    dropped in Laredo now almost to Oxnard. 28k in the box. allowed me to get 9.17 MPG. on this load we spent exactly 21.00 more than the fuel surcharge and will still have enough to get out of California. the lighter load and flatter roads helped.

    Snow story was crazy man. Glad that worked out for you.

    You think you're gonna stay with your trainer for good or go on your own in the future?

    I should be in for upgrade the 28th or week after. he made it worth my while to stay out an extra month but I gotta start working towards my goals. Plus I wanted some snow. Might get more but It was good he was beside me when it happened and was able to assure me and safety I did it all correct and I avoided what I could and made it as good a situation as I could. It helped that the lady that spun out called in and thanked prime for having drivers that were safe. I believe her insurance is paying for the fuel tank.

    But yes I will be solo no later than the second week of dec. glad it is going well for you. If I don't lease I'm man enough to drive the pink truck
