    Delivered in Hanover. Picked up packaging and containers for honey in Lancaster,Pa which I deliver in the morning in Greenwich,Ny. Parked at the beekeeping center I deliver at and I just hope I don't get stung at all tomorrow. After I deliver this I pick up in Ticonderoga,Ny and drop it at Chicago drop yard asap since it don't deliver in Kansas til middle of next week.

    Dropped my load to Kansas at the drop yard in Chicago. Picked up at Uline in Pleasant Prairie,Wi going to Lawrenceville,Ga for as soon as I could get there but I blew a turbo at IN/IL line on I80 so I am broke down for a few days since Volvo can't get me in til tomorrow. Did break down in a good place though because I grew up around here and I have my moms extra car while I am broke down. I had a choice of getting a ride to Morton and driving a loaner but I chose to just wait for my truck. Will be playing poker for a few days hehe.

    Truck out of shop Wednesday afternoon and it cost 3600 to replace the turbo but I am sure glad I did not have to pay for it. Picked up a load at Chicago drop yard and am delivering it in Jersey. Reload a load of Heineken in the morning which I will drop in Chicago yard Saturday morning and get something else.

    Dropped the load of Heineken at Chicago today and picked up a preloaded trailer at Uline in Wisconsin going to Breinigsville,pa for as soon as I get there. I am in disguise though because it is a trailer for Galasso Trucking out of New York so I guess I am getting one of their trailers back to the area they normally run. Once I drop there I pick up a preloaded one going to E. Bridgewater,Ma for asap.

    Is this part of the warranty Risinger offers to lease operators or was it covered by your maintenance account?

    From what I understand from BK2's postings, he pays the company a few cent extra per mile, and the company takes care of all repairs. He came out ahead on the turbo already, as I don't think he could have accumuliated $3600.00 in maintenance funds by now.

    If thats indeed true; would you say thats a fair trade off???? From what I have observed and I think BK mentioned it; he practically rents the truck from them.
