Load tore up and destroyed tarps... what next

They are taking care of me

 

Hey as long as they’re a much more trustworthy bunch than this lot I’m with; I gotta say I like my DM now, dude’s been alright by me for the most part after I got my ac working

 

DSV actually has a decent lease purchase. You drive for a percentage of the line haul, and your paycheck is based on mileage. So, no matter what, if you run, you get a paycheck. And your truck gets paid. No snowballing of payments just because you went home.

 

Yeah i pay myself 30% of linehaul. I get 75 of linehaul, everything else is 100% to the truck. All the profit for the month goes towards the truck payment. Which kinda sucks, but at the same time makes me work harder. And makes it easier when the truck breaks or u wanna spend a week or 2 at home. Definatly a great company to lease to as an owner operator . We got all kinds of open deck freight. They done nothing but treated me well and gave me the opportunity to learn the business. Still wouldnt recommend a lease purchase deal, but its definatly one of the better programs out there.

 

Hell I gotta say I like running out West after Utah, so I might stay OTR and have to check out this feller’s company

 

I think we need a thread on more trucker vocabulary because I have no idea what “linehaul” means

 

That just means what the load pays from point a to point b

 

West coast freight sucks for flatbed . Its tough until u meet the right people. Even then, still tough. would be working the midwest if it wasnt for the rock loads. Cuz there aint #### out here , especially if u dont wanna run cali

 

Idk which is worse, Arizona or California; I’d take New Mexico, Nevada and everything up
