    And This....is 2020

    The answer: MS to Frostbite Falls, Minnesota. It’s actually a bit warm here, above 32° right now at the TA in Rogers. Tomorrow night, though, folks will need all three dogs to bundle up with; the weather peeps are calling for temperatures below zero Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    And This....is 2020

    That’s probably a safe bet, Rags. Even Greyhound drivers play sports car with their coaches on the turnpike in those parts of PA. That stretch of the Pike is very hilly and curvy; especially in the area where this happened. The speed limit has long been 55 through there, but we all know how...

    And This....is 2020

    The PA Turnpike is closed east of Pittsburgh; avoid the area if you can. Bad wreck, 5 dead; two rigs, a straight truck, a car and a bus. Road could be closed for hours. Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    December 2019 Yo Ho Ho and A Bottle of Rum

    Got a nice triple anyway: TN to the DC metro area. Now if the cons would come unload the freight, we could go home and start our holiday. There’s a certain six year old we’d like to see [emoji173]️ Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    Best truck stops

    Even some TAs are stepping down to fast food. Petros seem to be holding on to their restaurants. Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    Fork lift loading for small box trucks with a lift gate.

    Onto the gate? Probably. Into the truck? Not possible. Sent from my iPhone using EO Forums

    November 2020 Is For Turkeys

    He would have, but it turned into a TONU. When I got to O’Hare I was told the freight wouldn’t arrive until after 1800, and wouldn’t be shippable until tomorrow. I have a cold right now, so I don’t mind. It would be nice to go somewhere warm, tbh. The room wasn’t bad. We had a minor issue pop...

    Got out of Missouri [emoji4] Springfield to Ottawa, IL with a 34 lb. [emoji403]. Now chillin’ at the Pilot in Morris, until 3 when we can go to our room in Joliet. Hopefully we can get out tomorrow. Shouldn’t be too hard; usually a properly trained chimp can book a load outta Chicago [emoji4]...

    Fork lift loading for small box trucks with a lift gate.

    You have the advantage that you can adjust the liftgate to dock height, if you encounter a place with no ramp. However, the only way you’re gonna load that truck is with a pump-type pallet jack. That truck is great for local work, but over the road, where ya need to accommodate a bed, etc? I...

    November 2020 Is For Turkeys

    Been sitting like a king on a throne [emoji17] Early in the month we finally made it home. Went as far as Lincoln NE on our own dime, then got a run to IL, followed by an STL to Ohio. From OH we went to a funeral in western PA, then home to our son’s place. We just kinda vegetated for a week or...
