    Why is it the last load before you dead head home alway seems to take forever to unload ....& no comprenda English here ... 138 mi to the house ...

    You know you've been out way to long when they build a new loves in Nort Fort Myers off I-75 & you are total clueless to it being there !

    Nice one with a Wendy's & a Subway - Should easy up on over crowded Pilot @ luckett rd!

    Paul, they know which loads will take the longest, and I am sure other drivers have been there before. That's the reason we have to put our information on the Qualcomm.

    There happy breen.

    Dang dude here I was thinking I was expert super trucker zooming around the split at effingham.

    Taking 32 around the roundabout flooring 65 in the middle of the road past I 70 going 10 mph...

    Did an angry burnout at my out of business gas station rally's.

    Laughing still from the hilly fun.

    Then decide to stay 70 instead of bypass....wrong!!!!

    Backed up for miles.

    Took me 10 minutes to get from left lane to the random exit.

    Do the jiggle thru the residential area with an od following me (bad idea dude!)

    Get to troy & east (31)

    Take bypass.

    Not my night man....

    Stupid ### construction!!!!

    A daleville Indiana speedy slushie made it all better.

    Got passed by the guy going 75 mph merging back on 69. Guy passed me at il/in state line? How the heck you fall behind me dude :p

    Got a preplan going thru house from Detroit down to haunted franklin ky.

    Wished I would have parked at shipper so I wouldn't start my 14.

    Dangit. No time to stop in or time "the squeeze"
    Loads up at 11pm

    ###### if I go down 65
    ###### if I go down 75

    Both suck donkey ballls.

    Need to find a new route. Ugggggg. Not in the mood after last night.

    Man.... Why am I still in this dock.

    And why do you not have bolt cutters at a business with 3 loading docks?

    They ended up using a saw. ....was a tad. It smokie.

    May just luck out. Out of hours to make preplan.

    1star out of 5 left on their business review.

    Mmmm fruit loops with milk.
