    I think the originator of this thread moved on to something else. You might have better luck starting another thread. Good luck to you, I hope everything works out like you plan.

    Advice I got from an old hand, "Hey Buddy. Don't fall off the truck ... it hurts."

    Nope I am the origionator. I still work for Swift I just do not drive anymore so cannot be a valuable contributor.

    I am hoping for someone to step up and get it running again. Especially when this years trucks hit the fleet. They will be extra nice!!

    Hey Schmud, glad you're still lurking in the shadows. I had heard that you weren't driving anymore, but I am glad your still around. I may be looking to join Swift this fall ... not sure yet ... everything's still in flux, but it's a strong possibility. Would be from the Harrisonburg, VA area not my current digs at the Harbor on Cape Cod. :biggrin_25525:
