Crete Carrier - A Year In Review - Fall 2013 Going Forward

4 hour live unload at Dot Foods Liverpool NY. Their yard is spotless. My trailer was a mess of spilled product when they finished.

 

sorry...deleted...wrong thread

 

Feel like I hit the lottery. Load from central New York to Phoenix AZ. Route includes AZ 377, 277, 260. While not listed as restricted, not highlighted as truck route either. Anybody been that way?

 

Yep, decent route. Been that way a few times. It's been 2 years since I ran it last. Some good grades and usually some road construction. Overnight parked at the Wally in Payson.

 

That's one of those routes that it makes a difference which way you're heading if heavy. Heading west like you are is fine as it's mostly descending. Alot of the famous cartoon type cactus on that route.

 

Im trying to move from Lenoir City..to ANY other terminal..so far no luck....any ideas????

 

I knew a guy that had to quit and redo orientation to go to another terminal.

Also, be an o/o. Then Lincoln will be home terminal.

Can you share why you want to switch?

 

I would rather not say my reason.....

 

I guess the Yusuf message was from a regional AM who hit the wrong button when trying to get a message out to his drivers. Accidently sent it to the whole company. I was asked to consider going regional awhile back and told each region was getting their own AM. Thought I'd wait for somebody else to work the bugs out. Looks like their still working the bugs out.

 

I run out of the Phoenix terminal and I love it. Our terminal staff is great and they'll (not literally but almost) give you the shirt off their backs to help you out. I hear good things about the SLC crew as well and I've never had a problem with them. Of course, to run out of those terminals you'd need to live out west...
