    We must not have many Great Dane trailers. Here in Aurora and I'm picking up the only one in the lot. Vast majority I've pulled are Utility's or Stoughton's, with a couple Wabash trailers.

    Nothing like getting woken up to your truck being knocked on a little before 6 am and then seeing nobody in the yard. I even walked to the front. Besides for a couple guys doing pretrips it was quiet. Granted it took me a couple minutes for my brain to register the fact and getting up. Oh well, I needed to be up anyways. Can't leave until 10 though.

    Left Tucamcari about midnight, once into Kansas the wind started blowing, steady 35/40 mph gusts up to 50. Sucks when you are fairly light. As I approached Nebraska the freezing rain and snow started.

    Made it Kearney, dropped and bounced up to Broken Bow to pick up a preloaded trailer going to Four Oaks, Nc for Sunday or Monday.

    Do we go to B/D in Sumter, Sc anymore? I use to pick up and deliver out of there on the regular since I live in Sc, but haven’t been there since I came back.

    Dropped my load in Plano, IL earlier and went up to Libertyville to pick up a single skid of product. 366 pounds. I will be dropping this off in the Council Bluffs yard tomorrow morning.

    Are the shops in Fremont or Council Bluffs open during the weekend? My truck is due for service and I'd like to get it done before I go home for hometime.

    I don't think my truck will be legal with this kind of weight. Do y'all think that I should scale this out just to be on the safe side? 20230317_151736.jpg
