    Ah ok! I think you're the first person I've met on the forum. I would have never guessed! The limited interaction I have from reading your posts here on the Magnum forum painted a different picture in my mind. It's almost as if you're trolling everyone here on the forum. Lol

    You caught me on a less bad day. (I don't have good days, I have bad days and worse days). I got to sit down and discuss things with Matt G the other day, got my point across about my miles sucking, got to meet the owner (in 21 years, only the 2nd company out of the 7 I've worked for where that has happened) and got some free food. Besides, I was getting a bit out of hand on here the last few months and it was causing a bit too much tension, so I eased up a little. I mean, when you manage to get some less positive posts from @Pigbacon aimed your way, you know you've pushed things too far. :yes2557:

    Oh wait, they were serving lemonade with our meals the other day...I hope it wasn't KoolAid...ahhhhhhhhhh :biggrin_1square3:

    On my '16's dash and peoplenet, before my cam replacement 8+. (Actual calculated mpg was a bit lower because the truck ecm doesn't adjust for APU fuel usage). The driver statistics for July were 7.95, I haven't checked lately to see if the Aug. statistics are posted yet.

    After my cam replacement, I am in the mid 7's on the dash & peoplenet. I am hoping it's just down because the cam needs to break in and mpg's will improve because I don't feel any power difference like something is out of adjustment. But I have noticed my gross weight has bumped up a little the last few months too, so that might be some of my mpg drop.

    *edit* I just checked Aug.'s driver statistics, it says I averaged 8.03 (but I only turned 8600ish miles)

    Well ####, I didn't know Zata40 and THE supersnackbar were around the Fargo yard yesterday. I was in and out over there. Rolled in when they were just setting up for lunch but had to deliver to the LTL building. Then I rolled back out to make my last drop just a few miles away. By the time I got back they were putting everything up. I did snag some leftover chips and a muffin when I went in to drop off my paperwork.

    Ive done the paint load from Huron to Fargo now twice. Last time was about 6 weeks ago. Both times I ended up going back to the yard with a single 150 gal tote of paint that nobody claimed. Yesterdays was marked for Hirschfields but they didn't order it so they wouldn't accept it..... I figure next time I pick up at PPG in Huron, the conversation when I'm doing the paperwork should go like this...

    "Did you load any 150 gal totes of paint"
    Yes, there's 1
    "Take it off please"
    But it needs to go to Fargo
    "No it doesnt"
    How do you know?
    "I just know"

    :D
