    summer in the rockies, 39 at night, 79 during the day, no moisture to hold the heat when the sun sets. Great weather to sleep, IMHO

    Needed to run the heat just a bit this morning, had to run the a/c this afternoon...almost like a desert climate.

    The last time I used it I was a Creten. There were toll booths between Wildwood and the exit for Orlando...but not sure how much further because that is where I exited. Was told Poly forbids us to run toll roads in TX, FL and CO...Tony said, running it is at your expense, and if it's an automatic charge via pict-o-cam like in TX...they do not allow period since usually the service fee's to track down license plates that aren't in their system are more expensive than the tolls themselves.

    I believe when they re-sell used clothing in the poor neighborhoods it's a thrift store, in the upscale neighborhoods it's called a vintage clothing boutique.

    Just a little word of warning for those who use the txt/sms message system when running a Coyote load...if you have multi-stops...don't msg or abbreviate the word "stop" when msg'g your arrival or departures...likewise, if you're picking up, delivering, or doing a daily update msg, and you're in Montana...don't use the abbreviation MT for the state. This is a computerized system and the computer picks up specific words or abbreviations so when it see's stop (as in arrived stop 1) it thinks you want to stop using the sms system...and if you abbreviate MT...like when I did my morning update msg yesterday in Rocker, MT...it thinks you're empty and takes you out of the system...and once it shows you empty on a load number, they can't put you back in...
     
    jdrentzjr, LilRobWayne and Mev Thank this.
