Seems like UPSF kept the Motor Cargo and Overnite thing with the teams, when I went into harrisburg last night they had a ton of team sleepers
I don't see them out here. Only owner operators or bottom feeder companies. They still did teams out of here for a couple of years after the buy outs.
hmmm thought there would be more out there but it is what it is... I will admit I keep looking to see if I recognize any YRC guys if I pass them... I still keep in touch with the guys I made friends with
I see UPSF out here in Reno. their footprint is very light though. Very few sets, everything i see is 53 upsf wagons pulled by sleepers.
I see upsf guys a lot out west running teams. We fuel at the TA in Amarillo and that's a switch point for those guys. I think teams come from Atlanta and meet up with a team from LA and they switch loads there. New bid starts for me next week. Goin home for a couple well deserved days off until new bid starts. Ran into some nasty weather last night in Wyoming on I-80. 3 sisters was a mess so was Elk Mtn and of course Sherman. They had the westbound side closed but the eastbound side was open. Only able to do 25-35 mph for about 50 miles. Very long night.
Wow sorry to hear about your trip home... But at least you made it there OK. We have teams all over, tons in Harrisburg and a few at the mini hubs. To be honest I wouldn't mind trying it out for a year. Figure I only see the woman once a week and during the the week I don't do anything I figure why not. But at my terminal which is an end of line I'll never see it. BTW I've been meaning to ask you where are you going on your bid?
