Where is Mike? Where is he going? Don't ask him, he's probably lost.

[Mike]

Tomorrow is supposed to be in the 20's

Yep, gonna offload and reload as quickly as possible tomorrow and get myself down to Phoenix.

I live in Northwest Arkansas, not south Arkansas. We don’t roll like that up here.

 

[Mike]

Truck Down!

driving along, minding my own business, notice temp gauge fluctuating a bit more than usual.

Pull in rest area, lift hood, say a few cuss words.

Shut hood, drive down to Brooklyn T/A, now awaiting a 4 inch long coolant hose to be replaced.

Doesn’t matter how closely you keep an eye on things, my stuff always breaks while I’m driving.

 

[Mike]

And no, not fixing it myself. The ice pellets flying sideways through the sky hurt!

Look at your other hoses for a date. Anything over 5 years, definitely 6, should be scheduled to be replaced.

Once you exceed 35 mph, raindrops on your face don't hurt any worse as you speed up. You can be going 45 or you can be going 100 mph, all feels the same.

And yes I've gone 100 mph in the rain on a motorcycle with no helmet on. I used to be young.

90 minutes, in and out. Pretty impressed with the turn around time at the T/A this afternoon. It helped that the place was virtually empty.

Make sure you call Homer Hog and tell him how good they treated you.

Lol. Listened to that guy on the trucking channel and man can he talk.

I will be getting a good comment sent their way though, it’s rare that you can show up at a shop of any kind and be taken care of that quickly, and without getting ripped off when you pay the bill.
