Normally Hall's in South Plainfield is a really good place, you must've just caught them on an off day. Most of the time if you roll in there mid morning they give you a door right away. I can remember one or two times it was a marathon waiting session though so I guess it happens to the best of us. Port Newark is a decent place to park since that place is crawling with Customs & Border Patrol but you'll be real famimiar with the train schedule by morning!

 

I saw a lot of the wreckage on my trek across Iowa today, guess they weren't BSing about it being bad. I stayed at the Pilot in Burns Harbor, IN last night and we got a good dose of ice but not as bad as other places, but still slicker than snot out. I ran inside to brush my teeth before bed and I about fell and broke my ### just getting out of the truck.

 

60s tonight here in emporia...was in denver and picked up in dodge city....it was in the mid 70s all day but the winds sucked balls....glad I got a loaded trailer cause the trek from colorado with an mt was a fight.... I missed out on the snow in denver but it looks to be hot on my tail....

Have to deliver in stirling il...but I cant find any parking nearby...so it looks like I will spend tomorrow night in davenport...ugg

 

-18 in Fairbault tomorrow night, I'm pretty sure it's an no brainer to idle all night right??

 

There's a t/s in Hillsdale, IL at exit 10 on 88. There was once a little wide spot we used to park at down the street from the DC but that has since gone bye bye.

 

I spoke with recutier forgot to ask her if allowed inverters and how big can anyone help me out

 

I think you can buy up to a 1k watt inverter and they will install it, but buy your own pair of jumper cables for them to connect it.

Yep, i sat over night at the shipper, kinda interesting seeing a bunch of p.a. police, fire, & dhs vehicles roaring up& down tyler street after dark, i think a couple of container haulers decided to trade paint. I could hear jets spooling up their engines on takeoff from newark airport, i was wishing the shipper was a bit closer to there, i get a kick out of seeing those 747,777, and a380's take off and land. I've flown on both of those 7 series, but every time i see that 747 up close at the boarding area, i cant resist shaking my head in amazement that something that huge can get off the ground and stay up there for 14 straight hours or more.

 

Thanks husker I forgot about this place......I have been driving all day in rain...at least I got a free truck wash !

Had some lightning strike right by me in the ditch on my way up 35 to kansas city...my ears rang for about a mile...thankfully it didnt strike the truck.... (I have been in a vehical struck by lightening before..it wasnt pretty)..
