    The trucks are governed at 65, but what they actually will run, you want know until you get behind the wheel. We do have a tendency to be on the heavy side

    They should put me on Michael's board. He takes over Jim's board when Jim is off and he seems to be quite a bit more on the ball about things.

    if you run the west coast regional do they tend to keep you on it or do you have to switch between that and 48 at all?

    The reason why they always need help is because they are mostly long haul and there is to much local milk companys in the area..Ruan is one of the highest paid.. I am now working for Ruan and befor wDT and Ruan pays the most..

    i would prefer to stay on the west side of the rockies but if i had to i wouldnt mind coming east. im running all 48 right now with a flatbed and i dont mind it except for the part where i have to tarp and untarp in the snow. plus i feel tanker would be easier otr than flatbed but ive been wrong before

    it's not hard to find a job that's easier than flatbed...write the names of every reefer, dry box and tanker company you can think of on little pieces of paper and glue them to a dart board, throw a few darts, and each piece of paper you hit is a company that has something a lot easier than flatbed.

    Can anyone help me on this? I finally moved back to Florida (Inverness), and frequently ride through Wildwood. I've lived here most of my life but recently lived in PA for a while, about 4 or so years ago on what would be the west side of the truck wash they fenced off the area and built a barn, and before I knew it trucks were hauling in there and pumping something in to the ground, or maybe they were loading? I've been back about a week now and rode by tonight and saw an IRT day cab in there, so what the heck is the place, and what are you loading or unloading?
