BIG day for @Bigrigtravels as he completed the (should be) final revenue-generating trip last night before heading home to Danville, IL today to start unloading and removing his equipment from The Blue Comet.
He'll be officially retired on Monday.
Tomorrow, he acquires a new RV that was fully inspected with a few minor repairs completed prior to being signed off on.
Congratulations on twenty years of being a safety-first Knight Of The Highway.

A recent real-life example from your senior Fediverse Truck Driver, @Bigrigtravels , on why it's important to stay behind stop lines at intersections:

Today's visit was a pretty straightforward drop and hook (dropped an empty trailer from the previous receiver he picked up earlier then connected to a loaded trailer at this shipper). And now, Steve's off. Hopefully the weather cooperates as he heads back west. #BigRigTravels
Big thank you to @Bigrigtravels for sending my mother a signed Xmas card for the holidays. She was surprised and very pleased to receive it.
Also see his boss, AJ, signed it as well. That makes it BRT-official.
Congratulations on the Two Million Milestone today, too, Steve! #BigRigTravels
It's time to watch @Bigrigtravels drive his career two millionth mile. Here's this morning's Live broadcast link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdfw9TvJ87c #BigRigTravels

Getting ready to watch @Bigrigtravels traverse two state highways (NV233 & UT30) he hasn't been on before, which also have likely not been broadcast live either. He'll be heading up north and west of Great Salt Lake, so will be very exciting to see. Here's the current livestream link, so check it out... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdS9bdx7Krw #BigRigTravels

Another snag for @Bigrigtravels today, after having some unrelated issues yesterday. But, thankfully, he has made it to a Love's and is on a short wait list for a trailer tandem repair to this current shipment he just picked up (that was found connected to another truck which itself was hooked to a tow truck). Quite the day it has been, but Steve's in pretty good spirits all things considered. #BigRigTravels
A big welcome to @Bigrigtravels , who's now on mastodon.social . Definitely worth a follow if you'd like to see the daily adventures of America's hardest working truck driver. Hop aboard, along with the Road Crew, and view the great sights of his premium broadcast from the Blue Comet's windshield. He's less than thirty thousand miles from two million in his career, so he's your highly qualified guide to bring the highways and backroads of the U.S. to you. #BigRigTravels
As well, @BigRigTravels has been on a multi-day and multi-state "wild trailer chase", trying to locate an empty to complete a shipment. He had a trailer, but after going to the shipper, had to return right back to the starting point as it was allocated elsewhere. He drove bobtail (truck only) to a truck stop hours away to discover no empty trailer there, either. He also had no luck picking one up at two other distribution centres. We'll see what happens tomorrow. #BigRigTravels
