Huntsville, TX. Mac 30 was coming up crap all night and morning. Then sent 2 pplans but only one was actually on me, pu some chemicals and take them 165 miles to Palenstine, declined and next comes 3 offers, all Baytown, 2 going to Ottawa and one for MO, not Harrisonville or Moberly. Took one of the Ottawa ones. I did not want to get anywhere near Harrisonville

Called my DM to confirm there were still mt's at the Ikea and he said yes that he just got an email they want 3 picked up and taken so I left home and when I got to Ikea they refused to let me take a mt claiming they didnt have an extra, called Fontana and they said to drive to the Montebello yard and see if I can find one so after a couple hours of fun traffic I get here to find 3 mt's. First I opened was a mess from hay everywhere so I decided to skip that one since it would probably need a washout, checked a 2nd one and a few pieces of trash everywhere so I connected to it. Called in to get connected and dispatched and I asked if I could sleep here, he told me normally no unless your out of hours so I asked him to point me to a direction close to the shipper I can park in the next hour to shut down for my 10. He replied "dont move the truck I will add a note your out of hours"
At least im only 33 miles from the shipper now, only downside will be the fun traffic in the morning travelling to Van Nuys so will leave at least an extra hour early and if I get there early maybe they might dock me, if not well just hope they let me park somewhere.
Only been to the Munchkin place once a few months ago but I got there 2 minutes into my window.NavigatorWife Thanks this. -
Tonkawa, OK. I am so sick of fighting winds for the last 3 weeks. Even with this light load, can not get above 7mpg. Was sent a pplan, 99 mt miles to Harrisonville, MO, pick up 45K and del for a live unload at 2300 on the 24th, 400 miles away. Nope. Not happening. Going to do something that I do not do often. Here the fuel is $3.49/gal, so going to fill up one tank in the morning, even if the end of the pay week. Was looking at the price in KS, and about .15/gal more, but then fill up in KS when mt. Was going to fill up until I looked at the IFTA taxes.
Sent another pplan, pu same place, again about 45k at 0100 on the 24th and del to Costco on the 24th. Nope. Not going anywhere near Costco close to a weekend. Will deliver that one and get stuck up there until Friday and then another short weekend run before home time. Played this game before and ended up with about 950 miles for 6 days.Last edited: Oct 22, 2013
