Yeah I know, and while I like the miles and the money, we REALLY need to get the truck back to Romulus to be worked on. The APU hasn't worked for several weeks now, and we need to get the front steer tires replaced and aligned, plus there are a bunch of recall repairs that need to be done on the truck and on top of that the transmission is leaking. :(

Plus we've been out for almost 6 weeks now and I just want to spend a few days at home. :D

At least you got a call, will get a little something for the call. Not a word from them today. Starting to wonder if for some reason I have been put on the bad list. The last 3 weeks have been horrible

I use to think I was on "The List" too when I had a horrible run of "Luck". That dry-run was very good miles, I needed that. One run a week is not going to keep me going for long. I guess the good thing is, the bill collectors can't find me out here.....

We are in Columbia, SC. It was really strange when we went back in service on Wed, we were in Romulus and we were the only ST for 60 miles. I don't think we've ever been to Detroit area where we were the only ST there. lol

We took a load from Brownstown, MI to Lexington, KY.. then picked one up in Indy and brought it here to SC. At least we got 2 loads in for the week.

Happy Easter everyone! :)

We're in Breezewood, PA at the nicest T/A truck stop I've ever seen. Last night we delivered in McConnellsburg, PA and the gps took us down US 30 from there to Breezewood. It's 2 lane, winding up and down the mountains, top truck speed allowed down is 20mph and our truck didn't go much faster than that back up again. lol. It's quite a ride at night! I'm sure the long line of cars behind us was cussing us all the way up the mountains, but I think if we had pulled over to let them go by we never would have gotten started up again. lol

I actually was the one who drove last night on US 30. She was just the co-driver with the imaginery brake pedal. I didn't think it was that bad. Been on worse. If it had snow on it, then it might of been a challenge. :D

We're back at Interstate, in Romulus, again. Our APU has stopped working right, again. I had the happy task of driving all night last night from St. Marys, PA to Sterling Heights and, after delivering this morning, driving here to Interstate. So now I get to set in their uncomfortable drivers lounge all day after driving all night, again. I HOPE they get it fixed right this time!!!
