What if it Snows?

I stopped by and paid dude for truck, he picked me up a fuel stop while i was in freightliner, then I drove the pete to a fuel stop that never fills up in the gravel overflow lot, it’s not as rough riding as I thought it’d be.
May have to think of a new name.
Still an old M11 so at 65 we were at 1600.

Going back to get it tomorrow.
Fired right up, again, turned key on right side, of steering wheel on dash, pushed the button on left side.
Been a long time since i had to push a button to start.

And it puffed BLACK smoke upon ignition.
then again every shift.

Not enough to choke everyone out behind.
So it’s a bit rich.
I’ll bring it back tomorrow afternoon, first thing planned is changing AC expansion valve in bunk.
then go get pete home.
Then maybe Monday Change oil/fuel filters air filter, needs spot mirror on both sides, driver side has crack in it who knows where RHS is.
then see what tuesday brings.
If nothing looks good to load jump in and see what else i may have found during the PM, maybe change out tires, probably just load a bunch in pickup and take to shop and let a tire guy wrestle with tires, I don’t like changing tires or waxing truck.

 

Sorry to hear. It stuff like that that makes a guy hate trucking... u saved his life and that dumb #### doesn't even realize he was so close to meeting the creator

 

Eventually you get traumatized from numerous near misses and hate trucking. At least that's where I ended up.

 

You left out "dat" I hearby propose that any reference to "old arn" in the WIIS thread be prefaced with the word 'dat'
ie - Dat Old Arn -

I have a toothache and went to dentist this morning. Need a root canal and corresponding crown. Y A Y

 

Or just pull it. Lot cheaper.

 

Dang okiedokie, that's a bummer.

I got traumatized by the owners wanting us few drivers to make "check calls" every 4 hours except between the "days' last call" & " days' first call".
We "forgot" randomly. Company had Tracking on all equipment as well the MACH 1 Freight Company for which we we hauled Air Freight.

I never had any serious Brake Checks, just those dang "czechs".

CHEERS!!

 

I went in May. First time in 4 years. I need

2 root canals
2 crowns
4-6 cavities filled.

Energy drinks eroded my enamel. I drank 1-4 a day for a long time. Can’t tell by my smile. Guess I’m a year away from partial meth mouth???? So mad at myself.

 

Well that's just wonderful eh wat wat.

energy drinks do more than just "erode enamel", they can easily cause HEART PROBLEMS, like uneven Beats per minute, to start with.
A Nephew some years back was drinking 6 of those "monster tall Cans" a day (5 or 6 days a week) working outside and began having Breathing and Heart problems after a month or so. Went To a cardiac specialist and the Doc asked "are you suicidal?", where Nephew said NO or HELL NO.
Doc said "You wanna see your children grow up, STOP drinking that crap".
Nephew quit that crap and regained Health.

I need four front teeth yanked and one molar on left lower, then a front partial constructed.
The recovery from them teeth yanked out outta be "so wunnerful" with probably a 5 or 10 mg "pain ease" scrip, so I'll have to get into some of me Wifes' heavier Valium or related.
I'll just be a bit dopier than I've presented yet I'm sure no one will notice.

CHEERZ!!

 

dat durn old arn.....watt's a feller 2 du....

 

Teeth are probably one of the most overlooked hygiene things when out on the road. There Probably more truckers that don't brush there teeth than ones that do. I try to keep up on it because I don't wanna be one of them drivers that has more fingers then teeth.
