This week was too stressful. One of my guys overslept four times in one week, missing four appointments, which resulted in two late fees and two...
I average 1250-1600 a month in tolls, total across 3 trucks. It’s the IL and IN tollway that hit me the most.
Usually, I look the day before my delivery in an area. I’ll browse sooner than that and if I see a good one, I’ll grab it. If nothing catches my...
