That depends on your definition of 'on the road'

If I am on a minimum of a 34 and there happens to be a bar near by, then
i will. But only if I have 24 hours before I drive again.

As I sit looking all around,
Confusion and uncertainty is all I found.
The answers are there,
But I do not know where.
Optimistic and hopeful dreams,
Are all I have so it seems.
The future I do not know,
So all I can do is take it slow.
But I do know it will work out,
So I wait and watch without a doubt

I've been too busy to post. But, I'm never too busy to pass up an opportunity to reprise some of the Rev's fine artwork from the past. (ps...Hawk I owe you a message)

LMAO.........Actually DR, we decided that the CR England deal seemed like the way to go. Me and CFM are now the proud lessees of a big red rooster cruiser.:lol:

CFM loves irregular-route OTR and is a joy to team with! This whole "work 80-100, log 70, paid 40" is definitely the way to go!

Cool! I start with them next week as a trainer. Already got three, yes three, trainees lined up to be on my truck all at once. Miles,miles,miles. It's all about the miles. You guys should get some trainees also. Then you will get MO' MILES:rofl:

I've had plenty of practice with cotton trailers. :lol:
Jackrabbit here's a pic of where I parked my set of empties when I came in off the road this morning. I left em hooked in case somebody needed a set later on. (besides its cool and I like doing it!) I'm sure I could hit a dock but it has to have alot of room in front of it and it needs to be a dark (closed) terminal because I'm sure a supervisor wouldn't be as impressed with my special skill!:lol: Plus all the driver's waiting for me to finish so they can get by wouldn't be happy either. Although I suspect some would be amused. If you can back a hooked dolly then you can back the tail but it takes tons of practice. It wastes alot of time learning and you look like an idiot doing it but once you learn it it saves alot of time. (Plus like I said. its cool and I like doing it:rofl. Now I do this stuff all the time. A lot of times I hook with my dolly attatched instead of spotting it. I know you could say I staged this pic but you'll just have to believe me. Someday I'll get someone to shoot a video. Sorry for hijacking your thread Hobo!
