    Make sure to keep us posted. There's always great debate on how things go at Mercer. Would be nice to see how it goes for someone rite from the start.

    I assume you've read all the dos and don'ts in the 400+ page Mercer thread.

    Make sure you look your truck over real good, backup lights and all. Most people never ask questions if there moving to fast ask questions better to ask now than later also if you get there early talk to other drivers you'll learn lots from other drivers......good luck

    there never has been any great debate, and there are several who have posted from the start, bad monkey being one.

    No. I bailed on Covenant. Consider F2F but I don't know enough to be dealing with brokers and to broke to whether the learning curve. It holds my attention for placing trucks there.
