    Why go back to SPRIMO? Those clowns mostly don't have a clue to begin with... and there is the distinct possibility you could do some real damage to the DPF/DOC, etc in the process. TELL RA you need to have it run into a Freightliner or Peterbilt dealership. A big one, that provides 24 hour coverage.

    Hey that's only about 30 miles from me! How often do you get down this way? Are there any other deliveries/pick ups that Prime handles in this area?

    Well, found a real short lease will sign paper's in am as long as shop will fix a couple of issues before I do. Been real interesting 68 people this afternoon for lease side (from this week and last weeks classes). seven available at 1500. Was thinking of going for an ACE Lease anyway so probably custom order my truck next month. Just want to get going so I don't get stuck behind in that queue.

    Sooo... last nite's little fiasco started with the repower guy showing up at 8PM instead of 5PM. Well... ok, kinda figured that would come off something like that, so I didn't start my 14 until late in the afternoon to get to the meet.

    Next... hook onto the trailer, and my right weigh meters are not happy at all. CAT ticket had me at 80200, but even with some fuel burn to get me under max GVW, either the drives or the tandems were going to be a little heavy. Would have helped if the company side had spread that load out in the trailer instead of packing it up front.

    So, with a little creative routing way late in the night, I got to where I needed to be. What a save!

    Sacked out behind the DC, and came up to London OH this afternoon. Guessed right, loading out of Springfield OH in the morning... headin' to way-hot-Messysippi.

    Sounds like an interesting night lol in Chicago heading for Grand Rapids Michigan to drop a load we repowered last night. Picking up in Kalamazoo tommorow then most likely back to California... again.

    Bud Run. Memphis, KC. Headed back to the terminal from there. Oh, and, yes, we run through that part of GA quite a bit. As to specific locations, perhaps someone that hasn't fried as many brain cells as I, can get specific.:biggrin_2556:
     
    Dennis the Menace Thanks this.

We don't see a lot of Prime trucks where we live but we started seeing a good amount in Mass, NH and Maine..I think I started this fiasco by yelling "PRIIIIME" !!! when I saw a truck..so I am on my way home with the wife and 3 kids screaming..PRIME allll the way home..

    After the whole way there! !!
