    Are Internationals that bad to drive? Looking at a place that has one as an extra.

    Well, the prostars have an annoying tendency to lock the doors when you close them.

    Having had internationals the last 3 days (really, I mean WTF, maybe once in 10 years and now 3 days back to back at different places).....................

    I shall not ##### nearly as much about freightliners

    uncomfortable, stupid ergo's, just annoying trucks (and two of these were literally brand new, under 10k miles)

    Colorado is a scary place today. SCARY SCARY WIND. (and i know wind, i'm here, i've done stupid things (empty doubles in wyoming on a "wind advisory" day. And meh, pay attention it's all good

    not today.
    scary scary scary

    Multiple blowovers. I had 40k in the van and it was still moving around like crazy. lots of road closures, people doing like 20mph on the freeway (really pull over and quit, more dangerous)
    looked like the dust storms

    We had wind issues at the Bay Bridge again yesterday. That crap usually stops at the same time as winter, but winter won’t go away. :biggrin_25510:

    got to move crane parts today. They used a little (huge freaking thing) crane to put down the smaller parts from the bigger tower crane onto flatbeds to mobilize it. I think it gets put together tomorrow. In the middle of downtown. Not so sorry to be missing that one.

    Found this when I went to hook up to my fourth and final trailer of the night. Already two hours behind and now I gotta swing 42 bills.
