most of my runs have been between 1000 and 1500 miles, they have more miles then you can run, I've never sat more then 1 hour waiting for a load. The equipment is pretty good some of of its old 2004-2010 but they will fix any problems without question or trying to get you to run with somthing illegal.....

So I got those last three stops off without any problems, and had another load before I even finished unloading...


I deadheaded 2 hours to pick up this load, and it delivers monday the 29th in NC lol I have 7 days to go 1300 miles, I think they were trying to get me home for thanksgiving weekend...As much as I appreciate that I asked if I could deliver early and no go since the customer is closed thur-sun for the holiday but she did say to check with dispatch in conover to see if I can drop it and have it repowered on monday morning, so that I can grab another load and keep going. So thats what I'll be doing tomorrow (running to conover asap and hopefully getting a load to run over the weekend.)

Funny story: So I get to my secound customer to day and as I get out of my truck after backing in it was really smokey around my truck I was like WTF, as I look behind the sleeper theres smoke Pouring out of this thing (not sure what it was at the time) and I was like "OH ####" lol. So i'm thinking my sleepers on fire so I open the door so I can pop open the side box to get the fire exstinguisher and there NO smoke in there...... so I thought about it for half and secound and listened and I could hear the bunk heater running......hmmmmmm.... then I looked around back again and finally figured out what that pipe was (that where the smoke was comeing out of) its the Exhaust for the bunk heater . I have read on the forum about somthing with this new diesel causeing the bunk heaters to smoke at startup but I've never been outside my truck when I turned it on lol and it hasn't been working lol

So long story short no fire just me being retarded But it did scare the crap outa me for a secound though lol

I just turned it on again to see if I can get it to work and so far no go, but lots of smoke outside lol
