Did my D/H this morning grabed an MT flat and headed to the Checkard Flag up the street. about 45 min later i got a load outta SC going back to TX. Doesnt load till tomorrow morning so i came down, got my oil changed, parked. Only drove like 300 something miles, but with this load i should have 3200 miles for the week.
IF i can get loaded quick in the morning, i should be able to make it to the TA about 30-40miles from the receiver on saturday and still get a reset in. Either way I may do a reset just maybe further away...i donno yet, it'll depend on how long it takes to get loaded, if i cant make it there, i'd have to stop short of DALLAS lol so i may have to skip a reset this weekend.
American TruckerWedge Thanks this. -
Also the "Keys Truckers" Jim and Jan McCarter from YouTube, will be going by here later, if they can get loaded quick enough they might stop and say hi if they have time.

I got to meet one of the keys truckers freinds he saw i was here on facebook, and that they were going by so we were hanging out while waiting for them....the never stopped! oh well maybe next time
They guy i met is a O/O on his own authority and was so proud of his accounting and computer skills he took out his lap top and showed me his quickbooks from 1999 to 2011....All i can say is, IF i ever buy a truck i will NOT be pulling a reefer. Dude has grossed $140,000 to $170,000 every year 1999-2011 and only NETS $59,000
And i SAW all the BOL's, he isnt pulling cheap freight NOTHING under $2.00/mile and still only 59k...thats not for me way to much work for little money
But he does have a VERY pretty $70,000 Reefer trailer, ALL Stainless, spread, with dump valves, and tons of lights.
