I have a reefer and generally run from MN to IL/IN and that area. It has been crappy the past few weeks. Scary part is the slow season hasn't...
I am about as anti-Trump as one can get but this isn't his doing. Combine the 4% increase in trucks since Spring with inflation and things are...

Dang!! Does Halvor get better pay in reefer over time? I started with Roehl almost 2 years ago and was at $.34 right after completing their...

I don't know if this will help you, but I checked with an insurance agent where I live and getting my radius cut to 500 miles from my truck...
I live in Duluth (have for a few years) and didn't know about a couple of the companies mud mentioned. I drive as an Owner Operator (NOT Lease...
