    OH I forgot

    Wayne when I talked to you awhile back you told me you were going to straighten PHARM out!! What snell happend???:biggrin_2551:

    Have my FMCSA Safety Audit this Saturday. They dont look at the vehicles though, thank good I got 3 drive tires at or below 2/32!! and another cracked brake shoe, got the other one fixed last week. trailer is up to par with 6 new tires (caps are 175 with casing trade!), 4 new shocks (put in myself), and a couple of repaired air lines (fixed myself).

    I will post how it went. The inspector told me it is for "informative and learning purposes only" Well see how that goes!!!

    good luck on the audit.it shouldn't be too bad.its really more of an educational thing,so you know what you are required to keep up with. its the compliance reviews that can get you. that is where they check your logs & fuel reciepts,maintenance records,drug testing, al that good stuff. they aren't too bad as long as you have everything. i have been through 3 of them in the last4 years. good luck,let us know how it comes out.
