Ready to Roll

Truck and generator have been serviced. Found a good shop just over a mile from the house. Very good work and very thourogh.

Discussed what to do about the generator engine vibration with the owner of the shop and I think we came up with a good solution. When I get back in town for the Memorial Day holiday, he will attached a steering dampner shock to the bracket on the top of the motor normally used to lift it, and the other end to the back of the case. He will also add new isolators to the base. He also informs me he can install an invertor and deep cell battery and relocate the 12 volt side of the sleeper to the deep cell. This will keep the drain for that and the invertor away from the truck batteries. Of course all this depends on how the month of May is profit wise.

Decided to leave the International with Tri-State at least for another month. We'll see if they can put their money where their mouth is. Did get a phone call today from some company in SC wanting me to sign on. They supposedly have 48 state authority, but they obtain their loads strictly from the internet load boards. Not going there. Too much of a risk.

So, we'll see how May goes.

Trucking as what other says, is a good choice if you are after with a great income. Especially if your trucks are supported with a good trucking software
