this is the only thing that bothers me about JCT that they give so little time to select a truck that you are going to be paying for,and have to pay for repairs if it does go down, like i said this is the only thing that bothers me

Yup I totally understand. When I started I was fortunate enough to get a trk with only 7000 miles on it cuz my they made me go out with trainer for few weeks cuz I only has 1 years experience at the time. After going out on the road with him for a week we came back and he was able to convince them to give me a newer trk. Even though I still traded it in afer 9 months and 150000 miles on it I traded for the t600 now. I understand the repairs that u have to pay if the trk you pick outta orientation breaks down. Hopefully the one u get will last. U till u trade. Goodluck

I never have, but from what I hear, they are a real P I T A
I have been lucky so far, getting load's out of Umatilla. Been drop and hook so far.
Can't say you don't have enough time to run these loads. Stopped in Lordsburg at the Laundromat,mama did the wash,while I played on the computer and paid some bills. Great little eat place there called "Kranberry's" They have limited truck parking. Great food. Spent 4 hours there doing laundry , shower and food. I am now sitting west of Houston at the rest area(free wifi) waiting for AM rush hour to die down. We will be in Macclenny around 10pm for 5am Wednesday delivery.Should be headed back to Cali around 2pm Wednesday afternoon.
