    Why oh why is it, when you have to get up at 0330 to meet an early pickup appointment, do they send 9 important messages at 2330.....

    They don't care about us. But it is our right by law to silence all communication while on a 10.

    Never never never go to the dealer for a PM

    unless you own the truck and are looking for a relationship with said dealer ... That said they made me get my PM done (with a door repair) at Arura CO across from the flyin J near Denver and they were quick and great ....

    Speedo for speed ....T/A for the points & shower on Ultra one card
     
    CMBreen Thanks this.

    www.protread.com


    user login

    login: employee id
    siteid: 200534

    any 2 of the following 5 protreads count as your yearly safety class:

    defensive driving
    space management
    lane change
    hazard awareness
    mounting/dismounting

    If you are on a slow connection, I recommend opening 2 browsers (eg firefox and chrome) so you can do 2 courses at once (doing one while the other is loading). It wont let you open 2 courses at the same time in the same browser...
     
    paul_4lp and CMBreen Thank this.

    Light temp repaired, took 2.5 hours out of my day. I got to greencastle an hour early but only 44 minutes left to get parked. I'm off to Southampton/Philly in the morning, 0400... Then to kutztown, then topton. I got a good load out of topton but I ain't saying! I don't want to jinx it!

    anyone ever been to the customer on James Way in Southampton? The instructions have me making an almost impossible right turn onto a residential street. I276 exit 343, north, make first right on mill road. Almost 180 degrees? I'm thinking north on Easton, right on Blair mill, right on county line, left on James...
