    Hopefully they’re insured! Get a brand new unit out of it!

    Do you not insure your truck properly ? My insurance company made me insure mine to the price of a brand new one.

    Darn that Covid-19. Talk about runing a high temperature.
    I guess it is one way to get the company to set them up on a hotel. Not recommended tho
    Better yet! E-logs did it!

    They probably had to tow 20 trucks from the truck stop entrance to get the fire trucks on scene. The illegal parking spots are the FIRST to fill up, not the last. Every half-empty truck stop ALWAYS (24/7) has lazy slobs parked at the entrance and alng the curb while there is still room to park an aircraft carrier in normal parking slots. Lazy never takes a day off.
