Eagle Logistics Services. Indianapolis, IN

Brand new aluminum Benson Flats. 14 strap winches all on one side. Gonna have to transfer 7 to the other side. No steps, and no word on whether any of them will be ordered.

Congrats!!!

Yea, decided to take a look see though. Won't even glance in the future.

Yea, posting to soon didn't feel right but it was tempting, thanks for the advice. I don't mind tarping, it's just hauling out three 8ft drops is a lengendary grade PITA lol! Unless the revenue makes it worth it. But a load that's less than 20ft long 4ft high is easy peezy. I can do those all day. To bad this world isn't perfect though.

 

Anyone? Would like to know before I call recruiting and get fed lies...

 

I have been reading through the thread and am considering applying at Eagle. I have some questions and concerns that I would like to talk to someone about such as load board, pay, DM etc. If any of you would be interested in helping to answer my questions my email is coach1419@hotmail.com if you would email me your number, I would like to call and discuss some of my concerns.

 

I only from what I have read: Cummins, 13, Qualcom, Quality told me the trucks are at 75 but another driver on here reported 63, hopefully that is not the case.

 

Mines governed at 65.....and low 8th gear is governed at 53,lol

 

No load board find your freight and or have your dm do it....

 

The 53 is called gear down protection. I would imagine they would be willing to take that off.

 

Yes 13 speed,primarily cummins engines In almost all the trucks

 

Ok,well it cruises right in the sweet spot so it's not a bad thing....that's what I thought it was governed for...just can't use cruise control in low 8 above that but u can climb in it a lot.....
13speed was hard to get used to at first Cuz most of my loads were Heavy and in the hills now I'm getting used to it....

 

13 speed is the best. Downshift a full gear around 1k-1200 (don't split, like it's a 9 speed), upshift with splits with a MAX of 1400-1500 and you'll see a huge improvement in fuel in all loads. The less you downshift and use the cummins low end torque the better.I used to wait until 8-900 rpms to downshift in mine but find better mileage with a few hundred more RPMs.
