Hauled this piece of junk from our yard to our new yard. Should have taken it to the scrap metal yard or to the auction.

LOL

I kinda like it. Thats an old school graphic. Back in the late 80's early 90's that was the cats meow. I had a 1984 Camaro Z28 with a similar graphic down the sides.

Ya that would've never happened. I loaded in Kansas City today. I misjudged my potential miles today and only made it to mm 115 in indiana.

We told the broker I'm only 8 ft tall inside. The broker talked to the shipper and everything was supposed to be ok. Well it turns out one item was 8 ft 5 inches in the crate. I ended up sweet talking the shipper into un crating it and it ended up being 7 ft 11 inches. So I still got the load but it ended up taking an hour and a half to load 3 items total weight around 10k lbs and I was on a sleeper split. I Shoulda sat there 45 more minutes but I had my heart set on a shower and not taking a 30.

@Hurst if you're going to look at KW's you really want an areocab. That one posted has a removable sleeper which has a double wall and is like driving a day cab. I have a couple t8's like that with a 42in bunk and while I can drive them I wouldn't want to everyday.

How far north of Baltimore? Tell me exactly where you need to be and I can tell you where the good parking spots are that you wont get hassled. I grew up in DC,.. one of my first jobs was working the shipyards up there in Balt. Did everything from cleaning fish to parking cars.

There is a T/A off O'donnell at I95. It will be pretty full by 7pm,. though if your comfortable doing a 90 between 2 other trucks,.. as most in that area are too afraid,.. you'll get a spot. The only catch is you need to spend $20 inside or pay $20 to park over night.

Close by,.. if you cut out on to O'Donnell and go up the hill where it says no trucks over 3/4 ton,.. (Everyone goes up that hill). Make your first right,.. thats Broening Hwy. Follow that for approx 1.5mi till you get to the port entrance,.. the first one will say no loads,.. the next entrance has a traffic light. Thats Dunhill rd. Youll see a sign that says Free Escorts. On the other side of the RR tracks there is a large concrete lot you can park in,.. plus a few more behind it as well.

Farther north up 95 you have a couple options. Just north of where the T/A is,.. the next exit is for Lombard st. Take that exit,.. turn right at the light and just before the bridge is Ponca St. Turn left and then turn right onto Oldham st. There is a recycling center there,.. you can park on the side of Oldham by the Recycling center there as long as you get up before 8am you should be fine.

A few miles north up 95 is a rest area in the middle,.. Left exit. Like T/A,.. it fills up fast. Depending where you need to be,.. I can probably come up with another dozen places to park.

EDIT:

Just realized you said Belcamp. Jump on 95 N and right there like 1/2 mi up on your left is that rest area/service plaza I was telling you about.

I just found it. I should get there around 6:30 I hope. Won't unload till 8 am so I wanted to be sure and have a toilet nearby. Realized today that worst case scenario I no longer have to poop in a bucket in the truck. I can just climb in the trailer. Now that's livin man.
