FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

..

 

Automatic and a spread axel trailer...don't know how they do it. I can hear tires popping.

 

I’m glad i went out to my truck this morning when i did. Apparently the inverter got turned off at some point and cut the power to the fridge. Had to pitch all my food and i’m letting it air out before i clean it and put fresh food back in. By the state of the old food and smell, it had been off for at least a couple days

 

Hope they get ya rolling soon. At least ya had a good week goin. Hell, I'd settle for an average one, can't remember my last good one. Don't have a lot more of these weeks left in me

 

Not sure where I left off on the Travelogue. Anyhow, got a broker load from Hazelwood, MO to Lincoln, NE. Then I picked up a Mars load at the droplot in Lincoln and swung through Fremont to swap into a loaner so my truck can go to the body shop. The loaner is a 2021 Midroof with just over half a million miles and a Million mile safe driver sticker. So me and 'Stolen Valor' ran the load down to Columbia then picked a load of mulch in Walterboro, SC (incredibly nice folks) that I am delivering to Sioux Center, IA tomorrow morning Lord willing and the creek don't rise. Barely squeezed a reset in at Woodhull, Illinois. I "wasted" 15 hours on my old 70 but this will hopefully let me get a little more than 2600 miles on this check.
In total I got 3 days of breakdown pay and one day of layover pay for being broke down from Wednesday night to Saturday morning and then waiting for a load. Had the first mistake on a check, my hotel didn't get reimbursed but I did get a reimbursement for a scale and washer fluid that another driver had purchased. It was figured out within an hour after I messaged and called dispatch (our settlements person was out of the office Monday). I had a call from the person covering settlements within an hour explaining how they are going to make it right. I'm not upset, waiting a week for $70 isn't going to break me and this is the first mistake in a year which considering all the moving parts in this operation, ain't bad.

 

Make sure the vent hole is clear in the rubber plug of the hubcap?

 

It all is a bit interesting, timing etc, that’s for sure.

 

That comes with the Deluxe model. Don’t be so cheap next time.
