Running with JCT, Part Deux

Might have to check that out. Did you do it yourself?


Wear bound 80 is now closed at Laramine. Glad I have me a spot.

 

There are a couple of different strategies different ppl use. One I would suggest you COMPLETELY ignore is whatever JCT suggests as they don't have what's best for the driver in mind.

 

Anyone else noticing trips getting shorter but time to complete getting longer? Got a 1400 miler that delivers on Friday....

 

Yep.. 2300 miles I'll be there in the morning appt is Wednesday night

 

This is nothing new this time of year. Customers are usually the ones that set appointments based upon availability. Extra time is also added to compensate for the weather.
This is not always the case tho.

 

Yeah my last load out of CA to IL had a 6 day away delivery date. I dumped it in OK and picked up one heading out to Phoenix. This isn't my first winter rodeo, but it is my first time doing it with super single tires. The tires took the 18 mile 4-6% grade down I-17 like a champ.

With all the snow, ice, and 40mph winds my ride out here was interesting to say the least.

 

Wonder if I could get away with going to OKC with it and drop, under the guise of wanting to take 35 north instead of the 54. It's going to north Platte Walmart.

 

Mother nature is strapping one on this winter....

 

It's your fuel if you can't drop it
