    i do rather good on miles i think. i average about 2000 a week. average trip is about 300 - 500 miles, and then the dead head miles which varies from trip to trip. but yeah they do have the miles if you want them, just ask your dispatcher.

    Which part of jersey you delivering to? I'm delivering to Savage, MD 8 am Monday morning. Thanks for the compliment on the truck, she still needs some work but its gonna take a lot of elbow grease. I got my tanks, wheels, grille all polished. I used neverdull on the tanks and I used blue magic on the wheels and grille. It took me a total of about 5 hours for the outside and inside

    From past experiences on this forum, I would suggest sharing your truck number by PM. If you don't have 50 posts, you can PM any MOD or the Admin to relay your PM. Companies do watch this site, so just a fair warning.

    *the 50 post rule is because of spammers.*
     
    JohnBoy and The Challenger Thank this.

    Thank you guys for the info... truck looks great hope i can get mine cleaned up pretty fast after i start...people thought i was nuts polishing the tanks on my barr nunn ride but i like my truck to look nice even though it was a plain company truck.. guess it is a matter of pride.... Not really worried about road test just never drove an automatic before not going to know where to rest my hand now... hahahahae.. hopefully i get to meet all my new friends on here in the future

    the road test will be on the 10 spd. but then you will most likely get assigned one of the autos after that. we have 2 types of them, with & with out the clutch.... my truck dont really show that much of anything since i have full fairings on it. but if u wanna try something for the back, try the bug & tar remover. my history with that stuff has worked well. just takes a while if its really bad(like mine). umm i have to deliver in bridgewater, nj in the morning

    Believe it or not pledge works awesome on taking grease off of the back of the truck... found that out doing yard jockey work... got grease on the lines then my pants.. sprayed pledge on and the grease wiped away... the cheap dollar store polish works doesnt have to be pledge....

    Ok cool thanks for the info. Mine doesn't have the last fairings on either side, and mine doesn't have a clutch. Its just great though, I get the truck all cleaned up and they are callin for 1/2" rain the next 3 days :(

    thats the other reason why i havent cleaned it up yet. RAIN! i have seen so much of that this past week that my truck is due for a bath from all the mud it has caused! The back half of the truck is getting pretty bad... will have to try that pledge theory though as far as cleaning the back half of the truck.
