    Ya you said he hurried up and buttoned up and hauled ### out of there. obviously was not innocently emptying his grey water tank. I was just speaking up in case you didn't know the sink and shower water go to different tanks. Heck I'm not even gonna put a tank in with my shower/sink, just gonna let it run straight to the ground.

    Back to the drawing board again. I had freight on me through Monday, nice and easy, but on my way out of MI today they had 75 shutdown due to a crazed man with a gun that police were trying to negotiate out of the vehicle. Diverting all that traffic on 75 off a little two lane road and putting us all on 24 south. It took me several hours to go 20 miles into OH. Missed my delivery, now delivers tomorrow, and messed everything. Spent the last hour and a half rebuilding my weekend. Booked up through late night Monday now for good money. Took lots of phone calls. Nobody wants to pay on the freight here. Lots of cheap rates.

    Goodluck! Just make sure you keep your truck maintained when it requires because it will do wonders if you stay up to date with it. Drive safe :)

    You don't mind TQL? No bad experiences yet?

    My cousin used to dispatch for a small company that used TQL all the time. He liked them.
