    It won't take long until you have to have a reefer running to sleep. You watch. If you go from reefer back to dry van, you'll look for a reefer to park next to so you can! :biggrin_25520:

    Well it's official got off the Canada fleet yesterday got a chance to talk to my new dm. They sounded like they know what they are doing I'm currently under load from Canada that will deliver this morning in Portland so we will see what I get after that. May already have a preplan haven't turned qc on yet this morning to find out.

    Well it has been awhile since I posted on here but I have been on the US fleet for awhile now and am loving it. No more hassles at the border and my new dm keeps me busy.

    Only problem I am having is with the maintain side of the fleet got inspected at PAC yard and was shut down for a class 3 wheel seal leak(class 3 is oil pouring out) I argued with them about it but after waiting 27 hours to get it in the shop it only took them three hours to realize that I was right there was no leak. O well got my breakdown pay anyway not much but better than nothing. And if that guy ever asks to inspect my truck again I'm gonna tell him to go jump in a lake.
     
    DenaliDad and tow614 Thank this.

    As far as a bunch of short loads I'm not seeing them I've only had one in the last month and it was a local load they needed help with and fm offered load bonus for me to haul it. It was only a 33 mile run. Other than that most have been close to 1000 if not over with a few 300-500 mile loads

    He is on the west coast.. that is the trick.. midwest is another story.. I hate it when I am east of wyoming..

    glad to hear you are doing well. I know the inspection guy you are talking about. He got me one day and took over an hour. I finally complained to his boss and he came out and got on him. At first his boss said he was very thorough but when I told him how long he was taking and my elog was running he came outside.
     
    Newtrucker bak Thanks this.

    I'm still sitting in PB waiting for my first dispatch. At least my truck was ready and I didn't have to motel it another night. But I wouldn't have set the alarm if I'd known...
