It's an experienced driver that has had this truck for the past 6 months with no issues. He swears up and down he doesn't ever hill hold with the...
2016 Volvo VNL780, D13, i-Shift, 268K miles. Took the truck to the dealer because transmission was suffering from some rough shifts. They are...
To make the story short, the temp can go 9-10 degrees above the set point before the reefer kicks in on my Carrier X4 7300. My friend's TK only...
It was a while ago, found a much better source.
I was giving advice to the original poster who asked specifically about Iron Capital. I have no problems with cash flow or financing :)
On the West Coast it sure seems like a conspiracy. All of a sudden the boards are full of #### loads for $1.30/mile and when you call in they...
Got no issues with frozen loads with the 7300. I wanted to get a 7500 and what stopped me wasn't the price but availability. Carrier outfits...
You are so full of ####. I don't need welfare, I want the rules to be applied equally to everyone across the board. HOS regulations didn't...
That's understandable, but I'm more interested in OTR mileage :)
I like the level playing field where everyone is forced to follow the same set of rules. I do not want to be competing with idiots that haul...

We always haggle on every reefer load and we get them to come up from posted rate every single time. Sometimes (rarely) it's only a hundred...
Trying to gauge what's considered "normal" for company drivers. Please comment on average duration of your trips, days home, or anything else you...

If the shipper tore the air chute during loading and my driver discovered after unloading, who is responsible and do I have any way to recover the...
We are buying a slightly used truck for 116k and have to come up with 33% down. Still getting 11% interest. That's through ENG. Volvo Financial...
Yes, with net payout of 34k.
Luckily there was no damage on the trailer. To be fair, I can't really blame my partner after getting all the facts. Turns out, about a week...
LOL....I'm not the one asking the question. As a company owner I don't see how anyone can offer this deal. Eating $0.80 on empty miles, paying...
So basically your only major expense is equipment maintenance? Doesn't sound too bad.
