Good night from...

also, will drive back to dc empty since i have to drop off the rollers and soda shells. dm said mite be empty bread shells too

 

got my normal days off, went and did some shopping and got some things I have been needing. Now grilling up a steak and enjoying some beers relaxing.

 

Love's Hutchins, TX. About to leave for Amarillo. Hate night drives but sometimes ya do what ya gotta do.

 

yeah I got used to driving at night doing the target but I realized I do better during the daytime, even going into tighter places with walmart over the weekend I seem to have less trouble getting into spots. Of course being able to see the hole makes a difference lol.

 

If you like plasma, get your new one ASAP. Most have been discontinued, and there are bargains to be had.

 

With me it's all about staying awake and my eyes. The "strobe effect" you get at night (from headlights, worklights, what ever) really does a number on my eyes when I'm tired.

At final in Amarillo. Looks like a 3 hour wait to get unloaded. At this rate I'm gonna make more from detention on this load than the load than the load itself. Only got 5.8 MPG. That's what happens when you go uphill for 400 miles @ 80,000 lbs.

 

nah going to go with a LED this time around, plasmas like to really eat the electricity, I think the label on mine said it used about 375 watts.

 

Back at the hotel again. They thought that all was good this morning. Cummins had them run a data dump and they did not like the results. Fuel and vacuum pressure. More check and they found 2 sensors clogged with carbon. One they had, the other had to be ordered. Now hopefully in the morning.

 

dang squeek how many days you been down now 4 or 5?

 

Howdy everyone!
I've been lurking for awhile and now I'm coming out of the shadows.
currently shut down at a rest area on I-94 yardstick 43 on my way to the twin cities with a follow on load to Memphis, TN.
I posted an introduction if you would like to find out about this mysterious lurker from the shadows you can find it in the swift forum here: http://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/swift/241531-let-me-introduce-myself.html
