Instant O/O and Loadboards II

No, the Bankhead tunnel is off the last exit before you get to the tunnel on I-10... And you definitely wouldn't get a condo through it without a major haircut.

 

Uhhhhhh.... on second thought ......

 

Aaahh, ok. Scared me there for a minute.

 

pice of cake,droped it off out side the gate ,last night at 8,30 pm they tryed to call this morning i didnt anser after i got my new phone and like the man told me when i started out to go sign on 90 days ago,,,f--- me and f---- my money invested,it was all about him so i turned the tables no money for him and take your truck and shove it and dont ever call me again!!!! real simple,after what you have read in past post its not like i didnt try,i gave it my best shot i made some money and survived,if the rates had been better i still would have turned the truck in just to screw him back and bought another,,,,,,like i said, i might not be able to type worth a #### ,but i try and help people as long as they work with me not against me,and i dont play games,so bottom line is i kept his truck for 90 days did what i had to do and moveing on,,,just the funeral was fast and swift,,,,,,,,THE DEATH OF A 20 YR FREINDSHIP,,,,, i didnt even hang out for the wake ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

 

I think the tunnel they came up on was the Bankhead on 98, not the one on I10.

 

I'll chew a while.......If you can't or even worse won't read a map and are going to insist on relying "ON THE BOX"...........QUIT...........NOW.


You left out one of the most important parts of this deal we call truck driving.......trip planning.


What happens if and when the "Wonder Box".....quits working.??????


Makes me wonder how we ever delivered a load of freight before the invention of these "BOXES"........................

 

Most don't even care for the box it can't shut up. 10 miles to yadda yadda street.

 

There's two tunnels. The one "on" I-10 has plenty of clearance. The one, Bankhead Tunnel (the old two lane tunnel), you have to take Exit 27 from the Westbound side and cross over Hwy 90. It takes you into the downtown business district. There is no entrance Eastbound to Bankhead on I-10. Government Street runs East into it. I-10 tunnel is something else. You'd have killed your condo with the safety stops before you got into Bankhead which is what they hit........apparently.

 

Seems to be a common theme on the GPS, and I fully agree with all of you. I've got a sore spot with Atlases right now - I own 2 of the 2009 lam. and I have none at the moment - long story. Short version - I loaned them to someone "short term" about 6 months ago and have been trying to ask nicely (about 5 times so far) for their return. They did go down in price for the 2010 issue ($30?!), and I'm dying without one, but I'm a stubborn man and I refuse to buy something I should have in my hand. To a fault? YES!

Now, just to ask a question, can anyone find the page that shows the "ridiculously low-hanging, illegal" traffic signals? It would've been terrific information. To be totally honest, I find it really difficult to find proper place and time for food and facility stops that never occurred in order to make the logs jive WITHOUT an atlas - UH OH! who released the wolves?!
