If you keep the truck on the road you make money.


Yep and it`s damn hard to do if you try running for a moron such as Hugh who brought unserviced, unmaintained junk to do runs in a harsh environment. He`s a moron.

How do you lose a batterybox and not even notice


Pretty easy when you are running the terrain they run , the hours on the ice like that, and the loads that some were.
Had a friend behind me once who had an auto that had rear ended him stuck under the rear of the trailer. He didn`t know it for miles.

Rick should have put the truck in the shop.


Which he suggested numerous times and was told not to. I think he stuck it out pretty well considering the fat loud mouth idiot that owned the truck.
Hugh was all about the camera. He even sold himself out by having one goal of hauling the most loads. If he had serviced his trucks that he had drivers in and kept them going instead of blowing off at the mouth he could have tripled his money.
I`m also pretty sure that the safety patrol will be looking at his rigs pretty close next season. He`s pretty well pawned himself.

Pretty dumb to take 4 trucks to the ice road w/o servicing them first. One of his rigs was down because of a gummed up air valve that was affecting the brake system iirc.

Doing a little maintenance before going up there would have made him a lot more money.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Last episode....

Hughs drivers went to the Dispatch Shed and inquired....

"Are there any Nuns here we can date?"

"No!!" said the dispatcher.

"You mean there are no 4 foot tall Nuns here?" Said Hughs Drivers. Hiding laughter.

"NO!!! Not within a Thousand Miles!!!" said the Dispatcher.

"You mean there's no 4 foot Nuns within a Thousand miles of here?" Again inquired Hughs Drivers... now snickering loudly.

"NO Dammit there are NO 4 foot Nuns within a Thousand miles of here!!!!"



I think you know the rest of the Story....
