    Wisconsin is hit and miss. Sometimes I get real good loads out of there. Other times its dead. Always be prepared to bounce back to chicago if needed. In other words don't go north of Milwaukee unless it pays good enough to bounce back to Chicago.

    The fuel pump is gear driven on every truck engine I've ever looked at. The only way for it to work is if the engine is spinning over. I don't know what you are hearing, but it ain't the main fuel pump.

    I agree and his directions to shippers are entertaining to say the least. Plus, he always adds " thank you for haulin' my freight ".

    They might be a little unorthodox and but they are always spot on. "Go past the big red church. When you get to the bridge so low no amount of vaseline is gonna let you in, make a left. Customer is on the right. The shipper clerk is a real %$> $ so put your patience hat on."

    Ricky has been the New Orleans agent for as long as I can remember. I think he was the agent in 1989 when I signed on. Back in the day, I probably hauled 100 loads of fiber optic in to Wa and Or. for him at a great rate.

    Ricky has always been a stand up guy.
