    Good to hear you are getting some miles. I just e-mailed Cindy in recruiting after seeing that the website shows Chickasha,OK as a dedicated location. (Family Dollar)
    I should be back by the 5/13.

    If you go back thru these Arnold threads, there was a group in orientation that had all been promised "Texas Tour". During orientation, they were told it was full and they would all be SW regional, so most bailed and went home.

    anj, what's the scoop on the Lkam trucks? I'm wondering what to expect to see at the GP yard.

    Most of the old ones are gone. Still a few Colombias floating around. Mostly the new Pete's and Intls we bought last year are the majority. But the 100 or so we have aren't much to Arnold's fleet so you don't see them often.

    They unretired (arnold) a lot of their 2009 387's. One of the guys I worked at link with and one of my students got one.

    Word is they are equipping new trucks with apus when they buy more. Next wave of trucks are going to be Arnold buying their own as opposed to leasing them from USX. I will say the one thing Tennex did great for us at Link was buy some sharp trucks and equip them with APUs. The new trailers we got were sharp as well, air slide tandems and auto inflation on tires. Hopefully they keep it up here at Arnold. Tennex has shown every effort to break Arnold away from USX. I think USX will always have some stake in Arnold, they pretty much handle everything. I see a major headache if Arnold attempts to do payroll themselves.

    I road-tested in a 387, but was glad they put my wife & I in a T660. Are we 100% e-logs now?
