FCC--Fremont Contract Carriers

I don't know this guy has been in the dock for at least an hour

 

Probably forklift problems saw a forklift repair truck leave awhile ago.

 

I got a Richardson going to cb LOL.

 

Just finished paying for the truck I bid on at the auction on the Detroit engines does our shop do the overhead or is there a shop recommended so I can get that preventative maintenance done. Also how much does a full set of tires cost with our discount It comes with recaps of course going to run those maybe a few weeks until I make some money will post a picture after it gets decaled.

 

Heads up Chris, General Mills is considered a live unload for the time being, having trouble getting empties. So the time on your dispatch is your appointment time.

 

Just learned that FCC has a lot of employees that came from Werner, including Tim McCormick. Interesting tidbit of info that I didn't know

 

I learned that at orientation last year it isn't a bad thing.

 

As for Pm's and most repairs they will, only thing they won't touch is our tires and windshield, they'll sell you a windshield, gotta call third party company to change it. Both shops have been backed up lately, if you call in advance you can probably get put on a schedule. As for tires, you'll get they're national account discount price, whatever it is at the time. Matt could tell you the exact current prices. You can go to any tire shop, doesn't matter what price they quoted you, as long as they know to bill the national account, you'll see the discount after FCC sends your invoice. I got new steers a few months ago and I want to say it was around $120 or so per tire cheaper than Love's quoted. So don't freak out when the shop tells you a different price than Matt does. Whatever they tell you in person is their retail price. Good luck to you

 

So, last week I had a turn signal out on my truck, one of the front ones above the headlight. I figured no biggie, pop the hood to take it out and see what bulb it takes....that's when I realized... it's a sealed LED, so you can't change the bulb, the whole headlight assembly has to be replaced!!!.. just got the bill for it.. $571, great design idea freightliner!!

 

They'll be aftermarket ones eventually probably fixing that issue hopefully
