    I've run across a few guys on who were on their phone begging LS for tire repairs like a peasant and wondered the same thing.

    Typically they have no issue with the repair, but I've waited 45 minutes to talk to a human. There was one trailer I had the one set of duals was the most whacked I'd ever seen, and I still have no idea how the tread wore that way lol.

    That one, I ran with it until I could see I was gonna make it easy, Texas to the communist state, and I stopped at the TA in Tonopah when there was no one in the bays to get it taken care of.

    30 minute wait for trailer maintenance. TA won't do anything until authorized. Then the dude at trailer maintenance wanted photos. So they e mailed them photos.

    I got the new tires, but it was about an hour and half circle jerk getting the authorization.

    They had the tires done in 45 minutes.

    Folks at the Local Loves say it usually takes longer to get authorization for the repairs than to do the repairs at most companies. Landstar they sit on hold longer than it takes to do the repairs. They are not fond of Landstar trailer service folks either.

    Well that's not true of the Love's in Coachella. That kid F around with that tire for an hour forty five minutes. Took him 20 minutes to type up the invoice.

    Everything he did he took off a glove and looked and rubbed his hand.

    I think he was looking for the spiders.
     
    06driver and Blu_Ogre Thank this.

    Once again, the HUGE MANATEE is loose at the Peelot in Tolleson.

    I'm behind a JCT truck and have chosen poorly, even though it was basically the only spot and I was funneled into it.

    OH THE HUGE MANATEE!!!!!!!

    They are lease/purchased to JCT. They are entitled to take their 30 under the shade of the fuel island canopy.
