    Do those Volvo's have the nanny bs like lane departure warning and automatic braking?

    And how strict are they on the 2 years experience I'm about 3 months shy with clean record

    They are adamant No less than 24 months. but 3 months goes by quickly.

    The automatic braking isn't the worst I've experienced, it yells at you when it thinks you're too close and it aggravates the heck out of me, but i was able to turn the sound off completely on the lane thing.

    They have forward cameras but no driver facing, and they said no sound recording, which is a good thing because Bolt Goat swears like sailor. ")

    As long as there is automotive freight then 12k shouldn’t be a problem. It’s a lot of TX-MI-TX.

    I’m waiting on a truck. They asked me to fly to St Louis to get a new one. I said ok but they don’t want to fly till Monday. We’ll see what they come up with.

    Curses! One of my scans didn't go through. I got a teeny tiny pay check. It annoys me we have to do all the dang office work too. That crap started with the aobrd. Oh well. I love PBJ.

    Steak and lobster next week when that check with the monster miles comes through.

    I wish a paperwork issue was to blame for those $450 checks I got a little while ago. :confused:

    I’ve had that happen. In theory it’s a great idea, scanning from the truck. But having done both I prefer to scan at the truck stop.

    Bolt Goat is keeping a low profile in his new job.

    Bolt Goat said if he is going to play crash dummy, he wants an increase in pay. Or at least more carrots
