How is the family?

 

I bet it has 1000 mg sodium. Please stay away from those things. Make a smoothie of two eggs, banana, strawberry, spinach, kayle, carrots, milk, almonds and call it the day

 

Good to hear from you @otterinthewater

 

@otterinthewater - I thought you moved to Florida. Anyway, congratulations for a successful trucking career.

 

Always good to hear that things are right with the world. Think positive and be grateful for your successes.

Snow pack across the mountains is actually a good thing. Drinking water for the future. I’ll take what we can get. Would like to complain about all the snow and the problems with extreme temperatures. Has caused a few problems with equipment. Nothing that can’t be quickly corrected, plus lots of anti gel.

700k is good lifespan. Should be able to get another 150k before things start needing a serious look.
The Volvo is a nice truck. They eat steer tires from what people say. Wouldn’t be in a big hurry to get into something, starting to see the secondary market coming down in price. May find a good deals soon.

Didn't you hear? FMCSA just approved random drug-tests for former truck drivers as a condition for receiving Social Security retirement benefits.
