Laramie, WY. man I hate this state! Perfect weather coming in from Missouri and I swear as soon as I hit the state line between Nebraska and Wyoming...BOOM....someone turned on the wind! Then of course the snow flurries.....

Have 18 hours to get to Oregon for delivery the 19th at 0900

 

Welcome to trucking! It's like the military...Hurry up and wait

 

Hup:
I haven't driven yet (going to start training next month, I hope), but my boyfriend has been driving for two years and I've heard all the stories. Hurry up and wait. Wait forever so you can get a rush job. Just part of the joy of driving. You just have to hope the goods (for you) outweigh the bad.

tonight theres only one more bad section past laramie, and the rest is clear. man that state is not being very nice right now though is it? i couldnt even see the road for awhile there. i didnt even stop all day i went from slc straight to fort collins, i just wanted out. dropping tomorrow and going home.

 

Sitting just inside Ohio on the 70 this has to be the worlds largest rest area, I swear there are 300 truck spaces here, if you don't like the front row go to the back row don't like facing that way turn into another space and face the other way, I walked up to the building to use thr facilities and it must hae been a half mile, way to go Ohio I like this state already, (scratching his head he asks himself "is this a rep state or dem?")

Lil bit you mean like these ones?:Crane:Laden pick-u

 

i love those FIRMs haha. of course as soon as your 5 minutes late you will never hear the end of it, but either way they will unload you firmly whenever the F they feel like it.

 

Thats funny. Ihad the same thing a few days ago. 6am firm. I show up and had to wait on the street until 7:30 for my actual 8am appt. time. Crap happens. I don't think it's the norm. Only happened to me once. Sitting at Love's in Santa Nella headed home to SFS.

 

Yep, those are the ones! Fun aren't they?

 

Still in Missoula, they just pulled my truck into the shop. A few minor issues, and then... wait for it... NEW DRIVE TIRES!!! WOOOOO-HOOO!!!!! Hopefully I'll get rolling tomorrow.
