    Yep, runs out of the DC in Lewiston... I always get one of those runs coming off hometime (which ain't too bad since it gives me one more night in my own bed... then I'll get a one-way the next day.

    If you live in or near central/southern Maine you stand a good chance of getting on it if they need somebody & that's your kind of thing... FM up there is a great guy.

    If you're not good at backing up... practice with your trainer until you are good at it... many of the WalMart's in New England at not "supercenters" & are REAL tight getting in & out of... good example is Tewksbury MA... which is under construction... you have to turn around out back while staying mostly on what's left of the pavement, not taking down the fence around the dumpster, the construction trailer, or the large cement post at the edge of the pad.

    You'll spend a good 10 minutes just getting turned around so you can back in... if you read the directions they print up for how to get there it tells you to park out front & walk around back "to see what you're up against" (yes, that's direct quote)

    I get that stop a lot... I think they have it in the computer... "truck #xxxxxx gets Tewksbury... can do it without breaking stuff." :biggrin_25523:

    I havent done one since the first week we took over, but I did 5 nights in a row.

    My favorite was the "do not enter XXXXX city limits before 0500, no truck or noise ordinance from 2200-0500" probably 5 different towns like that, and all of them in MA.
