking for. Have a guy who was going to sell me a headach rack cheap but My funds say I can not buy. 500.00 left and still need to get an alignment done to the truck.

    I went to check my mail the other day and had a welcome surprise. A Check. So I went on and bought the Headache rack and been approved with Cheetah a division of Great Wide.

    Look as I will be back out on the road soon.
