    Actually they managed to get it on the trailer and used plenty of tie downs. Must not be their first rodeo, lol!

    Speedy's truck stop at the Arizona New Mexico line. Had 14 minutes left on the clock. 683 miles logged. The most so far since I got this K Whoppin 680. Planned on stopping in Gallup but I knew this place always have parking and I like to knock out 3 states. Ok,Tx, and NM. All in a days work. 600 miles to receiver. Doesn't look like there's legal parking so probably will stop in Barstow, and finish the rest off after my 10hr break. Then I head to San Diego to pick up Bananas going to Farr West UT. Time for some shut eye. We back quiet.

    Who do you work for? I'm looking at a few companies, DLM in Sunnyside, WA, Haney in Yakima, a few others. Trying to be home more and I'm tired of being micromanaged to death.

    Yeah I'm not sure. They do have a Western Regional, and I have taken a load up from a dedicated customer we have in Sacramento to Spokane. Not sure how often we deliver to that place a week, but that probably would be the load that would get you home. Last few times I have been up that way. I picked up in Kennewick area wine and potatoes. Not sure how the regional stuff works though.

    At the love's in Weatherford, TX. I was shocked that there were still spots here. Usually I fuel up and go down the road to the Petro.
