    Tero cards are a rip off... We haul crude and water off the reservation and I hate buying that card every year. Good luck out there!

    i agree, rip off. just like the $1000 frost law permit Williams county did this year. pay 1000 to haul 3/4th load instead of 1/2 a load on gravel roads only.

    well it is the end of the day Friday now and this week has been much better so far.

    nothing has broke so far (knock on wood)

    i have grossed over $1000 in revenue to the truck each day except for monday

    fuel millage has been good.

    now for the bad (or good) depending on how you look at it.
    were working threw the weekend so i don't get to go home this weekend.

    I did have a bit of a scare today on a long hard pull fully loaded all of a sudden i hear a buzzer start going off high temp light is on gauge is reading just above 200 (by about the with of the gauge needle) normally doesn't ever get over 200. dropped a gear and eased off the throttle a bit and the buzzer went off in probably less than 30 seconds. but it sure made my heart skip a beat
     
    speeedy Thanks this.
