    So far yes. Learning a new system, new freight, and new lanes at the same time has it's challenges.

    Biggest real concern is the trailer pool. I've pulled a couple that are getting pretty funky and need some serious shop time. They are DOT compliant just stuff like very stiff landing gear, plywood walls need repair/replace, that kind of stuff.

    Going to look serious at getting my own trailer and eliminate that back ground noise.

    He had a bad day. Customer refused the load and he's having to drag it back to Rock Tenn in Conway, Arkansas.

    Jim's in Buffalo for the night. Dropped my trailer at the receiver and bobtailed here. They didn't have empties there but they promised me they would have it unloaded tonight and I could grab it in the morning if I wanted. So I'm tucked away in a spot a trailer can't get into cause that's how I roll.

    Tomorrow I pickup in Fredonia, NY at 1100 for a drop in Buckner KY....always nice to be able to get almost $2/mi including dh coming out of this area
