    You will need to speak with someone in truck pay. They handle the fuel cards. After they explain to you how it works, ask to be transferred to the insurance department so they can explain bobtail insurance to you.

    If you run your own plates, you also have to file your own IFTA. Honestly with mercer actually paying any IFTA. Shortage you would have to be a nut to run your own plate, unless someone didn't plan on staying. But after filing my IFTA for years. And dealing with irp , to heck with that

    Friends don't ask friends to help them move. Swing by a labor ready about 830 am. Lots of willing labor with no work available.

    That's truck drivers in general. Some are clueless yet they act like experts. Last weekend at the yard some guy was convinced you can change a ten speed into a 13 just by changing a switch on top of the tranny to access extra gears. I tried to explain to him he was thinking of a 9 speed how you can change the back half or and put the back of a 13 on with the split gears on the high side. But note he went on with some study how the mega he used to drive fire turned their tens into 13s just by changing a switch. Funny stuff.

    Spyder, he was almost right . Swift and another mega speced the l/o trucks as 13 speed but set up as a 9 speed . They can be converted to a 13 speed with a $300 parts kit that among other pieces iincludes the extra shifter range switch .

    And yes I can factually back this up; I'm driving one .
