    lift the bunk
    I pull the louvered cover off by the passenger side cabinet and reach in and slide the filter up.

    Too bad the light doesn't work on that side.

    In the mid - '90's Crete installed Qcomms in the trucks. The drivers were told Crete wouldn't check their logs against the Qcomm...........

    To many people have been claiming that all Crete trucks will have cameras. The message on the QC Media Manager (and what I was personally present for at a meeting in Lincoln) was that currently about 150 trucks have them and they are going to equip less than 10% of the fleet with them by September. The trucks will go to inexperienced drivers and to those drivers who have proven by their driving records (accidents and/or critical events) that they may need "coaching". Nowhere did it say all trucks were going to be equipped.

    Shut down about 100 miles early at the Petro in Joplin. It's sleeting/icing/snowing like a mofo and I'm pretty sure it's just gonna get worse. It went from nothing to wet roads to snow/ice in less than 20 minutes... screw that. I hope the customer doesn't mind me showing up at the end of the delivery window tomorrow night.
