Roehl Driver Check In Continued

TA x 171 I-90 Janesville. Dropping in Menomonie tomorrow afternoon, then a PP to White Bear Lake.

 

Anyone know how many team drivers Roehl has? Must be a very small percentage as I can't remember ever seeing one.

 

Usually a married couple thing, or O/O type deal. Not many though.

 

Dropped there this morning not Walmart DC though. Home now.

 

I couldn't give you a decently accurate number, but I've seen at least a dozen teams. May be a small percentage, but they're certainly not rare.

I'm at Madera, CA Pilot for a 34. Taking this TPi feed to Willcox, AZ. (Landstar-brokered load) I should have been farther down the road, but TPi took over 3 hrs to load 19 pallets after I sat waiting for 2 hrs.

Detention pay ain't much, but thank God for it, anyway.

 

You may see more out west as I do believe the teams, at least are sent there more. Van freight anyway. I could be wrong of course.

 

I guess when my pm was done the mechanic put the oil filter in wrong causing it to crush giving me no oil pressure. Went to big island va gp to get a heavy load but since oil pressure was below 20 psi the truck shut down completely 7 times. Thankfully she started back up and I did cause a scene of a accident. Then no service cell reception at shipper called main on landline to get sent to Roanoke va TA for repairs. It got worse within 18 miles of t/s truck shutdown every mile n a half. Good thing 460 has shoulders to pull off reset, start up and do it every mile n a half for 18 miles. Got to TA with 1 min left on my 14. Got repairs grabbed load relay to Dayton then picking up relay to fort Bragg nc. My guess HON good times. She's running like a champ again whew

 

Bayle..i think u and i should team a load to malibu..u can pick it up at chicago railyard and run 1st half and i will run the rockies and cali. We can then do a reset and go surfing in the pacific. We can take my truck..its newer and faster lol...

 

Dang..that musta sucked..good job getting it resolved. I had pm done on my columbia a few weeks ago..they didnt tighten fuel filter and fortunately i ran around the marshfield yard finding an mt because that ended up a nostart.... Then when i tell them it wont start first things they think.are stuff i could have done to screw it up..lmao. they also left the turbo unplugged which gave me the cel. These were just oversights...i think the mechs get pushed to perform.

 

At a J on I-94 Black River Falls, Wis. Maybe the planners read these threads. Got PP'd to go to North Carolina for Tuesday. Nice 1500 mile load. Suppose to be back home Friday sometime, so will be a nice 1500 mile run back towards home afterwards.
