    If I had a nickel for every time this white man was called a white man, in not so pleasant terms... I would be retired and living large. ;-)

    I actually took the time to read all of your post, and you were beyond spot on in your evaluation... My thought, this chick ain't worth the time of day. I have posted in regards to customer service, and the BS we put up with out here is beyond the pale... But, us old timers still managed to knock off a carrier of the year award. And there is only 10 of us O/Ops... General Motors was the outfit that gave us that award out of 160 carriers....

    Yes, I am proud of that, and earned every penny. ;-)
     
    Oxbow Thanks this.

    Wow. I’ll bet you’ve seen it all -and lived it all. Not an easy lifestyle - my hat is off to folks like you that can go OTR deal with all that it entails. Plus teaming?’ That’s crazy. More power to you

    The weekend has started. The 'children' have arrived. To post their chaos, deceit, disinformation, strife, conflict, and destruction.

    Well, if you want to do this, there are risks, no matter the engine manufacturer... I like Cummins due to the fact we have the software to work on them. Today's motors are 70% computer and 30% wrench. And I own the wrenches, and the software. ;-)

    Detroit, Paccar and whoever, you are on your own. And my sheet is paid for, not been easy, but since the in frame all is good, and that was two years ago... Knock on wood. ;-) Just tooling down the road making money... ;-)
     
    stacks, Oxbow, SingingWolf and 2 others Thank this.
