    Was about 3 inches of slushy snow on US 30 in the area of Kemmerer, WY on Sunday night... And it was coming down in sheets.

    I got a load tomorrow. Unloaded this morning. I'm committing the original sin of idling the truck for AC. So any apocalyptic things happening in the midwest, it's on me. Any requests like in AC/DC "Dirty Deeds" I'll try to swing it by killing a baby seal. I need a new set of water proof mockosins(hehe)

    Since I'm going to jersey for a Monday noon delivery, do I need to fill up before crossing PA border with fuel? I guess I will anyway.

    Yep already back home where it's sunny and warm. The weather guessers were exaggerating a tad. It was throwing a flake or two but eh.

    Maybe. Check the app. I actually hate fueling in Ohio. That's the second worst quality of fuel ( Oregon #1 ).
    AND
    When you deduct the IFTA tax, I think Pennsylvania is much cheaper. The high IFTA tax will go toward what you owe, you may even get a credit.

    UNLIKE
    THE COMMUNIST STATE and their WTF outrageous IFTA tax, you deduct that, get to the actual cost of fuel, it's always 20 to 25 cents more than Arizona.

    We had a steak and baked potato. The OM is pleased.

    That OM. She's booked us out like non stop total trucking freight moving action for a ways. So our home time will be cut a day short so we can 34 at the receiver.
