Our one still shows not received. I do know that we scanned it on Thursday at the delivery. The hard copy of it has been turned in.

Well, God must of been listening....Joe just called, with a sweet load to Laredo! Thank you, Joe, youre the man!And God, also...:rolleyes:


So, I'm driving along on the way to the pickup, and just in awe of the load coming up,oblivious to the fact that there is a race at the track in Michigan on 12 this weekend....lol..And just having a chat with the big guy upstairs...and just thinking out loud, "Ya know, God, I appreciatte this run and everything, and not to press youre blessings any, but it would be nice if this load was lighter, and smaller than the 3 skids, 2,700#. Got there, and it ended up being 1 and a half skids, 800#...Talk about freaking out! Sorry, this ain't coincidence or luck..Just makes me wonder...Sorry, dont mean to get all biblical and stuff, but something like this, it is hard to be quiet about..:D

Chef,Since your hauling straight truck freight I would guess you are grossing over 10000 lbs.so do you have to use a log book and stop at scales...

Nope....but keep in mind that not all ST loads will take me over the 10,000 lb gvw limit....this load is over 13 ft long..but less then 2800 lbs...

I have also had 6 skids in this truck that wouldn't go in a sprinter that would have had to go in a ST if i hadn't been able to get them...that has happened more then a few times...sometimes under 10,000 lbs, sometimes ...well...:)

Still in Laredo, seasonably hot here, and not as many vans down here as I expected to be.In my shaded hiding spot, patiently awaiting for that phone call...May go to Ford and get my cruise control fixed tomarrow.

Stopped at the Pilot in Altoona, put the van back together and the bed up, it is really muggie here, so the ac is in the window and the generator is cranking...I'll sleep nice tonight...:)
