    I agree with your comment. However, I am also grinding my teeth in extream anger as I do. I guess it just comes with being an old school grouch, but I would NEVER let a carrier disrespect me that way. A carrier will give me the basic comfort items or I give the keys back to them. I did it, I know where I speak. The thing is the drivers are always stabbed in the back by as you say some desperate driver that will. That thought makes me want to vomit. It is never good when a human commodity does not know or understand it's true worth!

    Tell your dbl the shop told you no. They will get it sorted in a hurry.

    I will add a question - did you tell the shop you were just permanently assigned the truck?

    You are supposed to use the matress as as a box spring for a 3 to 5 inch foam matress.

    Purple is good but too expensive. Pick up the 70 buck 3 inch foam twin at walmart. 3 year warranty. Go big for the 5 inch if you can afford it..
     
    Lepton1, austinmike and SteerTire Thank this.

    Point being it doesn't matter new or used if you top it with good foam as god intended.

    I have the 3 inch blue right now. Tossing it next week though. Best $100 I ever spent.

    Sni doesn't care about you. They don't even equip an APU and won't let you idle. How does that work? Why did you choose Sni? What did they offer to compensate for that?

    All the megas offer a turd but with different shapes and colors. What shape and color you can deal with is what's important. Not cpm or sign-on bonus.
