Additional Notes: Steve’s tractor had a slight glitch with the fifth wheel, which necessitated an onsite repair at the local truckstop. Later, Steve was going to re-power the trailer to another driver team, but ended up re-hooking to the trailer and delivering both loads with new appointment times. Steve will head back home to Belvidere for some time off after this trip is completed.
