Parked Here for the Night

Things one can learn on a Truckers Forum..And so..Nah. I almost asked 'Well,what if ya drink it,what happens then'? But of course I changed my mind.(?)So one cant haul Coca-Cola without a haz endorsement but can haul a load of say Tequila without one??

 

I was 2 hours late but the first drop got off without issue. New problems though. Don't have the hours to take it all the way to Phoenix for the final drop. Well that's what dispatch gets paid to figure out lol!

 

. . . .

 

Spent the night at the last rest area on I 55 north of St. Louis. Was bothered by a lot lizard here years ago. Going to go to OKC today, that's basically the last crossing of our regular lanes to get this one relayed. We shall see.

 

The regen stuff... We had fun with that. Does your trainer have a Freightliner? For us it was a dosing nozzle that was malfunctioning. Not enough pressure to do a full regen, so even though we tried, it never completed one. If it doesn't get fixed soon (based on what happened to us) it will just get worse until you are being towed ... We tried to make it to a shop another state away... Didn't work

Good Luck!

 

So when are you due in Denver? We are about 3 hrs out... Then we D&H and head to CA... We met up w/tangerineGT the other day, be fun to meet up with someone else from the forum too

 

30* in MN this weekend.Better than -40 but still.. My 1-day orientation got postponed till Monday and as I said on a different thread I'm giving up beer till I take off 30lbs..so now I really don't know what to do with myself.Guess I'll just keep posting away here on TTR till I get fitted for one of those carpel tunnel braces..

 

I'm relaying with another driver here in Tulsa, OK. His load delivers in Minooka, IL on Friday evening. Going to book it north to Joplin, reset and take off at 5 am Friday morning. Then deadhead to Indianapolis to pick up a ProTrans load for home. Gonna be a good couple of checks coming up.

 

Good to be home in Sacramento. Gonna do my 34 at home while the truck gets lube service done.
