    HEY chanuprv,,,where ya at?
    I just got home for a couple days and haven't had time to check this site til now. Hope all is good. I doubt there will be an issue but if there is,,,SNI is run by real people that will listen and read between the lines. Don't give up!!! Take it clear to the TOP if ya have to IF you've done nothing wrong.
    Far as my 2nd. round went, it was a long one east, several HEAVY short loads thru MOUNTAINS, then a long lite (10k)one back west. (actually averageing 8.53 mpg on this one) This one is 1700 miles but gave me 5 days to delivery. Brought me thru the house tho for 2.5 days off at home. Just TOLD my ICA (DBL) what I was gonna do and the message he sent back was "10-4". Will make OTD monday in CA and he will shoot me back east. NO complaints on my end. Freight is SOFT right now and fuel is HIGH. Tis the season! Take what they offer you because believe me,,,it ain't better anywhere else. I'm just so happy my ole horse is paid for,and I'm leased to the BEST company out there! I don't know how anyone could pay off a new truck now-a-days with any company and run a household too. Even with SNI unless ya ran team or never went home.

    Hi Two Lane
    I was on the road as well and unfortunatly it didn't work out with SNI but I have leased to a company hauling Automotive freight now strange thing happened this new company did the same medical and it was negetive but few days ago it was positive with SNI medical can't understand. As you said to go to the top if needed but I didn't since truck was sitting and my co-driver was waiting as well so I decided to go with my current company. Pay rate is the same and the one way are the empty racks and other side get autoparts and drop the tailer so far weight wise haven't taken anything over 12000 lbs light loads and better fuel milage so far getting 7.53 per gallon. But soon as I'm back I will go to the top and have a chat with SNI to explain them that something is wrong some where that my test came positive with them and week later when I got another one done it was negative. No complains so far with the new company and getting good miles so far started on 8th and finished on 17th and got about 14500 miles today taking load to Marion IL and will be back tomm and will go to either Memphis TN or Laredo TX will keep posting. Glad to hear you are ding good and getting all the miles. Good Luck with the coming trips.

    Hey teolane how are u doing things were going well till the tsunami in japan and noe toyota is shutting down most of the plants and i think its my luck that every timethings start rolling for me something happens well now once again thinking of moving to general freight and see things go from there. Will call schneider again to see if i can take it up to the higher managment and make things work out there. Be safe out there.

    Been with em 4 months. Finally got fed-up with the east coast shorthauls & shuttle-runs. Got mad in Indy & b/t 1800 miles home. Will pull lease & go back to what I was doing before. SNI is a great company, but I ain't no eastcoast shuttle driver! Didn't work for me this time around. Luck!
