    Is that an Air Fryer? I’ve thought about one but didn’t want to test drive another device and didn’t want yet another thing in my truck taking up space. Got too much stuff in here as it is.

    But if it could replace the microwave, that might be an option. I have an electric kettle for boiling water for coffee and tea so I don’t really use my microwave for hot water at the moment so I wouldn’t miss that aspect with an air fryer.

    Been a minute since I’ve had to pick up a loaded trailer that barely clears the drive tires. That’s all I have to complain about today.

    How long did it take to get it high enough not to ruin your fenders?

    Probably a couple minutes is all. It’s on me for having fenders, but really 95% of the time it’s fine because I run the same size tires as the company trucks. When I got under this one and my bags were inflated the pads were about 6” off the ground.

    Got my oil changed today at TA in Mebane, NC $450 semi-synthetic 10W-30 trying their new Castrol oil. On my way home going to get this APU removed at home and pick up a used tri-pac or carrier somewhere or I might try out One of those portable AC things

    I would recommend the tri-pac over the carrier… The tri-pac it’s much more dependable and the AC on that is exceptional.

    Chafed air lines was always the go-to for the few crooked cops I’ve encountered.

    Dropped in Woodridge, IL this morning after my unneeded 34 and picked up nearby in Romeoville. Made it to Fremont to shower and have my truck serviced in the morning. Then I’ll head down to Lincoln to drop this trailer and then swing by Crete again for another load to Alabama

    At least i have a mostly fresh 70 for the week ahead

    i really wish this truck had more leg room. Can’t really go a whole day in this new one without some sort of leg pain. That’s the reason why i went from my old Freightliner to a 579. I thought this new Freightliner would be different but apparently not
