    You will find FFE will tell you to take your breaks some where other than behind the steering wheel. The problem with doing something other than driving is that subconciously you are telling your self that it is ok to do things other than driving.. The drivers seat is only for driving. Want to watch a movie? Want to take a nap? Want to eat? Want to pick your nose? Do it either in the passenger seat or the sleeper.

    Actually gonna be Stevens not FFE. But yeah. Behind the steering wheel is only driving. I'll figure out my own set up for R&R in the truck once I get assigned my own. FFE recruiter dropped the ball and lost me. Stevens recruiter was a "getter done" type and got it done. lol

    Not only that but it helps when ur tarping or tying down it doesnt go against the 8 clock. Sometimes i would log 2 hrs if i was tarping then go off duty for the last 30 mins so i could have a full 8 clock. Dont have to do that anymore.

    After unloading, and parking and another 16 hour day, I guess I was tired.

    I always lay my clothes out the night before, this morning I couldn’t find my socks.
    Found them at the foot of the bed, after I got another pair out.

    But the moral of this story, by making the bed, I accomplished two tasks already.
    1.) Bed Made.
    2.)Recovered list items.

    So 311 miles in, stopped for fuel and to piss ( The OM is like, " You didn't think about that did you?), and the codes have cleared again.

    The OM is like, " All you gotta do is be willing to take it to the max."

    I think the many Our Father's and Hail Mary's have helped more than The OM'S tude.

    Whole front of the truck and the whole front of the engine.

    The gasket design is f/u. It's like really?

    Think the gasket is $150. It's about $1200 in parts, other gaskets, etc. The oil pan gasket is almost $300.
