    Yes they have a couple XL in with new rebuilt engines. But he is looking at the Columbian now too since they are not single axle. They drove smoother than the single axel at his other job. He spent lots of time teaming and single driving in those. He likes the ride of the duel axel alot better.

    Lots of swapping and going the next two days as I prepare for my first infusion treatment on Friday morning.
    Company is keeping me close with lower mile swap and drops, but to make up for it, I'm getting an hourly wage on top of it.

    It is nice that they are working with you. You could be leased with some carrier that would just say let us know when you are able to come back to work.

    Hope all goes well with the infusion.

    Ran into @Itz_Art at steelCase today. Always nice to see a shiny truck! (Unlike my dull unkept looking one)
    I'm at the drop yard near Detroit swapping for a load back to Lansing.

    We are still here in GR. Hubby's truck going to shop for software upload. Then we're off for home. They have him hauling stadium seating. That's a change.
