    Oh WOW... You live in a single bunk..? :biggrin_2554: That's quite remarkable sir... since you stay in the truck for a long time, correct?
    I always lived in double bunk Freightliners... for 3 to 4 months before taking one week off at a hotel.... But I carried my whole home with me... clothes for any season, enough dry food for 3 months, electric pots, blender, folders and folders with paperwork and records, tools, cooler, miscellaneous, etc, etc, etc... My sleeper was a kitchen, a bedroom, an office, a gym, a bathroom, a living room and even a bathtub sometimes... but not going into that much detail... :rolleyes:

    I’m sick of snow. Made a run for it today. SD was bad. Then got to Nebraska. Snow covering the roads. Not deep. Flying all over. Couldn’t make out where I needed to be on the road. Got tired of it. Stayed with 385 instead of 26 short cut. Went down to Sydney. Caught I80. Caught up on time. Got sick and tired of 45 to 50. Guessing at the road.
    Then when I got to DC. Holy snow! Had giant beach ball size ice build up on landing gear. Had to hammer the door latch open on trailer. Had to hammer landing gear crank loose.
    I’ve had enough of this winter.
     
    Rocks, D.Tibbitt, 650cat425 and 6 others Thank this.

    I put in my app for 10k with the sba. Real easy. SBA.GOV

    Remember. Worst case, it’s a 0.5% loan. Best rate one will ever get on a 10k loan.

    It’s like someone handing you a bag of cash and saying

    “You probably won’t have to pay it back”

    :eek:
