Heading For Little Rock! Maverick

I got a DD13 n i like the way it pulls and the mpg. Pulling a TC I am averaging 7.5 mpg. But I take the truck back to Lil Rock n get a trainer truck. Maybe I will get a DD13, but the DD15 got good mpgs

 

New truck number is 14049.

 

ExHawkeye you gonna be a TCD Trainer?? Cool! I know we need 'em.

 

Yep, gonna be a trainer. I heard 2 others are going to be trainers that I know. They just had some new trainers go through the MIT course about a month ago or so.

 

The mirrors are different....any better at staying dry/clean?

 

They have a strip running down the side that deflects the water. No more spotted mirrors when you use the sprayer to clean the window while moving. A small thing but nice

 

Are they detachable?? And, where are you gonna be parked next??

 

They don't appear to be able to come off. Dropping off at Stevens Industries in Teutopolis, IL in about 50 mins. not sure after that. Hopefully heading south toward NC

I'm still out of the truck as he just got the APU fixed wed night. They took one off another truck and put it on this one. Now I can get back in and we won't roast at night in that twin bed. It really helps when we go some place I'm not suppose to be if you know what I meanBeen there done that last summer with no APU on the '07. Don't want to go through that again. This is the longest I've been out of the truck since he started driving and it's driving me crazier!

 

well after bring out for two weeks got home yesterday. Just call me a short-haul express. Did five loads that were all between 350 to 400 miles. Wasn't bad at all still ended up with decent pay for the week.

Ran into Jim down in South Carolina. It was nice to see him in person again.

Scheduled to load up Saturday to go down to Fort Worth Texas that's a nice thousand mile run.

Have a great weekend, drive safe and enjoy the ride.
