Nice ride, Richard~!

Makes you 'hard to see' with all that white, hahaha!! Same with my guy in the snow, but not here:

At least some of the older trailers still have that green front panel, though!

Chris W. is looking for you, in another 'Mack' thread; his Anthem is down again. Bummer. :(

Hope all is well with you! Really like your ride, man.

ps; Who do you haul for again? Challenger, perhaps? Sorry! Forgot. One trailer says 'Low Risk Logistics,' yet the recent one is .. blank, or .. snowy?!? LoL.

See ya soon~!

Yuck!! Would've been a FINE time to try my potential new chair, on a QC basis, for me:

Smaller than an UMBRELLA, when folded, LoL !

I love to read / hear about things, Norte' for sure. Never heard of your company, but saw the logo on the trailer in the distant first photo. Have you ever heard anything good/bad about Challenger? I forget the name of their subsidiary. We don't see them in the states, as often as we used to.

Do you do Cross Border freight? Those that do, are getting thinner, or I'm just not knowing whom, anymore!

Test the chair next time; let me know if it fold small enough to store relatively snug!

Thanks, sir. Safe travels,

Thanks lol. All I know about challenger is give them lots of space on the road lol. No we don’t do cross border anymore. I guess it’s just not worth the hassle or something. We do Toronto to Montreal and Winnipeg. I’m the one picking up everything going out of Toronto and delivering everything coming into Toronto. Or at least I was until lately but we’re focusing on intermodal as it seems to be more profitable at the moment with the price of fuel being crazy and most loads are local.

Intermodal:

Transporting freight using two or more transportation modes. An example would be freight that is moved by truck from the shipper's dock to the rail yard, then placed on a train to the next rail yard, and finally returned to a truck for delivery to the receiving customer.

In trucking when you hear someone refer to an intermodal job they're normally talking about hauling shipping containers to and from the shipyards and railyards.

Hay Richard; this is the best place as any to ask ya..., so !

Have fuel prices in the CN/Norte' gotten any better? Have you EVER driven Class A (or 1 as you call it) in the USA?

Just wondering. Still doing intermodal, for the most part, too? What's the 'main' difference between your HOS and ours? What are your laws, re: weapons/firearms, in CA? I should've been a journalist; I'm just lacking the 'power of the pen' like Brett, Rainy, O/S, G, and Rob T. and PJ (etc.....) have! O.o

I know, ... questions. Sorry! The differences & similarities between 'us' intrigue me, haha!!

Thanks, as always & stay safe!!
