I get paid .42 mer mile at my company for all loads. My regular loads are 2200 mi. I run CA-WI
Another mega coolie carrier in the works
They're ok if you don't mind being micromanaged to death, like being told how long you can stop or where you can do personal essentials like...
There's another outfit in Palatine that's just as bad- Prime Freight Inc. run by Europeans
Why does the FMCSA allow dirtbags like this to operate??
For the amount of propane required for a camp stove, placards and a hazmat endorsement are not required, otherwise everyone picking up the 20lb...
Yep. They even called me at home and said I'd have to come back early or my truck would be slip seated for three days. They don't understand or...
Mine's a 2012 and it has the battery system. I've only seen Carriers on the Robinson trucks
Yes they do, the days you don't use add up. I can bank up to three weeks vacation, but if I'm going t be off more than two weeks I have to turn in...
I was on that fleet and was lucky to get 1800 miles a week, and the main dispatcher was a micromanager
It is out of Indianapolis, at the corporate campus. That's all I've heard at the moment. They're working on a new building for the school that...
We've just started a new driver school
I don't consider an extra set of batteries an apu. They should've gone with TK tripacs- a lot more bang for the buck. I've had more issues with...
Good deal! Hope Landstar treats you well. I've heard good things about them. My last 6 mos at GTI I was lucky to get 1800 miles a week
Good luck. I hope it works out for you there. Before I parted ways there was quite a lot of 'micromanaging' going on. They'd tell me he long of a...
Really- looks like they've changed since I left. It was one of the ops managers who told me to 'chain and go', to get the load there on-time no...
As far as real APUs, a mechanic at Indy told me they take them off and sell them. I believe it as I've seen lots of trucks in the yard that have...
I too know how, when and when NOT to chain. GTI tried to tell me their 'policy' is "if the road is open, you are expected to chain and push thru...
And I've noticed that the Maxxforce doesn't have the low end oomph that the ISX15 I had a few years ago did
I felt the same way my first 2 1/2 years at Gordon. Then they started bringing in operations people from big companies like Swift and JBHunt and...
