Title: Weirdo in the ditch spotted today
Big Rig Travels broadcast day began 10:03 EDT near Zion Crossroads, Virginia. We started with empty trailer dead heading to shipper.
Trailer refer fuel tank needed to be topped off and trailer inside blown out. We stopped at Loves ❤️to accomplish along with fueling ⛽️the Blue Comet. Afterwards BRS advised that we are 49 gallons away from reaching Loves gold status. Also advised next three fuel stops are at Loves so we will surpass meeting Gold level for July rewards.
As we rolled to shipper, BRS advised that we should not have any trailer issues as it was preloaded and a brand new trailer. Arrival was 12:05 EDT at shipper.
Stream resumed at 12:34 EDT after completing the drop and hook and BRS reset all of the broadcasting equipment to clear up issues with the on screen telemetry display and the truck computer.
Next need was mass/weight check back at the Loves and getting breakfast/lunch; yep, hotdogs. We are extremely heavy but moving trailer tandems back two holes was the ticket.
13:00 EDT rolling bound for Utah.
13:30 EDT Crossed the Maury River in Virginia .
13:37 EDT Blue Comet rolls past 116,000 miles “that calls for a Belvita”

Yes, he has the record for most times waving at Steve in the ditch.
