Disrespect

Ogt+logo

Last night, I was treated pretty badly. I don’t think I deserved it, actually I know I didn’t, but I have sat here all day wondering what brought on the behavior that I received last night at my receiver. I had brought produce back to Minnesota from California. It was a normal load that I [...]

Truck Stop #4

IMG_9137

Savoy Truck Stop- Deming NM I love this place. For a few reasons really, but mostly because so far it has the cheapest fuel in New Mexico that I have found. Above and beyond that though, they have good staff, a very clean facility, small chrome shop, a tire shop, a nice restaurant by the [...]

Slow on Content

IMG_9549

I have to apologize for the lack of content both here and on twitter the last month or so. For the past couple weeks, I guess 3 or 4 I’ve been having problems with a numb hand and arm. It has been very uncomfortable for me. Actually painful so I’ve been trying to not do [...]

Truck Stop #3

CVSA 2010 Bullshit

hubs+rosie

My Personal Mechanic Every year it happens. Every year around this time, all you hear when you walk into a truck stop a day or two before CVSA’s annual event is all the chatter going on about the big DOT 72 hour road check…. For my readers who are not truckers I will explain a [...]

Truck-Stop #2

Truck Stop #2 Flying J- Jerrell Texas This was a very nice truck stop I must say. The employees were very nice, the whole complex was new so of coarse nothing was run down. They had nice tile floors and showers and everything was clean. My only real complaints would be that the towels were [...]

*Just a note: I’m moving a few things around on the new website, so a some things may be reruns until I get everything where I want it! Thank you! My first truck stop I want to feature is probably one of my favorites!! I hate to say it, but the showers at Sapp Bros. [...]
