Well, the last few days I have ping-ponged into winter storm warnings.
Rolled through Nebraska and Wyoming as the front moved East, then today I rolled down to Missouri and am riding right behind the same front.
I was going to roll into the Memphis area tomorrow afternoon, but the load does not deliver until the day after tomorrow, so I might just park a day and let the weather settle itself tomorrow.
Unfortunately I don't quite have enough time to finish a 34 before I need to roll to be on time.
So, due to weather issues, I am going to ask for the account CSR to see if the receiver will push the appointment back a few hours.
I figure a lot of deliveries that should be delivered tomorrow will not.
We shall see.
Taking the plunge. My journey as an O/O.

Ok,
Truck is now officially paid off..
Cruise governed at 72.
Pedal governed at 75.
Traded in my old 1998 Ford Ranger on a 2020 Ford Transit.
I will no longer feel like I am driving a clown car when driving my personal vehicle.
Did this stuff while on a 34.
In about 2 weeks will roll through again and collect the stuff left in storage and move it all to where I live now.

I’ve left my parking lights on plenty times, while sleeping with Truck off. All LEDs. Just required, no extras. Even with only 3 batteries, even for 8 hrs. Always starts. LEDs, draw very little juice.Farmerbob1 Thanks this.
