I bet Wichita for a D unit is like that Mississippi gumbo mud was for me in that loaded Peterbilt hauling rice off the farm a few years back. You go to get in it to get the job done, and once you get there you're going to be there for a minute. I just don't think a big John Deere tractor will do you much good in your situation. 
Hey Pelicn glad you and Cheri got to meet! I bet that was a blast Cheri can sure keep you going and is fun to be around!
I am afraid moose has said it though DH 2 KC and Wichita is the kiss of death for us.

It wouldn't be a dead zone for me this time, if I'd only kept those Panther decals handy, lol.
When I called the consignee to verify delivery time, he asked "You're taking the return load to New York, right?" Upon further conversation, it was clear that he thought I was the Panther unit (I introduced myself when I called, but you know men don't listen) who had not yet arrived from NY.
I could have slapped on some black cats & hijacked a cross country load! (And I'd have been laughing, the entire way, too.

Ok, it wouldn't be a cross country run - I forgot that I'm not in California anymore.
And of course I wouldn't reeeally do it......probably.
O wait - would it get me in the Expediters Hall of Fame, d'ya think? Cause I'd definitely do it, just for that.
So, is anybody else gonna be in KC tomorrow?

Thanks, Dave. But according to Miss Julia, (one of my favorite fictional characters) who is THE expert on class, a lady speaks softly, walks with excellent posture, sits modestly, smiles most of the time, and defers to the gentleman. (At least in public)
I am still ROFLMAO, cause I know a lot of women with class, and not one of them acts like that.

YIKES! That's the definition? Ummmm....that leaves me out!
Dang! I should check this forum more often. I dropped in Wichita yesterday(9/04) morning. You could have bought me breakfast. Moved to Oak Grove, Mo last night and got a load this morning. Oh well, maybe next time...
