30K is just the grease and filter service. They will at least change your fuel filter. That can be done at any truck stop that does maintance, just get prior approval from the shop in Fargo.

 

Finally got to check out one of those 579s with the 80" sleeper at my local dealer. I'm not sure what trim level the seats were but they sure were comfortable!

Any of you guys figure out a way to put a shelf in the wardrobe closet above the frig? It's a shame Pete didn't put an adjustable shelf in that closet.

 

See a Magnum Tractor and trailer parked every 3-4 weeks in Washington Court House, Ohio for the weekend! Any taker's on whose rig that is. Didn't get the truck number. Sweet looking Pete!! Tails on back of trailer!

 

Enjoy reading this thread!! Thanks!

 

Sitting at the flying hook in Dallas about 2 miles from my first delivery. I have 4 stops to kick off tomorrow, all within about a 20 mile radius. I'm reloading tomorrow afternoon at Pepsi in Grand Prairie going to Denver for Friday morning. No grass growing under these feet.

 

Man I love this job. That's all for now.

 

Im sitting at Mclane in Concord NC waiting till my Thursday 0200 appointment... then Ill drop my MT in Greensboro at our yard and head home... Between some plans for the Holiday and a dentist appointment....Im taking off till Wednesday next week.... yeeee haw!!

oh.... and just a point of info....
I have been out 3 weeks...got about 8500 miles ....had a 34 hr reset, got $180 in extra drop pay and 3× got detention. Once for an hr and once for 1 3/4 hr and once for 45 minutes...and I won $119.75 in an Indian Casino in Kansas..... . AND I took a shower every single day of the three weeks....

 

Had all of my stops off by 1000 this morning, went and had the trailer washed out, and was sitting at Pepsi at noon. My appt was for 1500, but I was loaded and rolling out of the gate by 1500. I'm sitting at the J in Wichita Falls, I have 650 miles to go tomorrow for a 0530 on Friday.

 

How often do you guys need to get a washout? Doesn't seem like it's too often, what did you haul RM that needed a washout?

I remember the days of hauling meat and needing a washout after every load, sucked because you never got paid for your time.

 

Not very often, I had a load of eggs. Pepsi required a washed out trailer, it might have added 20 minutes to my day. Whenever we pick up a beer load out of Ft. Collins we have to get a washout.
