    I hate being told to be somewhere at a certain time and then find out after I get there that I had all morning and most of the afternoon to get there. Why lie to me about something so minor?

    Spartanburg sc...deadheading to Montezuma Ga after this. Which means I'm probably gonna be picking up in Leesburg Ga unless I'm picking up a load off the drop yard. Haven't been to either one in a while. If you're ever in Montezuma there's a huddle house and a Harvey's grocery store about a mile away. Drop yard has its own tank wash in case you get there and need a clean tank.

    When going to Montezuma from i75 if you take exit 127 going west there is an Amish restaurant/bakery before you get there on the left. Amazing baked goods.

    Didn't know about that place. I always take exit 135. Hwy 127 to 224 which dead ends at hwy 26. Once it dead ends, instead of taking a left to go to the drop yard you just go straight at the intersection. It's faster.

    You can leave drop yard go east maybe 2 miles will be on right. Before you get to it on left is an Amish meat shop called Yoder's good sausage. He only make it a couple of days a week and runs out fast. It is also a slaught house, worth a stop also.

    You got that right. Those are Mennonites and they know how to cook.
    Been meaning to ask: How do you get and IRT truck with the giant Indian head on the side?

    I was told its "luck of the draw" if you get one with an Indian Head then you get one, if not then you don't

    I was told its 2014 Models that have it, I drive a 2014 and it doesn't have one, so who knows (then again i've never seen an International with an Indian Head on it)

    Headed to Borden in North Charleston tomorrow for a load of some kind of something going to Ken's Foods in McDonough Ga. I've done this load before but don't remember what the product is. Buttermilk?
