Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

Sitting at the Pilot in Hesperia, CA. Found out a/c still works....maybe I am getting spoiled in 70 degree weather today- Sshh

 

That restaurant there is pretty good!

 

because I'm on the 10 gig plan, it's $15 a gig if I go over.

I was all gelled up, they changed the filter and pointed a torpedo heater at the tanks for an hour. I didn't drive much that day and took a long break.

 

Yeah, we can drop early at Lewisville, I had like a 2:00 in the morning appt on July 5th. The guard let me drop on the 4th. I bobtailed to Walmart since I was out of hours and grabbed my next load in the morning, at a decent time. There was a great place by walmart to watch the fireworks, you could see 3 different towns.

 

It's weather like this that makes no sense having a truck that doesn't have the option of idling. If that would have happened when you were sleeping and your 'no-idle' heater couldn't stay running with gel'd fuel...they would have had to use ice tongs to get you out of the truck.

 

If you find a company somewheree that provides only accurate information 100 percent of the time, let us know about it please?

 

How do you use 23.6 gigs with 9 days to go before the reset? I have 14 gigs on my plan and only went over a couple of times.

 

My customer didn't want the load today, he really doesn't want it tomorrow either. Now I could have parked at Walmart in Wichita for the night. That's my customer, but , I ran down to the Kansas Star.

 

Hopefully, you will win enough money to retire. Then every day will be Saturday.

 

When I'm rolling, I use either iHeartradio or Slacker to stream music, when I'm parked I wireless tether to either my laptop(once every blue moon), my tablet, or my wifi enabled blue ray player and stream Netflix or Youtube. Just the last day and a half I watched all the Mythbuster episodes I've missed over the last few years...and just before I went home, I caught up on all my episodes of the Top Gear-UK I hadn't seen. Now I have to go thru the Deadliest Catch. I amost forgot...I download pod-casts to listen to when I run into remote areas out west where data service is kinda spotty. Hard to believe I am still turning 10,000+ miles a month. That and I surf the web, use the crap out of google maps and of course...this forum.
