Snackbar is chillin'....at Shaffer

OK here we go again...

Dropped my load, and what a surprise no empties. I take that back, there was one unsealed trailer but once I opened it I saw it still had a few pallets inside.

Overnight sends me over to Unilever off us51 just NE of Memphis and let me tell you ice rain/snow mixture + bobtail do not mix.

Made it to Unilever and when I saw over 10 shaffer trailers all lined up along the fence I felt happy. Until the guard informes me that all them trailers are loaded and the few they aren't are already assigned loads.

So I'm parked at the Walmart in town cause it's the usual trailer shortage thing going on...

 

Wingman definitely is the worst of the collision systems…i had 2015 & 2017 cascadias and the only thing those trucks were in the shop for were pm svcs..most reliable trucks i had driven in recent memory..like any vehicle it’s a luck of the draw because I don’t care what manufacturer name is on it..they all have the same chance at being garbage.

 

That's when I would call dispatch and ask them which one of these 10 loaded trailers do you want me to grab and run with.

 

they do have some nice runs out west from Covington.

@newbietrucker91 there is a customer pretty much attached to the cold storage where we have empties if you’re still around.

 

right behind ya headed a bit south of San Jose with a similar load. Do you know if it’s a good idea coming through Santa Cruz or staying on the 101?

 

Their stupid fuel routing wanted to send me backwards in sparks this morning. Now we’re getting in this sweet Sacramento fuel pushing 5 dollars a gallon

 

Just send form 32 to get a new fuel route
