    You wouldn't think so, but sometimes I wonder. It is pathetic, some of the riff raff this industry attracts nowadays....

    I was in louisville Tuesday evening and Wednesday and I'm still shocked at the not taking a shower crew. I don't know.

    yep, I booked one this morning for Monday. Guess I better look at the truck sometime this weekend. Pack up my winter gear and such. I'm sure it's cold up north by now.

    I'm glad you said something. All my cold weather gear is packed away at my mom house. Guess I'll make a trip out there before I leave. After I deliver I AL I got a reload headed for Illinois

    I don't see how guys sleep in their bed without showering. I understand getting loaded/unloaded in the middle of nowhere and out of hours but those guys that's go 3-5 days without showering is disgusting. And to come to Louisville with free "clean" showers is insane. I always shower and wash clothes when I get through Louisville

    You definitely have your niche. Buying a flat has been one of the best investments I've ever made. For now. Lol

    Not good enough in my opinion. Just not worth the hassle. Was a load posted all week paying 2.20 mile going to Quebec. Why bother with that when I can make just as much and never leave the states? Nothing against Canada, but fact is border crossings are a pain in the rear.
