FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

She’s basically the devil for breaking up Turnpike a few years ago.

 

Headed back out after being home since the 20th. Going to Aurora to grab one to drop in CB then I have a 3 drop going up to MN.

 

i didn’t know there was a Pilot at the Ellabell exit. I thought it was just the Love’s here. It seems like a newly constructed one. It doesn’t show up on satellite or trucker path

 

Thanks for the heads up. It’s not due until Saturday but I’ll be there Friday at some point. Then probably back to the mothership as truck is due for a shop visit.

 

Really? That was a quick build.

 

my appointment isn’t until noon and i had some time to kill so i was gonna shower at the Love’s until i saw a brand new Pilot open across the street

 

Two long loads in a row. After i offload my toys here in Savannah, I’m deadheading up to Columbia to pick up a Mars load going back to Aurora. 2,773 paid miles between these two loads alone, and that includes the empty miles.

And as an added plus, i don’t have to go back through Atlanta again

 

Well i spoke a little bit too soon. I took a closer look ant the load info and apparently the load won’t be ready until tomorrow morning. Oh well, I wouldn’t have been able to get much further than Columbia anyways.

Also SC desperately needs to do something about I-26. There is way too much traffic on it for it to still be only two lanes. The section between I-95 and Columbia is a complete nightmare, at least until you get close to the state capital when it goes to 3 lanes, and i know it’s just as bad going south to Charleston. It’s trading blows with I-81 in VA in the “it should’ve been 3 lanes in each direction 20 years ago” competition

I thought I-95 was pretty bad until i got onto 26

 

What would you guys say the pounds per hole is on the 5th wheel rail on these Freightliners?
