My TMC experience.

Been rolling with my trainer since Sunday he picked me up from Des Moines. Been knocking out 550 miles a day, guys awesome we listen to howard stern most the day. Dropped off a steel coil in Nebraska picked up at a lowes distribution center and just parked at a lowes store in Wisconsin for the night. So far no complaints on tmc. We don't do much backing but maybe that's flatbed in general but we don't park at truck stops rest stops unless we're fueling

 

Just buy a nice 12 volt fan to have blowing on you at night, it works great! I hated to idle in hot or cold! It would be 20* and I would be that guy who never would idle!

 

Minneapolis Owens Corning is my favorite. Wake up at 0345, unloaded by 0415, reloaded by 0430, strap and on the way. Easy money. Sounds like you boys are doing well though. And snow, you'll see that being a good backer pays...when you have to back into 104" holes. It's a real joy.

 

Yeah, if you think about it, that's where we live. It's like walking in your front door of the house. I think most trainers are that way.

 

I never wore shoes in my sleeper. I also had a pair of nice slippers I wore while driving, I have only worn them while driving a truck. I also would vacuum my truck almost everyday with my little battery vacuum I kept with me. I was analysis about that!

 

Shingles are nice aren't they? And the Owens corning In MN is great! During driver appreciation week, they have burgers and hot dogs coffee and donuts for drivers that come in and load or off load there. Really nice place!
