Dropped my Toledo to Reading PA 12 hours early. Ready for whatever comes next.

Wish more brokers would request what's on the last line here:

Got lucky this afternoon with a DC to Cincinnati load. Big 5# box! Thank you Team CRE! [emoji2]

Well I delivered my Plainfield IN and instantly got a load to Newark NJ. Hadn't even dropped yet and had one Booked back into PA. At the P now in Portersville PA. Been a good solid steady 2 weeks so far. Hope we can keep this going another week. Going to try staying out almost a full 3 weeks...

BOOKED. Dallas to Plainfield IN. Got out before the huge storms move in tonight. [emoji2][emoji2][emoji106][emoji106]

Got unloaded about 08:15. And now I'm at the Pilot in Tyler, TX. It's lonely here!

Good week! Back in service Tuesday afternoon and got a Racine WI to Buford GA. Then an Atlanta GA to Winston Salem NC. Followed by Winston Salem to West Jefferson OH. Breakfast with Sally and Murray and soon had a Middleton OH going to Longview TX. Sitting here now waiting for someone to show up...

Now what would a male truck driver do with all those singles? LOL

Atlanta GA to Winston Salem NC. Only 330 miles but a great rate! [emoji106][emoji106]

I'm back! Went home Wednesday night, back in service this morning. Hooked a sweet one pallet load to Buford, GA. [emoji2]

Not a clue! I'm guessing that now that we all have ABS braking systems that their applying a lot more braking to the rear to avoid the nose dive under heavy braking that we used to see years ago. And using the fronts less aggressively will prolong the life of the front end components. Meaning...

Great idea. Never thought to check Harbor Freight. But, I paid less then $10 for the 4 precut sections that I put on my van. Got them at Walmart.

Rear brake pad pricing for my Transit.

Posting my data sheets at 20K and at 75K for my Transit. Rear brakes are definitely wearing quicker then the fronts. I'll most likely do rear brakes around 100K to avoid the costs of new rotors. But I'll do them in my own driveway for the cost of the pads. Had inspection done yesterday, only...

Yes, Ken. The package states "All DOT/Transport Canada standards for conspicuity tape are met or exceeded".

Run out quickly and by a pos cargo van. Use that as some income until your truck is repaired, then dump the CV again. JMHO

That $5,125 + tax would be a great down payment on a new or used Transit or Promaster, along with the money from selling your current van. JMHO

Hey OVM, took seriously what you told me about my van being too dark at night. Does this look better?

I did the same thing. Did TX, LA, AR, OK, AZ, TX again, MI, then one to TN. In a period of 2 weeks. That's where the roll came to an end! Sat a few days, then went home. Try restarting a new roll Monday.

Did 7 loads in the last 2 weeks, 3 of them wouldn't have fit in your flattop van.
