    This Tyson place in Columbia SC is slow. Appointment was 0630. Check in at 0530 had doors open and in a door at 0730. It is now 0930 and they have just started unloading me. Guess this is a place you come late to but then again there is a line of trucks outside the gate wanting to come in.

    Good luck to day Tyson and Dsis20.

    Ya it is laid back that's for sure. Looks like you already know some hook ups in the office too...lol. Let me know what truck # you get so I can keep a eye out for ya down the road.

    Well getting ready to hit the road. Not to into the electric APU. It is good when it works but can't work for 24 hours with out dieing. Hope the main office take my input and adds the battery jumper knobs to the back of the truck so you can use the reefer for power if needed. Don't have my fridge in the truck yet but think I will wait until I see what they are going to do. Anyways going to Canton GA to pick up at 0300 then off to Davenport IA to drop off.

    That fridge is goin to draw the batteries,and there goes your apu.when it hits 100 deg in a couple months youll be idleing. The electric apus work fair till about 90 and 80 percent humidity.

    Nawsa i neva bin thaya(ga accent) lol. a good friend had an electric apu so i know about em from him,had to hear him gripe about it all summer. Bad thing for him was they wouldnt let him idle truck with optimized idle. He resigned over it,said he wasnt sweating every night to save them some $$.

    Dt, been watchin a show filmed mostly in fort collins called American weed. You seen any filming while you were at home? A lot of it was around the vote to keep the medicine weed legal. Signs all over saying dont let ft collins go to pot,mostly put up by former mayor.
