    I don't remember if I went all the way to Columbus but I did take 50 over through parkersburg and it was fine. I don't remember anything bad about it and looking at the map it looks like 33 is 4 lane all the way.

    Truck started dying when I got to NY. Loss of power and intermittent cut-out. Think it might be my fuel pump but I wont find out until Monday. I really have good luck with trucks...fml

    It's not bad running that way, last time I was between Athens and Columbus was years ago though, I think most of 33 is 4 lane now, all the way to Athens. and some traffic lights from 270 till you get to about Lancaster, then after that maybe only a couple to Athens, but I do know 50 from Athens to parkersburg is all 4 lane and good running.

    I’ve been staying hotels the past 4 nights. This will not happen again. Pretty piss poor planning of dispatch to only have planned me a load from Cincinnati to Atlanta after doing a 34 hr reset. Do I drove the 600 miles down here just to stay in a hotel again for two more nights. Will not be staying out on the road longer than 1 week ever again. Iys just not worth it as far as I can see.

    Sounds like what I dealt with pretty often. A $900 7 day Check is no good

    Yea, I had a 1900 last week, so will have to wait to see what it is. If it’s a 700 dollar one I will be having a talk with someone. I asked them to route me to Highpoint and they didn’t. I could’ve been home for 4 days instead of living in hotels.

    But I did have to reset on a Friday instead of weekend so it’s just sorta messed up due to that. I understand this. I just seem to make just as much money doing 6-8 days out vs staying out weeks at a time. So from now on I will have hometime scheduled for every 7th day

    If I have hometime I seem to get the better runs and not layover cause they actually pay attention to me to get me home. If no hometime put it in they just don’t pay attention and I get whatever run and sit
