I'm not going to defend this mentor on hygeine issues and what not but as far as hos goes; as a driver ur not going to be paid for on duty time....
Onc, the only terminals you can be out of now is Gary and phx. The term ur based out of won't affect ur hometime or anything of that nature, it's...
Lol I don't do fb for the extra cash. I do fb because I love it. There's more benefits as well besides the extra money; we have mostly open...
Lol you Steve, been a long time. How's vans treatin ya?
Witchy, yep that's the typical eastern triangle (that doesn't exist btw). Coil to Laredo, cat load or frame rails to nc or sc, chassis load to IN,...
I just found it surprising is all. Any other areas we know of diesel? I get asked about swift flat all the time, this is good info to know.
You would think we would have fber's out of there. Depending on where u live u could always swing through home with a Laredo run from Gary area?
Moose, my mentor had one and it didn't seem like it kept stuff cool enough. He threw stuff out a lot. My ice chest keeps my meats cold and if I...
I'm not defending obesity in the trucking profession but I think that a lot of the problem also is food cost. A hamburger is $1 but a salad is $5....

Sweet. Where do I sign up to get a test truck hehe
I hope swift fixes it when you mention it but they have a tendency of not fixing it unless a drivers in it. Why don't u get it fixed? Ur averaging...
With it being a flatbed truck, it's not as easy to get a dif one, but I had my old truck for 9 mos with no problems and while getting a b service...
He took a leave of absence. The truck broke down 500 mi down the road and had to go into the shop for 3 days. I hadn't used the ac till a couple...
That's awesome Steve. I'm in northern ky right now and I hear ya on the heat. My ac's broken till I can get through a terminal and get it fixed. I...
Oh it's no small issue. It's 90 here with 96% humidity, and the last driver that had this truck had the same attitude. I'm getting it fixed ASAP...
