    I'm sure Ill have to ask them after you are done with orientation and driving before they put it in. Either way thank you highwayman. I'll be happy if you happy working here.

    Right there with ya Tennessee. But I am stuck in Grand Island waiting on my load right now. Have 11 hours left until Monday night when I start getting any time back from my recap. Right now swift jbs is 10 hours behind on all loads so right now I guess it will not matter if I am late at all drops... LOL

    I'm spending the night in Lamar at the McDonalds. Picking up in Holcomb heading to Sherman, TX. Then it's off to Dallas back to Amarillo delivering Tuesday morning. Looks like I will get to visit Tyson again.

    Well going on 24 hours of waiting for my load at swift jbs. Might get a rest in just by waiting to get the load. Drop dead time was 1900 last night.

    Well I take that back. Got a 34 restart in and still no load. Guess the beef plant here isn't in any hurry. Going to bed guess I'll be requesting 34-38 hours of detention or how ever many hours it takes to get me loaded.

    well guys at this time i think i'm gonna start talking some with the other company who is wanting me to drive for them, i'm really hoping that FRE comes thru , but honestly it's been two weeks and all i keep getting are emails saying all looks good etc... no phone conversations or anything else that has a voice attached to it..i understand that people might be busy and have other things going on but i need something of a more certain answer not just some emails .... so i will speak with the other guys and have them on back up, i need to be somewhere on the 25th to start, if not FRE then it will be with someone else... two weeks, i think i've put my patience in the barrell long enough... i'll let you guys know what happens.... thanks for all of your help with answers etc...

    Only spent 6 hours at Tyson today. No where near your record there Daniel. Hope you got out of there.

    On a side note, is anyone on here in a Cascadia? If so, can you post what options the truck comes with?

    Had a Tyson load going to Laredo from Holcomb last week.They forgotto send the Export Papers with me, I should have caught it. Either way Customer refused it, I had to deliver the next day. Got some Detention/Layover for that deal.


    @Efon, what do you mean as far as options? Seems like the only thing that wasn't standard was the Climacab.
    No Fridge, No built in CB, the Coronado has both.
