I Had this happen over the weekend. A local job in my old field came open on the shift I wanted. I can say I was more then tempted and had intended to apply today. But then reality finally set in as I remembered why I left the rat race in the first place and what I would be giving up. It's very...

So very sad :(

I guess that also explains why I was recently called twice about a min. apart for the same load. Hey January... buh bye :p

Is it still a dry run if it's raining :confused:

Jeremy got me set up for a nice load coming back to Detroit this morning. Kind of felt like old times, mentally waving to 4 other branded vehicals as I left :p

That's cool. I was just thinking, I've lived in michigan my whole life and I've never been there. I've been up to the bridge, but that's it. Maybe some day :)

I don't have air ride or anything in my sprinter. But after coming off of driving straight trucks, I was amazed at how far I could drive a sprinter without feeling exhausted. There is also a lot greater mental exhaustion involved with a straight truck that should not be discounted imo. And like...

"The force is strong with this one” Thanks Yoda :)

Oh yeah, got out on Monday with a load back to Detroit in time for the freeze bowl :)

lol, I was too cold to notice.

FYI- Anyone planning on filling up at the Pilot near port huron, MI. As of this time, the Diesel pumps are still freezing up, it will be hit or miss. :(

Well that was one bleeping cold night. After i dropped off in Detroit and reached home around 3am the temp for -1f. Kinda funny when i crossed into Michigan I looked at my gages and saw next to "D" the number "4", I thought at first i bumped the gear shifter into 4th, then realized that was the...

Ro Ro Ro-a-noke, waiting for a load.... Had 4 nice strikes yesterday since I got here but couldn't set the hook. My first teaser load for the year, a trip to Las Vegas Oh how I wanted that one :cool: Then a consolation trip to the yard. But here I sit re-baiting the hook :)

I wish there was a way to send messages from fleet vision like in-service and position checks when home instead of having to go outside and boot up the QC everytime :p

Interesting to think back. For myself I would have to go #1 with the advancements of GPS. I still am amazed how I ever found a destination without it, and don't miss my brief case filled with maps. Followed by in-cab scanning of paperwork and Ez-pass has made life much easier. Oh yeah and that...

Wire corrosion. Cutting and splicing about 12 wires.

Quite in here. In Grand Rapids. Van service should be completed soon and ready to start 2013 :)

Was ready to start on Monday, but i guess my van had other plans. After washing it, I now have a short or something with the dash board and marker lights. Keeps blowing the fuse. I can't figure it out, so it looks like my first run of the new year will be to the service center. Unless it...

When I first read the heading "Hideous Cargo Van", I first thought of this great find from craigslist :rolleyes:

Will be back at it on Monday. I need to repair the holes in the walls that I have been bouncing off of from boredom :rolleyes:
