Sitting at 29 Palms near the J at the Red Roof Inn. Temp today got to 114 or something like that. My van broke down "Again". Now I have to spend 2,300$ to get the spindle on the wheel hub and a new differential. Parts are warrentied for 12 months tho. Good thing....the only thing I need tomorrow is a nice load going east preferably, Ohio. I'm thinking about leaving as an owner op with Panther and possibly driving team with another company in a straight truck driving for someone. I'm just tired of the no-load syndrome that's been going around a certain place that I know of. :rolleyes: Yes, I was given an EM to dh from El Paso, TX to Los Angeles, California because the freight in Texas just seemed to dissapear when I got there.

You just need to leave where you are at and get a fresh start with a new company.
