Took it easy today, ran 425 miles and stopped in Amarillo about 13:00, heading to flagstaff tomorrow and Hesperia for Wednesday night. Beats sitting at a dock.

Knocked out the miles on this FCFS 950 mile/804 paid miles load with half my 2nd day clock left. Of course Consignee says "FCFS, uh No! Try 06:30 live offload Tomorrow!" So another 7:30 on the 14 an05:30 of available drivetime wasted. The miles differential primarily due to having to detour to my Terminal to pickup permits that they said via qualcomm would be mailed but weren't. 100% unpaid miles. Been having a lot to rant about lately.
tucker Thanks this. -
After my freezing experience in Minnesota I went and bought me a nice Carhartt jacket today. Darn those things are expensive! There was a Gander Mountain next door so I made the mistake of going in to look for the CCW I've been wanting. I wished I hadn't! They had it in stock; Glock36. Man oh man was I glad the sales dude was way on the other end of the massive gun counter. I escaped with out my hide-em but I did keep my $619

I have had my Walls Blizzard Proof jacket & bib-coveralls for several years now and I am impressed with the warmth, was all suited up last week putting chains on at 0430, snow was about a foot in -13 degree weather, just to get out of the Pilot truck stop.....

Any hints on keeping the windshield from icing up? Tried defrost on high, tried floor heat only, didn't have much success either way. Ended up destroying the drivers side wiper trying to get the chunks of ice off. I did find a nice little Kwik Trip/Super Shell off I39 at Plover WI.

Dump 8-12 oz of rubbing alcohol into the washer fluid reservoir, the freeze point is -100 for rubbing alcohol.
