    11 ran out in Tularosa, NM with 15 minutes left on my 14. My energy is sapped as well. 665 miles so not too bad. Came down the shortcut between Denver and El Paso. I25 to US84 down to I40 where it crosses and connects to NM219 down to US54. Shaves roughly 82 miles off the trip vs taking I25 to I10.

    Made it to the rest area in Jackson MI tonight. 4 miles to my delivery. Delivery is scheduled for 1500 tomorrow, my next load is about 80 miles away and they close at 1600. Dispatch must be drinking again.

    @Rocks My experience with Cincinnatti is always hit or miss. 6:30 is cutting it close to congestion but taking 275 is a viable option as suggested.

    Hmmm. I'm delivering off x158 tomorro morning. Based off the article posted the suggested detour starts before the exit....wonder if it will be open at the 158. Guess I'll find out tomorrow. Lol.

    Delivered in Houston. Got to meet our head boss. Super nice guy. He said Ceva knows who we are. Part of their Elite team. We're their Seal Team 6 but I'd rather be Delta Force.

    Deadhead to Dallas then off to Sacramento. Want to get out of here asap. Humid. Ugh !

    I officially have a black belt in Getting On Ramps thanks to the Dreaded US59. This thing has all kinds. Just call me Master TruckDuo.

    9 mpg on this run:3some: This is you @FatDaddy soon in your Champagne SuperNova !
