Location for the night

At my North Salt Lake Terminal loading my truck. Going to be staying out 3 weeks at a time amd I don't have the shelf space, top bunk, or under bunk space that I am used to with the Evos at SNI.
I actually have no idea what's going to fit. I think the majority of what I have is clothes. 6 nice western button up shirts. 9 pairs of pants, 3 weeks worth of socks, skivies, teeshirts. 2 coveralls and set of bibs, horrible yellow work jacket, 2 hoodies.
Got 3 weeks of breakfast bars, going to have protein shakes for lunch, no idea for dinners yet.

 

Home. Back to work early in the AM. Gorgeous day here in NJ. Kicking back and watching the boat races in our backyard. Sitting right in front of the starting line and turn 4 with the kids to wrap up the weekend. I forget how fortunate I am sometimes. Hope everyone got to enjoy at least a part of their weekend. Here's some pics for my fellow gear heads.

 

Well, @gentleroger , you were right. No records set. At the pilot in Pacific. Was tracking to be at the pilot on exit 4 in IL with 5 min left on 11, but figured it's not worth the risk of running into traffic in St Louis so I stopped here with 53 min left. Should make for a fun time tomorrow, I need to be in Wisconsin by 930.

 

Home. Back at it in the am. Delivering in Pueblo, then off to Dallas.


Be Safe Out There

Home til Wednesday.

 

I'll be heading out soon so I guess I'll be in the truck.

 

And made it. 29 min past my ETA... I've gotta start telling them that they're crazy when they send me an assignment with an appointment time that only works if I trip plan at 60mph. Granted, the 29 minutes were accumulated by leaving 15 min late this morning and 20 min late yesterday morning...

Oh. I'll be at the pilot just north of the drop yard in Milwaukee tonight. Got a pre to live load and then drop there and I'm down to 2:50 on my 70.

 

I received this reply to my inquiry about AutoSocks (for Trucks) from McGee Company, the U.S. AutoSock distributor. I said I was an OTR trucker, and asked specifically about the AutoSock for Trucks:

"Not all state in the US have chain laws but, the ones that do the AutoSock is approved. We did all of the testing in Colorado and went from there. Nevada, California all the north west states. AutoSock in approved. If you have any questions please let me know."

I will probably buy them just to fulfill the "carry chain" law requirement. I have never used them and do not know how effective they are. I have read you must drive even slower than when using chains...

Most importantly, I have no interest, financial or otherwise, in whether anyone else buys them. I post this to share info with my fellow truckers, not to profit from them.
