    Serious bad weather in the midwest

    I woke up this morning in Chicago to 70º temperature, rain and wind. Kinda weird temperature wise for the middle of November. I missed the storms but did run into E.O. member billg27.

    Why not get your eyesight tested first, just to be sure? If you can't pass, maybe a corrective lens would help. Your T-300 probably has air brakes and that would require a CDL. Also, many carriers require a CDL regardless of GVWR.

    Turnpike Turnarounds - Possible???

    Turnpike Turnarounds - Possible???

    Has anyone run the Sam Rayburn Tollway without a NTTA transponder. I did a few weeks ago and have yet to get a bill. Maybe they sent it to Panther.

    How Expediting has changed from 20 years ago.

    Some truck stops had rooms. Many Union 76 truck stops had small rooms with a black and white TV and a twin bed. A common bathroom with showers was down the hall. All of this for under $10 a night.

    If you could splurge on anything...

    I'd splurge on gasoline. A whole tank full. 91 octane, super premium, no alcohol. And a pump jockey would dispense it, wash my windshield and give me two pages of green stamps.
