I agree completely .......The unload process is usually quick and painless but have yet to get anything out of there relatively close the past three loads there .

Little to late, we bought in SugarCreek down a little dirt road and spent a small fortune in getting it built out and set up.
But thanks for the offer!

I started heading towards Birmingham, got about 70 miles out when dispatch called and said they had a run to Campaign,IL... I didn't really want it so I put in a pretty hefty amount, guess I'm going to Illinois.

Gotta get it when you can!

Was a busy 3 shorty day to gross a long one
As much as I dislike short runs, It was a very enjoyable day. Until I got a great load heading south. I guess it paid too much, it cancelled 5 mins later

Now settled in somewhere about 30 miles SW of Indy at a Walmart.

Just got a look at what Ken is getting JuJu for Christmas. A gold plated, diamond studded iPhone with picture of POTUS Trump engraved on it. A bargain at $150,000.00. Which is nothing for OVM.

He paid for it with his penny picking at Walmart parking lots!
