In bed at the J west of St.Louis. I have a load for tomorrow but my dispatcher is being nice and is gonna try and get me a weekend run!
Welcome September
- Thread starter TeamPaul
- Start date
Dropped the TN load 8.5 hours early
1753 paid miles for 3 runs since Monday afternoon (snuck in a local while shipping was closed) turned down another 500 miler, family awaits
Monsoon in Michigan, accidents on I75 and I94 both, feeling sorry for the Load 1 driver that didn't have Google maps turned on...75 was closed at Dearborn, I followed the GPS and there was a sea of brake lights just past it
Everybody have a good weekend!
Google maps sounds pretty great from what ive heard of it, but does it use data?
Picked up winter jackets, etc at BIL's house, propane tank at younger son's house, then went to oldest son's house for some Grandson Time
Van needed a blower motor switch and other minor fixes. Hallelujah, the sliding door is now quiet!
Now on a nice weekend jaunt to Iowa.
Unloaded this morning in Omaha NE, thought we had a shorty to IL but was 2 6'long pallets soo dry run.
Sitting at J hoping for a great weekend run.

Getting loaded tomorrow Sullivan,MO to London,OH
Yes. Not much, but I've got unlimited North America so I don't care...WIND isn't in the US so I've got no advice here
A very good month indeed.
22,421 loaded miles as a team.
4 days with our feet kicked up at home in the middle of the month.
Ending the month with a restart simply to avoid the frustration of having to refuse great load offers (and load swap confusion) due to lack of driving hours available.
It just doesn't get much better than this.
But.. winter is coming.
This squirrel was fortunate enough to have an opportunity to stockpile his nuts!
Thank you September for a 100% safe, legal, on-time, and thoroughly enjoyable month on the road.
A special thanks to the dispatchers for all that you do!
Let's hope October keeps it rolling!
There's a storm brewing.. Be safe out there.

Yeah I think sprint is the only phone company in the US that offers unlimited data, but their coverage isn't as good as verizions. Ill just have to talk to verizion to see what extra is would cost. Do you run it full time when youre on a load?
On my way north to Detroit. 2345 I pulled into Walton to fuel up with head hanging low. It was low because I knew I was going to be short a tad on 300 gallon goal. Yep 4.321 gallons short. So now 300 gallons to go. Lol

I'd prolly have to have a one sided discussion and splain that moving a little freight allows her to eat and live indoors.

Restart? You mean you're in one of those truck thingies? Sorry dude, you're in the wrong place.
Always, along with podcasts and whatever else my phone is doing behind my back...it reroutes based in traffic, although I wish it would give more time on "found a faster route" option I miss it half the time
I left around 9 am, picked up in Paris, TN and delivered early this morning in Mt Vernon, OH then came home.
What are you talking about ? In the wrong place ?A very good month indeed.

You're in van territory. They'll eat you for lunch here, then pass you in a toilet in a Pilot shower that they got for 15 gallons of fuel. Drive away. Just drive away, as fast as you can. They're everywhere.
