I'm just crossing my fingers this stuff has a chance to melt, unlike last winter.

Can't miss it from the highway...

Derailed Diner at the Oasis TS in Robertsdale, AL off I-10 is a neat place to stop. The food is pretty darn good, as well. The kitchen is thru the doors of the bus...

NYC DOT - Truck Routing You should be able to find proper routs on here, as well as laws.

Did they include tab collars and polyester pants?

I was tempted to post Adam Sandler's song, Piece of Shat Car; but it has a few f-bombs in it. But dayam, it's funny. :D

401 is notorious for their whiteouts between London and Toronto. 402, pretty much the whole thing is bad for them.

One load my nephew and I got was store paneling, which filled our truck, and was very heavy. It went to Houston during the summer. We were told there would be someone there to unload us... there wasn't. It took us all day, and every bit of strength we had. I believe we got 450 bucks for the hand...
