    I'm enjoying the thread so far Mike. I have seen Gordon trucks in Alabama in the past. And just for future reference, the triangle placement goes like this on a divided highway.

    I remember sitting for hours along that same highway. Blew the top radiator hose, waited 2 hours for Penske to show up, to determine that the hose was special order. Then another 2 hours for the wrecker with the replacement ride. I was farther east.

    I ended up getting new triangles the one closer to the truck was out of sand and kept getting wooshed closer and off its white line.

    Hi guys so back to it, had some issues with work stuff mainly dispatching problems, but I talked to the head boss and it's being taken care of hip hip hurray! So better times ahead, my boss is real good, if it's a legitimate problem and not just whining he will get on it and fix it. So that's about that. Over all been keeping busy on nights so it's good.
