    Well that's one of the biggest problems in trucking. People are afraid to complain or feel like they shouldn't have to. Then they start a storm of negative posts and etc.....

    Many things can be accomplished by picking up the phone.

    I defenately agree with you on this, that's why I did not ask where this co is good or bad for every one expirience is different and as you said going with a close frame of mind will have nothing but bad impact on both parties. I like the fact that is close to where I live and hope to go around my house more frequent than waiting 3 wks befor I see my fam. which in this business is normal. I see you live in Bradenton, I live in Davenport, perhaps one day you,me and shaggy and talk in person.

    I will let you know how things are going and the great thing is that now i know if something goes wrong I have the co personel plus both of you for better advice which in my book makes it a win win situation.

    I guess I missed a lot on these posts, been away from computer for a bit!!! Sounds like Link is trying... Are they still governed at 62?? That is the one thing that has kept me from applying to be honest. Wish you all good luck and will have to check back more often!!!

    Mine is 67 pedal and 64.5 cruise. Some are faster and some slower. They said at orientation that 65 is speed they are looking to govern all trucks. As long as I get my 2000 miles per week and get home when I want, I'm happy.

    To answer getting homr, this load is taking me through house. I deliver in Ft Pierce anytime tomorrow. I'm going to sleep in my bed tonight and deliver my drop/hook in the morning. If they plan me North I'll stop by Lakeland to say hi.
     
    jlind Thanks this.
