    Q: What is the speed of the Con-Way T/L trucks? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Also, are you guys mainly back N.E. or do you run West too? Can one get a balanced 'all over the USA' runs? thx in advance.

    Well Pete, I just was wondering how fast they are governed. No trick question. lol. Speed "doesn't matter" Really?? It does on my spaceship! 60mph won't get as many miles in the day as 65mph. (thanks for coming up with solution to my question, too, btw) So, you don't get any miles? Is that your inference? dang... sorry to hear that. I've applied at T/L, too.
    I do want a fast truck. I want a 75 mph truck. For those big Western runs, right? Ain't gonna happen. I saw one company that goes 60 mph at a certain pay scale, or you could choose 65mph at a lower pay scale. The slower one still isn't as good as T/L pay scale. Go figure.
    Slap me around...'what does speed matter'. Hmmm... It matters in 40+ more miles per day, is what it matters, above the 60, 62, mph trucks. Then again if you properly use 'warp drive' you won't have to worry about it.
    Where is Counselor Troy when you need her?? :biggrin_25523:

    Oh I get my miles here and I go 75 out here. We get paid before load delivers lol so that helps with miles. Ps if u got a space ship can I use it lol
