Load One July- Feel the Power!
- Thread starter RoadTime
- Start date
Good Late Morning Early Afternoon Load One live from McAllisters Deli! The van is at the dealership getting a oil change and new tires and wheels. It's that time for that DOT Inspection at the end of the month.
After today I'll be heading to The Expo Show in Lexington KY! Can't wait and see everyone. I also can't wait and see what Mr. E has to say and think about the industry and future of it.
I hate to say it but it looks like it's going to be a wet Expo Show this year. Friday and Saturday rain
. Hope its changes!

Ok Roadtime. I know it hasn't been that long but I've time today and I'll go a bit more into it. For me I eat one good meal a day. My average per day is $15 and × that by 31 is $465. I mainly run $400 to $500 a month in food. There were two months that I spent over $600 to $660 in a monthBreaking News!!!! Ok, anyone and everyone who reads the Load One forum knows that I eat out most of the time once a day. That will be changing. I bought me a ARB Fridge Freezer 82qt! I love this thing and it will pay for itself quickly. It will also come in handy when im under those critical loads
Pretty nice. I looked one up, pretty hefty price on it. Impressive low AMP usage. Keep us posted
. There was also several times that while watching the races I could have fix something cause there wasn't nothing that interested me.I'm old fashion and believe that get what you want even if you have to wait. I'm not a Walmart parker and I like staying at truckstop so I'm not going to live at Walmart cause of a smaller fridge. I could have gotten the 50qt and would have gotten by. With a few hundred dollars extra I bought the 82qt. I also got the bag and wireless monitor. It's for the long term so it will pay for itself.
I hope you don't think I was knocking you for getting it, I wasn't. If it performs as they say, I may get one myselfOk Roadtime.

When I first started expediting in 08 I bought a Dometic 50 qt fridge along the same lines as what Dollar bought. I like my food and drinks COLD and not sopping in water from melted ice. In 9 years I am on fridge number 2, the first one failed in permanent ON mode, I still use it at home as a freezer. My second is still in the truck, it runs 24/7 and is in year 7 and still going strong. Keeps everything at 33F even parked in the July Laredo sun.....no Koolatron type unit can do that. The upfront cost of these units is a bit scary...but when you factor in their performance and how long they last....they get pretty cheap. If I needed another one I would seriously look at what Dollar bought...amp draw is slightly lower than my Dometic.
Not at all Roadtime! Just giving you insight and the way I look and think of things! We're all good!I hope you don't think I was knocking you for getting it, I wasn't.

I got one picking up in the morning going to Indiana. If I can get a good load for over the weekend I could salvage this week. Otherwise it will be my worst week of the year. Possibly worst in 10 years.

Well I couldn't get the DOT Inspection done today. It will get done first thing in the morning. The oil change and wheels and tires got done also had to take care of a personal matter.
I'll be heading to the Expo Show tomorrow and should be there Friday Afternoon!

Its Casino time at the Expo!
Came close several times of winning a prize, but no cigar. Time for bed and get up early for some workshops, visit booths and look around. Then it will be BBQ time!

Yes it was! As I was walking around and looking at other booths, I've notice everyone was just the same as last year and years past. NOT LOAD ONE!
As I got done walking I would sit on the couch and look around and see what was really going on. ALOT of people was very intrigued by the App as Matt was showing and telling them about it.
At the end of the show one think caught my eye. As John was taking down the App display "a real one" which NO one wanted a part of, LOL. One of our competitors that John knows was watching and staring at John from a distance taking down the App display. To me the look on his face said it all. I think the watching and staring was more of the App and the HEART and DEDICATION that John has and who knows, maybe he would like to be him?
I personally would like to see more Load One drivers at next year's Expo Show! We don't only need to show support for Load One, but show support to our Owner and CEO John Elliott. John gives his heart and soul and his dedication to all of us to be successful in this business and we need to stand by him as much as he stands by us!
Good Afternoon Load One live from Pizza Hut! After leaving here, I'll be heading back to get the van restock and going back in service later on today. Can't wait to get July over with and hopefully August will start out with a bag!
BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!! After I came home from the Expo Show, parents and I had a good talk this weekend. From there stand point there telling me that they are ok for now and don't need me much around the house. I'll have to agree to disagree, LOL. So with that said, I'll be going back running like I used to. I'll be running and staying out more! Let's make the last five months of the year the best!
