    The bridge looks a little greazy.

    We have stopped at an indigenous source of fried chicken, hot coffee, fuel, and truck repair.

    Trailer has a 3/4 fitting - end of hose that the minus 10 has killed.

    Probably fuel and call it a day here.

    About 20 miles into Iowa some highly trained mega carrier company driver with an orange trailer pulled off the shoulder right into the travel lane.

    The OM was sitting on the dash and was like," Holy Mary Mother of God."

    There were two (2) Volvos doing just under 70 side by side and some old arn a few truck lengths behind them in the hammer lane.

    We were about 1/4 mile behind them off throttle, on Jake brakes.

    The Volvo in the travel lane pushed the Volvo in the hammer lane into the e lane. Old arn was backing down.

    All three went by Schneiser as he was doing 8 mph at this point half way onto the roadway.

    We went by him at about 40, The OM giving him all the hiss, and air horn he could handle.

    Don't know want happens if that's a stretch where there's no road surface to the left of the hammer lane.

    One guy in the median?

    Giant hairball where they just plow the dude?

    He would’ve deserved to have gotten plowed IMHO. Too bad it can’t be done without tearing up your own though.
