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

Wonder what ever happened to Miss T.....

 

I figured I'd finally check my tire pressure,
The drives on the cascadia with the covers on it are impossible to check, maybe I need a magic gauge.
With the tiny mirrors and the fuel filler caps behind the cab, it should get great fuel mileage, but it doesn't. Maybe the tires are too new.
I seem to remember on the Prostar being able to see the trailer tandems in the mirrors while turning to the right, now I have to watch them using the hood mirror.
And almost every time I get out of the drivers seat, the bottom cushion moves to a new setting,
And this opti idle waking me up every time, and the vent in the sleeper that cannot be adjusted from blowing on me without closing completely.

 

Jeld-Wen , Bend Or. ..could be on the ...Tucker Approved. ..list of Crete customers ...there is a bar/with live band...just across the street

 

I'll keep that I mind, looks like the have a DeShutes Brewery in town too.
How was the music ?

 

They only let us drop on Sunday if we have a pickup number to get a load there,
I got a 1,131 miler to Indiana with enough to time to go to the steakhouse
Plus fuel stops at the Pilots for a change, I love the Shower Power

 

For a small bar band...not too bad....a mix of country and 80's rock...didn't go in....but I could hear them good...while taking my 10hr break at Jeld-Wen

 

That's my kind of place, it's ok to post that you went over there and had a hell of a time.
Heck, I'm here gnawing on bull testicles watching a skinny kid try to eat the big steak,

 

I get double points at Love's now. Tiered rewards program FTW!

Now let's see if I can keep it. Have no idea what the new company's fuel program is like. I've been told a lot of TA/Petro and Love's so we'll see.

This driver is daydreaming about his free steak sitting in his mailbox for 21 days....

 

Almost stopped in Indy today to do my physical, my Bol showed an all day delivery tomorrow, but the load info had a small window tomorrow morning.
And knowing our load planners wouldn't lie, I parked closer to the customer and enjoyed my afternoon, yeah Walmart for the new movies, it's Vacation time...
