    Soooo....

    Anyone get a chance to listen to the conference call?

    There a recording somewhere (unedited?)

    Was too busy trudging up 35 to listen

    Guess my guy got arrested in mexico or somin.
    Never showed up.

    Got me a load for chicago instead for Monday.

    Don't think I'm doing the main Durant casino for parking wsop event is going on. Choctaw too it shall be. $5 burger basket & don't forget happy hour.

    I listened to parts of it, but didn't like most of what I heard.

    200 new Cascadia Evolutions, 200 new T660s, and 200 new Volvos -- all autoshit 6x4 with various electronic safety nannies. 10 Prostars with their new SCR maxxforce. From these they'll get a baseline of which tractors have lowest overall operating cost and order those for 2015

    If you get upset with hold time, you probably need more patience. But you can ask to speak to a supervisor if you want to complain.

    They are still studying compensation. Still. They have a rough plan now. They are going to get back with their focus groups to see what drivers think. Don't hold your breath

    Fuel mileage bonus? See above.

    Lack of preplans? Preplans are an important part of our business. (dodge question much?)

    Drivers wanting mobile app to check pay/mileage: go to driver dashboard/connection instead

    Dirty/broken trailer? Call ops & report it, they'll deal with the customer or prior driver.

    Hard to get home on time: Home time is important for our drivers and we continually strive to do better

    Aww shucks I missed the call in thingy.
    To much of a distraction.
    Heading south. Hopefully to warmer weather.
    Hate to be headed back into Illinois. Snow event this weekend. Weather Channel folks already getting worked up. And last snow hasn't even left the northeast.
    2014 resolution. Won't be driving in snow for 2015.
    Oh yeah. A Shiney new 2014 Harley is on the resolution list too.

    I'm starting school the 13th....hope it all doesn't change too much before I get there to join you guys.

    Is there a link online where you can listen to the conference call or is it company proprietary?

    Hung out @ the Waco pilot for old times sake.
    Scooted through Dallas without any slow downs.

    New stadium looks real nice....but where's the parking o_O

    Called it quits @ the big casino.

    Packed on a Friday night bet there are some nice hooters to look at. Wouldn't know. Don't gamble. ....don't have money to gamble with. I work @ Conway truckload. Boom. Boom. Tish!

    I only wave on local roads and us highways.

    Tell me I'm number 1.

    Go ahead.

    2012 mpg with cat engine- 7.2 YTD
    2013 mpg with Cummins engine 6.6 YTD.

    Let's trade this sucker in for a detroit...guess they weren't kidding bout reducing empty miles.

    Cool, putting my problem solving skills to work. Assuming I stopped for my break 6 hours by you, and I'm 220 miles from hwy 69, that being a US hwy, I should see you waving to me around Muskogee.
    Also assuming Joplin doesn't find my equipment broke, and I wake up in 3.5 hours.
    My Detroit Series 60 average was 6.6 over its lifespan, it had series dpf problems, on good days was well into the 7's, on bad days that would take weeks to fix, was into 5's. On its worse days would still pull a hill A apu truck too, took forever to get anybody to realize there where major issues with the devil truck. .
    This DD-15 stays in the 7's and is a hill pulling beast.
