    well said;to some of us it is a good thing because its guaranteed money.no hassle no fuss.to those that have been here its probably a scarey prop because u could stand to lose.but i dont see them sitting someone after they reach 2300 miles.they cant make any money when we sit.the only thing i see anyone loseing is the layover and detention which is made up on the guarantee.everything else stays in place,which is my understanding.what brought this on was drivers cosistantly getting over 3000 miles while some were getting under 2000 miles.the ones getting under 2000 miles were quiting.so don came up with the plan to keep things equal and stop the revolving door.planners do seem to have their favorites.its been that way everywhere i've been.but u have a good point some people buy into what ever comes down the pike...efon though is not one of them for sure...i dont see what is so bad about guarenteed money

    Picked up Trailer 2014 in Holcomb.
    Had to play with the Tandems will need to get that fixed one of the Pins was disconnected.

    Oh and the Keyboard and Touchscreen quit working on the Qualcomm.
    After Unplugging it /trying to force a reboot the Screen won't come back on at all now.

    did you take the last empty trl when you went to Holcomb? Lol. Either the trl's in Denver are loaded, getting loaded, or red tagged. Need a empty in the mining so I can go to Holcomb and pick up my load. Don't think they will be happy if I just bobtail to Tyson.

    Well that was yesterday, but I think so.There were 2 that needed Repairs of some sort.
    And one of the 'New' Prime Trailers that had a Gladhand Lock, think Mike might have been saving it for something.

    I did pay for that though.This QC thing is a huge pain in my...
    Played with the Tandems on this trlr forever as well.
    Had to drive around the Lot there in Holcomb just to find a dry spot so I could get under the trlr without getting wet lol.
     
    Daniel.trawick Thanks this.

    Text Mike and no extra empty trl's in Fort Collins. So I'll head back to Denver in the am. Double check the two red tags but being they are extra lease trl's they are either going to be put out of service or might not be able to get fixed at a T/A. But will check out. Need a trl badly. I think the planners need to make sure that there is emptys at the yard when they tell you to drop your loaded and pick up another load.
