  1. Just saw this this morning. I honestly never knew they existed. https://www.technotrucker.com/tire-view-tpms/tire-view-tire-pressure-monitoring-system/
  2. 729 miles today. Shutting down for 10 in Acoma, NM. For those that don’t know this is only a hard run to meet the deadline because of the electronic log. If I was still on paper I’d be eating breakfast in Arizona.
  3. 30 minute break in Tucumcari. Yes it’s only one piece of rail. But it’s much better than that. It was already on site in LA but it didn’t have the right bend in it. So they loaded it on a truck and sent it to Sherman, unloaded it and took it into the shop. After an hour of doing whatever they did , they brought it back out and put it on me to take back to the site in LA. You can see the curve in the pic. Notice the yellow mark to show which way to bend it. It pays pretty good if you’re wondering.
  4. Leaving Sherman Texas @4:30pm. Need to be in LA Monday morning. That’s California not lower Alabama. Let’s see if we can make snowman and the bandit proud.
  5. Rim of the world. Huge plot holes. An extremely annoying character. Bad acting. I loved it!!
  6. Just came back to post this. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-country/sturgill-simpson-opry-bluegrass-841418/
  7. Sturgill was on the opry tonight. Replaying Friday at 9 on willies roadhouse Siriusxm. It was a full on bluegrass set. Mandolin and banjo.
  8. Water is wet The sky is blue....
  9. What are y’all using to get in the crevices to get stuff out? Brushes or just the corner of a rag?
  10. Need recommendations for interior. Dash and instrument cluster mostly. So much dust!
  11. Whachu talking? I have zero experience with Korean accents. Are they really bad?
  12. Same. Genuine laughs. And now I have a crush on Andrea Bang. She’s just so damn cute.
  13. Anyone willing to figure out how much she charges? [emoji47]
  14. Dead to me. Creepy, funny, disturbing, emotional. Great show. Can’t wait to see where they go next season.
  15. Couldn’t find a better link. So much going on here.
  16. Please share the results of that poll.
  17. If caterpillar still made truck motors it would have said “Purple painted pussy powered pete”
  18. Only good paying loads. I ain’t cheap.
  19. My company has a brokerage which means they have their own customer base that needs trucks to haul their loads. So 99% of the time I haul loads generated by our company. As a lease driver I pay the company a % of the loads I haul for them. And the rates are set by my company. If I go independent with my own authority I will have access to may other brokers and can haul any loads I want to. I will no longer be paying a percentage but will be able to negotiate the price I am willing to haul the loads for. Pros of a lease: I have a dispatcher that coordinates loads for me to keep me moving. Cons of a lease: I have a dispatcher that basically determines how much money I can earn each week. Pros of independence: I am the only one that determines how much money I can make each week. Cons of independence: I don’t have a company that I’m tied to with consistent loads.
  20. Yes, for now. They have been good enough to me that I was able to buy my own truck. And it’s the first step in working towards my own authority.
