    They are now requiring Any ic that's bringing a truck on from the outside must have some kind of collision avoidance system approved by Schneider on their truck or they will not be able to be leased on... more garbage

    I just came across a Schneider Terminal off of Kostner in Chicago a couple days ago. I always thought Gary, Indiana was Schneiders Chicago Terninal or OC.

    Frankly it's a bunch of nonsense... No the only company in this industry that I know is requiring this mess... Somehow the bean counters think that collision avoidance systems will 100% prevent collisions...

    Yep. Always the better paying ones are the ones that disappear from favorites and sometimes reappear. They must know when they're marked as favorites.

    Went back to get it....I now have heard it all. Just take the truck and go to new place. Sure would I/we all like a jazzy new something sure. But I took the Freightliner with me zero issues except the factor defect on the bad injector right off the bat....

    Can someone explain the process of taking the truck somewhere else? I plan on calling my rep monday but I'd like a heads up, I've heard 2 truck payments what else is there? And would they be ok with a small company, im just trying to get a strategy together incase it comes to that.
