    Brown Line, part of the Lynden Transportation family. We do LTL team driving and it is a great company! I have been here for 9 months and love it even though it is the slow time of year I am busy with one OTR run a week then fill in the rest of the week with local work. If you live in northwest Washington check us out we are based in Mt. Vernon.

    Northern ON, Canada. Lots of LTL flat bed work for me. MIGHT get one full load every week or two. LTL and the amount of drops is where the $$ gets really good for me though. Sometimes a pain in the rear with having to move/take off/put on tarp 3-4-5 times in a day mind you. Got a bunk on truck but usually make it home every night.

    Ouch. I know it's like anything and you figure it out over time but I lived in Pittsburgh for 4 years and still could figure out how to get around it. I could always see where I wanted to be but just couldn't get there. And that was in my pickup.

    I can't say how much I love it. Single screw with 2 24's. I did local with that. Leave one, unload one. Pick the other up, unload 4-5 tons of weights for Play it again sports. No fork lift. I could tear a wall down. :) Long time ago. Wife loved it. No fat truck driver. The rest is not for this forum. :)

    You do get somewhat use it, but there are good days and bad depending on which side of town your running. We dont run pups like a lot of companies do, all 48's with lift gates for the most part, so south side can be a little trying on a Fri afternoon. But if you can do P&D in Pittsburgh, everything else is a breeze...:biggrin_2556:

    I don't get it. You go from Youngstown to Pittsburgh with a load and then do P&D for a few hours and then go back to Ohio??
