    Looks like Fremont, CA.... San Francisco, CA.... to Grand Island, NE is going to be my regular run. Leave early Thur mornings and get home early/mid Tue. 3,200 miles each week.
    Winter is going to suck.

    You got that right Pat,I drive tri=axle dump truck,and I wouldn't tangle with one of these,never the less a 18 wheeler.Neither one of them play nice with bikes or 4 wheelers.Drive safe.Oh,and I see you drive for DOT,Here in upstate N.Y. we don't like DOT.We run around them. They love to give out tickets at the end of the month.

    Quite a year so far.
    Had the heart attack Christmas Day. Off all of January. Cleared to drive mid-Feb. Ok to throw freight in March.
    Been on a regular run from Central CA to Pratt, KS. Drive six days, one day off.... repeat.
    Got a new truck 2 weeks ago. Old one had 702,000 miles on it. New one had 833 miles on the odo when I got it. A touch over 8,000 now.
    Tomorrow (5/3/12) I go to San Fransisco to deliver and pick-up. 5/4 head to Los Angeles then Moriarity, NM.
    I was in NM a week ago and the buzz was a motorcycle and a big rig had a conflict. The driver was unaware of what happened and sadly the biker was dragged under the truck for quite a ways. Everyone watch out out for each other.
