<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mydogIzzy, post: 5063748, member: 165309&quot;]Fuel surcharge is garbage now but with the discounts in fuel no complaints with that. </p><p>Never coming down to walmart Brookhaven MS again,told them to make a note of it sitting here two days now for an empty.</p><p>I didn&#039;t realize that you had to sit here and watch them put a trailer against the dock and then go sit in front of it like you&#039;re claiming property. ########.</p><p>Not only that I sat for 21 hours on a dispatched load that came here and it wasn&#039;t even ready and they&#039;re only going to pay me 11 hours detention. They said they&#039;re going to pay me for my time here but I doubt it.</p><p>Trucks are castrated at 65 but after six months and an average of 10000 miles, you can bump it up to 67.</p><p>Even at 65 mph my average is 6.3 miles per gallon. 2016 Freightliner dd13 ####s all over itself up a hill even with an empty trailer. I won&#039;t even get into the &quot;on guard&quot; crash avoidance system it&#039;s garbage.</p><p>Very few light loads everything seems to be 40000 + heaviest one I pulled, load of beer 48000 + including dunnage.</p><p>Anything I pulled out of GP has been 44000, big rolls of paper no paper cups or paper plates. P&amp;G has lighter loads</p><p>I can go home and stay as long as I want but when you leave the house you don&#039;t get paid empty miles.</p><p>If you stay too long and don&#039;t save settlements&nbsp; to pay for your &quot;rental&quot; during your home time, when you leave out you will haul freight for free until you catch up.</p><p>Maybe dedicated is ok but I&#039;ve spoke with several them and they&#039;re not doing much better. They have lost accounts.</p><p>Maybe things will get better if the freight picks up but with fuel prices as low as they are, not anytime soon.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
