    It's not unusual for a carrier to be blacklisted by companies like Amazon, so they just change decals before they go into the gate to pickup or deliver.

    Ha! I never got a straight answer on that, could you pee in the DEF tank? What is DEF anyway? It's 32% urea( a waste product the body makes) and 68% ionized water. Sounds close enough to pee to me after a ball game,, and the amazing part, you have to pay for that crap. Fascinating

    Um, no. DEF is synthetic urea. Human urine contains all kinds of nasty stuff and is NOT the same thing.

    Used to, when you worked for a company, and you hauled for a broker, you had to go their office, log 1 hour on duty, they’d give their signs and stickers, and you’d better fuel before hand or they’d get fuel reciept, then when trip was over come back to office, and show another hour to break contract.

    If you’d screwed up on log, or any paperwork, they wouldn’t pay you.
