I'm leased on to trailer transit .I'm currently making 1.53 a running mile with includes goofing off,mt ,and loaded miles.I get a big discount on fuel at the Ta Petro's.most of the time I'm hauling light.last feet weeks I've been grosing 5800 to 6400.In wich I've been hauling light getting from 8.4 to 9.5 mpg.Tolls are paid loaded but not mt unless you cross a bridge or try to get them to cover mt tolls.We have pre pass plus so no receipts to keep up with

That's amazing!! I have a hard time getting 8mpg bobtailing. I don't even want to tell you what I average loaded.

I had 2 straps break.I figured it would have happened earlier They broke between Minnesota and Madison Wi.I don't carry chains but put 3/ 2 inch straps in it and made it to the rail yard off I 294 and I 55.Glad to get rid of that!.
 
Picked up a new generator and am in San Antonio Florida to get up in the morning for Riverview

Well Freightliner got me at York Ne.And now im at Grand Island Ne with a speed sensor.No spedo or odometer and no E log.Ive been having problems for a while with the cruise and Jake not working.If you hit the engine fan they come back on but last 3 days it's been acting up.I have a 2003 deteoit and 1 time it sent me a code 53 so I'm hoping it's just the speed sensor. It lasted a long time 1,793,008 miles.I hope the part is close by.Im waiting to get pulled in the shop!Last year I teplace the switch on the clutch and it didn't help and it still makes a clicking noise.Also now my rpm is limited to 1700 rpm
 
Dropped in Sparks and jumped back on I 80 and got pulled over for a dot check around Fernly and passed!
