    They must've kicked Ruan to the curb. We stopped going to fair oaks right after I started at IRT the first time and that's who took over. Oh well.

    There was a Ruan day cab shuffling trailers when I was there.

    I almost came to Indian River once a short time back because they were looking for a driver or two to just shuttle loads from the TA in Pembroke, NY, to the Toronto metro area...No big deal to me because I live near that TA and Toronto and back 2-3 times a day is all I pretty much do now and at the time I was talking to IRT. I got scared away from some of the previous threads on this site about IRT and some bad experiences told to me by other semi-reliable drivers, so i didn't think I could trust the River...I really value the opinions of CYANIDE, WYSCOB, and the GROUNDPOUNDER...However, I'm glad to see you guys are happy and doing well. Great thread!

    I live near that TA and Toronto and back 2-3 times a day is all I pretty much do now , The BORDER and TRAFFIC GODS must be on your side to crank out 500 to 750 miles a day on that run with some of the recent tye ups on the QEW

    It's mostly two round trips per day...And most of the guys reading this thread would consider the Toronto-metro area "Toronto". I guess I should have said: I CROSS THE BORDER GOING TOWARDS TORONTO 2-3 TIMES PER DAY. Sometime, I make a delivery in St. Catherines or swap trailers in BEAMSVILLE. Does that meet with your approval, Mr. Flatbed Supertrucker Maestro Extraordinare? ;-)

    Does that meet with your approval, Mr. Flatbed Supertrucker Maestro Extraordinare? :wink: No need to be a jack### just noted there has been a lot of traffic screwups in that area ( know it well and the distance from Pembroke to Toronto ) so to do 2 or 3 rounders into TORONTO from Pembroke NY as you originally posted not just 2 in the DIRECTION of TORONTO as you correct it to you were doing good.
