    Remember, the crappier and older the truck you get, the quicker yours gets retired for a new one.

    Tidbit info for anyone that gets a new truck. You'll have issue with your fuel cards the first time. Comdata doesn't recognize anything less than 3 digit odometer readings. So call the link comdata number and keep them on the phone until it works. Once you get 3 digit readings your fine.

    Yep, truly my empty. I have the empty move dispatch to get the specific trailer. It was grabbed at Toys R Us. I know why. Roller floor trailer specific for load I'm picking up. Bickering stopped when others saw what kind if trailer it was.

    Family as in spouse and kids? If you're working spouse and your employer offers insurance, you can't be on plan, but kids can. That's the new insurance laws. Otherwise, kids is about $80/week and family about $100/week. New insurance rates next month with new insurance plan. It will be less for better coverage.

    Thanks for the information. It will be family coverage as I do not work. Do you know how long you have to work there before insurance begins?
