    Nope. The trucks on both sides of me that were here before me haven’t either. Not many of our trucks have moved. Funny thing, 10883 just pulled up. That was my truck that had the fuel filter issues. Guess they got it fixed.

    Since it seems you guys pretty regularly go 58 in Ca. You might be interested.
    At Four Corners. (that's what locals call it) 395/58. There is a restaurant straight across to the east from Pilot. Inside that restaurant they have a drawing of the 20 mule team. Of course it's US Borax's old 20 mule team. Copies of that are sold at the Borax Museum in Boron. I was so impressed with that drawing. I had to get a copy. You guys might like it.
    After all.... That 20 mule team is the old version of what we do.

    Will have to check it out sometime. Me and Bigcat1124 hit some kind of roadblock up here in Washington. Either the plant ran out of apple juice or something broke down on the line. Long story short...we aren’t the only ones doing a 34 up here. Lol.

    If you sit longer than 48 hrs I think it’s $75 per day. Pretty sure it goes back to the first day. I’ve only had it happen once and that was a month or so ago with that Canada load that had a missing number. I’m not sure what they paid because I don’t see my stubs very often but it was like a $1,300 take home check and only had 2,700 miles on it, so it was good.

    Well, we’re still here. I think Tanker_82 should try and get on the payroll while we’re here. At least there’s food close by and they have a bathroom for us to use. They let you leave as well.
     
    Crusader66 and Tanker_82 Thank this.

    Must be nice to be getting loaded back there. Lol. Looks like getting changed to Ludfords was a good thing.

    It’s crazy. They came and got me and I was like, Really? I guess it was. They still haven’t started on me yet though. I saw another IRT go to the rear after I backed in.
     
    Crusader66 and Tanker_82 Thank this.

    That’s how it goes up here. I’ve showed up before and gotten loaded before other trucks who were already here too.
