    Oh I went up there one time recently they really like that trailer clean. Anyway I got that new guy to orientation only got 3 hours sleep. Iowa 80 took longer yesterday than they said for a Chromebox install told me which made me get that done a little later than I wanted to be done 1 hour turned to 3 hours. Getting overhead done and clutch adjusted. Coolant line for def was leaking as well. Other than that everything else seems going good.

    I saw something cool when I was heading out of Dallas earlier today. I believe it’s a Plymouth Barracuda. Very cool car IMG_2699.jpeg

    I lied.

    On my way up here I realized that I had actually been here once before in a Red Truck. I took the same darn curvy narrow two lane road to get here too.

    Funny thing, leaving BD there is a sign saying that no trucks allowed to turn right out of their facility. Which was the narrow two lane road I came in on… LOL :)

    and yes, they do want them trailers clean, swept, and dusted before dropping them off.

    I may or may not have accidentally left a trailer door open a few weeks ago after I cleaned it out. Thankfully another driver flagged me down before I got too far down I-80. It happens to the best of us

    My newer Lincoln has heated seats and they’re a godsend in cold weather. If it had a heated steering wheel too, then it would be perfect.

    When I take a company car in Fremont during winter, I usually try to get the Impala because it has a heated steering wheel. I can’t remember if the vans have one or not.

    The overhead should help fuel economy as well.
