    Thanks. I ended up staying at the shippers after all this. The welcome center sounds perfect, I haven't seen many legit spots otherwise.
    I noticed a line of trucks parked there when I went by this morning. But when I looked at the Google Earth view it didn't show any truck parking spaces, or even a lot you could get into easily except for the small lot right in front. Their image must be old.

    has everyone been getting good miles lately? i waited forever for a load and when i decided to message dispatch a day later when a load would be available, they send me one immediately. what's up with that?

    I've been fine. Did this happen over the holiday weekend? I never stay out on major holidays because there are never enough loads during those times and I'd rather be home anyway. Major being Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day etc..

    They won't care. I've done it. You can actually take a trailer if you park along the curb in the back. I've not ever done it but I've seen others that have.

    I've been doing average, meaning I've been getting 2500-2800 a week. Not as good as what we were getting before this pandemic, but I can't complain.

    I’ve been doing pretty good considering what’s going on. It does get a little rough in places like Trenton though. My favorite message, “You’re number 10 on the list.” The only thing I don’t like on these Kenworths is that when the jake is on, the brake lights come on. It looks like I’m riding the brakes going down a hill.
