    Well got my first week done. Kinda short but still did pretty good. Had fly to TX and get the trk on monday. Then drive to PA. So showed up wed and went to work. Been going ok and the trl pretty easy to operate. Had some long hrs and some snow/ice but no big deal. Think im off for day or two so be going to hotel in a few.

    I'm pretty sure I've run across you quite a few times this week, we were beside each other yesterday I think by the Mcdonald's on Jefferson in Washington. I drive a black 379 tri-axle that says potable water on the tank. I'm not a vac truck like everyone else up here, I run fresh water only. I'll holler at you next time I see you, you're the only red KW running for RKC right? I see their white trucks all the time, but I just started seeing the red KW this week.

    And I meant to ask, are you fracking up at the Cross Creek pad right now off of 844?

    How are the rates on that sand? I hope you keep this thread alive because I always heard how much $$$ sand haulers made when I ran water truck, now im a greasy flatbedder and I make 1/3rd more than I did when I hauled water...guess I didnt realize what else is out there...

    I saw where Dana tank lines was putting on 25 sand drivers out of Neville Island. It seems like there are too many trying to get their hand in the game, in my opinion companies like RKC, Cowboy, and Wayne Sell should be, and should stay the big players in the frac game. You get the Schneiders of the world involved in fracking and I think it just kills everything, this isn't an industry that should be dictated by an electronic log, and it's obvious it didn't work out too well for Schneider up here, just leave it to the guys and the companies that can handle the workload and actually have experience doing it.

    I SAW THAT!!!

    I was at our tankwash in Neville Island the other day doing a drop & hook and saw a bunch of DANA trucks with sand trailers and I was like "WTF?!"

    I know that WW Sell and RAM were doing most of the frac jobs when I was hauling water.
