Parkways Are Bad For Trucks

I guess you haven't noticed that walmart is also quietly shifting over to using plain white trailers? One carrier that I contract with has a few Sam's club dedicated contracts. Those contracts require the carrier to supply their own trailers to service the account.

 

that's actually a very good idea (plain white wrapper), giving the thieves no idea what's inside.

as for supplying their own trailers, many just lease out, like my company did for the longest time, then they bought all new "plain white wrappers"...

 

Yes, the company I'm contracted with is using lease trailers to service the dedicated accounts.

 

it is easier to lease the trailers, until say the next contract renewal with the customer. this way, should the customer decline a new contract, simply return the lease trailers.

we got the "go ahead" for a 6 year contract, just last year i believe, so that's when it made sense to buy new trailers, then if we lose the account afterwards, the company can sell them off and recoup "some" money.

 

Definetly a Western Express tractor. Zoom in & u can see.

 

It's unanimous, 11'2". Sign is way off to the right, visible at night????

 

Must be just 3 years driving Tonka toy trucks perhaps?

 

Doesn't matter. The entrances to the parkway all say NO COMMERCIAL VEHICLES!!! I wonder why.

 

Bwahahaha! (Sorry, have to have a laugh.) Some drivers don't understand what part of the Parkway is good for trucks. Quick quiz: after what exit are trucks allowed on the NJ Parkway? Prizes galore! (Ok, not really! Just an NJ attaboy.)
