Ditto to what xiggi said. It's over, move on. Do what John suggested and call Brian in the morning. Get a ride, save your money and then get your own truck.

I didnt get screwed? Ok lets see...I had a van in south texas that I had lined up to buy that I gave up because Noel promised me that his van was going to me. After many back and forth conversations he reassured me that the first week of January I was to fly down to Charlotte to pick up the van...So I gave my two weeks notice to arguably the best owner out there, and now have no ride with him anymore. I didn't have a christmas this year/ wasnt able to participate in gift exchanges or go out with the family for the traditional christmas trip. I was assured the van as late as last wednesday, he told me how he was a christian man and only made the offer to me, and that he wasnt dealing with anyone else...So you tell me now that south texas has no vans to sell, and i have no ride...How am i not screwed...I went from a job/a van in south texas to no ride and no money made for almost a month now...Yes I now have a deal set up to drive with a very good owner here at Load 1 in two or three weeks....An im not gonna stop thriving and pushing to get my own van, but dont say im not screwed when ya dont know the whole story...I also know that there are people out there that have it way worse than me...But I was just venting that I got railed, an yall are saying I didnt...Yeah its business but shady as heck, I got lied to an went from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows...Yall be safe out there this year, and ill be out there with yall sometime...GoodLuck and GodBless ;)

I'm in Kansas City, where it's cold and sunny. Drove across 64 and then 70 to get here, through the swath of the tail of that storm. I mostly caught flurries across Illinois and Missouri, (and that stupid relentless 35 MPH headwind I was driving into, which did wonders for my fuel mileage). Lots of cars off the shoulder and in the median the closer I got the KC, but all that happened the night before, apparently. Roads were clear and dry when I went over them.

Is it a type of vacation you enjoy? Booking another?

Yup. We are going to be looking at the Western Carribean. We had a really good time snorkeling, and have been told that the reefs in the western area are a lot more colorful and vibrant. I am in the process of putting all of the pics up on facebook right now.
