    We get up that way quite a bit. There are a number of shippers up that way (you don't want a tree load) including some flower warehouses and I think a couple of seafood processors. Plus, we pull loads up to Blaine so some poor soul can pull it across to that other country.

    The cascadia lightweigt is not bad, I had a 2012. Was a great truck, I put the 1st 40k on it and had no issues. With the back cabinets you have as much storage as a condo

    U2 i have noticed your home location and being that you run in the west a lot from reading what's your 20 thread you live more in the west coast than the east am i correct? Reason being i was wondering if some one lives on the eastcoast will they be able to run the west if they wanted to?

    Shouldn't be a problem. I "nominally" live in Denver, but usually run more east coast than anywhere else. Just let your FM know what your preference is.

    T-14 hours, and my adventure begins. Guess I should start packing. 1 large duffel bag with sleeeping bag stuffed inside, and a backpack with my paperwork, laptop, and anything else i can shove in there.

    Well, Im finally here, checked into campus inn. Got here when it was dark, so not much to really say about it yet. Got stuck with a PSD student waiting on a trainer. (guy needs to wash his socks, room stinks like a dead animal). Ill post more tomorrow after I visit the Prime facility.
