    I also finally stopped by the I75 Chrome Shop and fell in love. Got a tshirt and some can coolers, no chrome yet though haha.

    If I ever buy my own truck I know where I'm going, I want this if I get a newer Pete

    I saw you, should have talked to you on the radio but wasn't quite sure if it was you or not. You couldn't miss me, old Orange and Blue Freightshaker with Global Tire Recycling on the door and the trailer. I passed you just past the I-4 headed south.

    In Gainesville, got here at 9am and have been moving my equipment over to my new truck.

    Was done at 1330, but then had to have someone in maintenance show me the APU controls, def info, and a few other things then had to sign off a sheet saying I understood it all.


    Now I'm waiting on a load, most likely won't get anything this late on a Friday, I'm gonna wait till 430 then most likely head up to the flying j north of here. I gotta get clothes washed, get fuel, and top off my DEF.

    From a Pete to a KW! Very jealous. Still slip seating on my company but maybe not for long. Could probably end up with a 09' or 10' freightliner. Glad things are going good for you DD. I'm over in Bellmead for the night. Drop and hook here and head back to Palestine.
     
    DrtyDiesel Thanks this.

    Question for LST veterans. What do you guys think, should I start orientation in November or wait until January 2014 based on the freight and the holidays. I almost finished taking care of some things I need to do before orientation. But I am positive about coming to LST
