    Doing great Tomcat! Thanks Driver.
    Unloaded in Indy yesterday and was back on the yard by lunch today.
    I load out tomorrow afternoon for Cincinnati....Should be back Thursday night and done for the week.

    The company is treating me great. They ask when I want to get loaded and let me run any way I want.
    I ran the truck to the tire shop Saturday...only about 3 miles away and they paid me 75 bucks for about an hour of my time...The boss said they don't make us do anything for free.

    Got to the office today and they had me a few Walmart bags of goodies for the truck too....lol!

    ^^^ Sounds awesome, EZ !~ You really got the "cream of the crop," man. So did I. (My tanks aren't as pretty as yours or @Cat sdp 's, LoL.) At least I've got "bank" and a Pete!!!
    Keep up the good work, man. That's too darn good of a gig to lose, it sounds like. Keep us posted :) and be safe, fellow driver!

    He's local P&D is why. You can only do physical work for so long. Also these guys have a lot of stress go, go, go. Great pay but can be back breaking and stressful trying to make appointments. Driving and Hooking a hose up and being home daily is easier then P&D city work. I'm sure Linehaul is out of the question cause ABF does layover runs.
