    Screwed myself so hard getting a relay put in here.
    Should a had it done in st joe or @ a freight yard along the way.

    #12 on board

    I want my old load back !
    Two more stop pays + get my strap back.

    You know there isn't going to be a ###### strap from these other drivers!

    Hanging out in Kmart parking lot. 88cent mt dews !!!
    Better come and get em while they are hot.

    No royals in town....guess its gonna be the casino down the road if no load Sunday.

    Uggg... sitting sucks.

    Paid 2100 miles for week.
    Drove 1860

    Well we're still headed towards Calexico that break down yesterday screwed us alittle by not being able to get as far last night, already got a preplan one that doesnt make sense they want us to dh to Otay Mesa grab a load and bring it back to Calexico to another driver so that he can take the load to where ever it is going, they wanted to know what our ETA would be, called and told them Im not even in Calexico yet by the time I get there Im not gonna have alot of hrs and roundtrip its a 5 hrs trip cant get back until Sunday, they driver that we're picking up the load for is under another load right now and is on his way to Calexico, now we play the waiting game to find out what excatley they want us to do

    1550 miles for the week -- not bad considering it started with a weekend layover and progressed to 3 days in the tractor shop...


    Soooooooo nice to have balanced steer tires, a new armrest, new cab shocks, new batteries, a qualcomm robot lady that not only works but obeys volume commands, & parking brakes capable of holding a loaded trailer on a hill. Doesn't look like I'll get to test out the bunk heater any time soon though (but I'm quite ok with that).

    How do you get new batteries? My pornstar goes on shedding after 7 hours of running the cooler. It's livable but shouldn't it last longer than that? If I tell maint that, I'm sure they will just look at me funny and send me on my way! It's a pain because it wakes me up a couple hours before the alarm. I guess I could just unplug it every night but I like my perishables to remain cold. Am I asking too much? Of course, we are approaching " idle all the time " season too.

    So sick of kc.

    This is gonna be night #3 spent here & I'm like #6 on board ....smh.

    Should a rented a car went home & came back :-/
    My batteries are getting clicky sounding when I wake up. Alarm doesn't work nethier does the shutdown. Buy jumper cables or get a mechanic to lie for you @ a dealer. (Shouldn't be that difficult to bribe)

    Had 3 new ones put in about 4 months ago. Used to run the wine cooler 24/7 and it would hold at 12.7 till the end of break. Now its clicky borderline dead every time.
