    Lol ! I did a short flatbed run yesterday and realized that I'm going to go back to dry van for exactly the same reasons you've stated. I'm in my mid-forties and , lately, I have to actually push the knuckle of my middle finger into place every morning just so I can move it ! I feel your pain !

    I thought you owned your truck outright? Rebuilt engine and all? Don't even say your talking about Schneider. LOL. If your talking about Schneider, I want you to take a belt sander and turn it on and press it up against your balls.
    What are you going to do with your truck? Wanna sell it?

    I've been here for almost 2.5 years.
    It's been a roller coaster ride but I have been successful..I bought my own truck last December.
    Some of their policies will make you scratch your head but generally you can live with them.
    Depending on the area you live in will determine how well you do.
    Find the lanes that pay and run them hard..make triangles that bring you home when you want.
    But remember they dry up..so be flexible.
    IMO SNI has the best program if you're going to lease a truck.
    You can't be starved out as YOU control everything..except the rates.
    Things are changing here so keep that in mind.

    Good Luck to you with whatever you decide.

    I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it yet Dave .
    Im just starting to explore other options now and am thinking about sni contractor program .
    I'm kind of limited where I am now and want more choices , I've got very little debt and nothing tying me down at home plus I kind of miss the east coast lol.
    But just starting to look now and got lots of time , if I don't find what I like I can stay where I am too.

    Look on YouTube for "sberger6604" & "Jeffrey Like". They are at SNI. Sberger6604 posts videos on getting truck from Schneider Finance & orientation. Jeffrey Like is expert on using their Load Board.
