IH Truck Guy Posted October 13, 2011 #1 Posted October 13, 2011 Well,looks like I get to make a trip north of the border again..... This time I get to load a runway sweeper on a RGN stretch and take it to Saskatoon....... Maybe I can make another M&E with the truck.......
friesman Posted October 13, 2011 #2 Posted October 13, 2011 If youre that close try and stop for a coffee, Saskatoon is about 2 hours drive north from me. Let me know what your route is and maybe we can meet up for a coffee. I am in Regina SK thats right on the #1 Trans Canada Highway . Theres a sofa and a fold out if you need a place to stay too.

Brian Right on.. I load Saturday and being a permit load,I'm not sure when it's going to deliver.. It will be about 1500 miles up there.. I'll take your number with me.Thanks for the invite... It's pretty sad when I meet more members when I'm in the truck... All the Ontario members haven't seen me on the bike in two years..lol That tells me I'm working way too much.....

sarges46 Posted October 13, 2011 #6 Posted October 13, 2011 We should be home all day Sunday. If you can that would be great. Having travelled many miles myself I do understand if you cant though. Give us a wave as you roar through though.
IH Truck Guy Posted October 15, 2011 Author #7 Posted October 15, 2011 Well,just like the wind blows,my travel plans have changed...Big suprise I know,right.. The load going to Saskatoon won't ship till weds or thurs,so I have a load booked that loads monday and goes to Winnipeg and then I have to haul a** to get back in time to load the other piece and try to deliver friday or maybe saturday... I'll keep ya posted if I have time to stop for a visit.. Of course this is Shari's weekend to work and I get a couple of extra day's at home.... Just my luck...
friesman Posted October 15, 2011 #8 Posted October 15, 2011 Its a truckers life...never really knowin where you are. Anytime youre around let us know and we will try to work out a coffee Brian
IH Truck Guy Posted October 20, 2011 Author #9 Posted October 20, 2011 I unloaded in Winnipeg last nite and have to load out of Fargo in the morning...... That's if they get the truck fixed again.....Sitting in Fargo till morning.... The Saskatoon load is still on hold,so I'll catch you guys next trip up hopefully.... Here's what I brought up to Winnipeg.....
Yamamike Posted October 20, 2011 #11 Posted October 20, 2011 Right on.. I load Saturday and being a permit load,I'm not sure when it's going to deliver.. It will be about 1500 miles up there..

If I could just figure out a way to get paid to ride......... Ride safe, Mike
Sylvester Posted October 20, 2011 #12 Posted October 20, 2011 I thought you were running an IH. The Wester Star looks a bit different. That being said I realize that big truck manufacturers are changing all the time. Last big truck I drove was a Diamond T in the early to mid seventies.

That being said I realize that big truck manufacturers are changing all the time. Last big truck I drove was a Diamond T in the early to mid seventies. I ran all IH when I owned mine.. Now I drive for the man and have to drive what they give me,in this case,a lemon..
