    Traffic Harmonization

    Check out this article: Wilson Bridge speed limit may constantly change They call this "traffic harmonization"! You know what this country needs? A complex system of variable, ever-changing speed limit signs so nobody can ever argue with the police about whether they've been speeding. Done!

    Customer LOCK

    Call dispatch and ask what the lock is for. There are several things it could be and you need to know for sure. We have had a lock placed on our truck for an emergency they thought might take place and our truck qualified for helping out. Then they forgot about the lock and left us locked for...

    In need of some guidance

    Hey Sherrilynn, don't give up. Wait for a reply from Cheri as she will be THE most help. She gets busy and may not reply right away but give her some time. Her advice is so valuable and she will be honest with you. Even though many of us have driven for companies for a long time, we won't...

    Favorite stretch of road

    What a great question! I can't remember the road we were on since it has been a couple of weeks but it was a highway through Arkansas (YES ARKANSAS!) but it was not an interstate. It was the most beautiful green mountains with golf courses on both sides of the road. What a beautiful sight! I...

    Layover pay

    I understand about being new at this and needing some information but we will always need to know the company you are leased to and if you are an owner/operator or a driver for an owner AND what you drive will also help us answer any questions. You can add this info to your signature and it...

    More troubles

    So is this one of those things caused by wear/tear or is it possibly caused by the chemicals on the road this past winter? Any ideas? Glad you are okay!

    A Really Great Cup Of Coffee

    This looks wonderful! So you can use any ground coffee, right? Peets coffee is my favorite but I could use most any ground coffee with this? It looks like it was made for the truck and I notice in the video they are using an electric hot water heater thing just like what we already have in...

    South Beach Lunches

    I purchased some South Beach Living lunches for us today and realized I need to be doing more of this. They are great lunches with lots of protein and fiber and they are so much cheaper than buying burgers/fries and/or Subway. They have sandwiches which you put together and heat in the...

    A Threat RE: Pictures at a Casino?

    Hey Broom! Great advice - as always from you and a wonderful reminder for all of us. Sometimes we tend to only look at the present situation or present run and we forget about the entire spreadsheet! Thanks again!

    Hey Cheri, have you ever seen one of these stores: http://www.hamrickshosting.com/hamricks/promotions/5_25_.pdf The store is Hamricks and they are located mostly in Tennessee, North Carolina, and I think some in GA. The promotion add may not have exactly what you want but I'll bet they have...

    Wii Fit

    We just purchased Wii Fit over the weekend. We haven't hooked it up yet but it looks perfect for the truck. Of course you have to be parked to use it but it looks like the perfect exercise thing for a truck. I'll let you know once we have connected it and tried it. My doctor threatened me if...

    How do you get your mail??

    By the way, if you are one of the folks who get your Rx refilled at WalMarts along the way, it is good to know that IF you get one refilled in NY state they will fill it for one month only then you loose all your refills without a call to your doctor. It is a NY state law....not WalMart thing.

    Seat Belt Question

    The annual Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA) Roadcheck inspection blitz will be held June 3-5 this year. The emphasis this year is on seat belt safety so the inspectors will be checking our seat belts as well as our USE of the seat belts. My question is about seat belts in the sleeper...

    Get a fan

    If you have not purchased a small fan yet now is the time to do so. We bought a small fan (not the clip on kind but one that sits on the counter or floor) from WalMart. It is amazing how much it helps keep the air circulating in the sleeper. Our a/c doesn't run nearly as much when the fan...

    Time to grill

    It is time to bring out the grill. We fixed steak on our little grill tonight and it was such a great change. We have one of the little gas grills that fits in our tool box. We put the lift gate down and lit up the grill and grilled those steaks. I fixed potatoes in some foil. I cut them in...

    mileages

    Steve, thanks for mentioning this. We'll keep an eye on it. We use a Garmin GPS and we have noticed that it is off in number of miles quite often. The time is usually correct but the mileage is off. Thanks again for pointing this out. We'll keep an eye on it also.
