    Well, the ride up was uneventful for the most part. I left my AO at 0300 and at 0710 was waiting at the truckstop in Wildwood. We were a little disorganized but finally got on the way. Made a fuel stop at the GA 11 and your truley had an emergency that caused another break at a rest area @...

    Short notice but is anyone going to anywhere near SixSpeed before departure? He has 2 drums of JP8 that I got from Brannan but I just don't have time to go get them. He says he can meet someone if it helps. If not, I'll get it later

    Roy, how far off of I-75 are you? How much advance notice would you need? Driving the red Chevy with the MUTT in tow?

    Planned departure is 9A Roy, I'd think around 10:45 or so. Do you still have the phone number ending in 3989? If si I can give you a heads up.

    Well, lets just stay with what we have then. Vinny will either meet us on the hiway or come down for breakfast. Sorry Pete, forgot about the big truck.

    Folks, I was on the blower with Vinnysocom today. He lives one exit north of Wildwood off exit 341. Thats 12 miles north of Wildwood. There are some places around there too. Vinny mentioned possibly driving south to meet up with us for breakfast. Anyone have an opinion on if we should...

    You may want to factor in a tenth hour. These convoys just seem to go slower overall. I'm fortunate in the fact that I'll have all of my fuel for the trip with me so all I need is a fat spot in the road to fuel up. Jack, I know there is an expense related but my M1008 is still not spoken for...

    No problem Daniel. Make sure one of us knuckleheads has your number so we can ring the blower.

    LOL I have towbar shackles on the front of my suburban. Never know when you will need to push an ailing MV with a pintle on the back!

    Well, whichever truckstop we end up at, I won't be hard to spot. Look for the guy with 3 trailers.

    Exit number is 329. Once off the exit of you go west there is a truckstop right there, pretty sure it's a Pilot. I'll be there late Tuesday night to grab a few zzzzs before the next leg. Departure time is set for 9AM. I'd suggest getting there not later than 730 if you want breakfast. I don't...

    My powercoms that I use for intercoms and hearing protection have FRS and GMRS frequencies in them. I have a total of 4 headsets but only 2 have the GMRS frequencies. I'll have a sack of FRS radios as well.

    If all goes as planned, I'll be at Wildwood by midnight Tuesday. I'm going to grab some ZZZZs at the Pilot truckstop and be ready in the AM. At this time I'm driving my M35A2C with 2 M116A3 trailers in the bed and the contact maintenance trailer in tow. Other stuff may come as well. I don't...
