    Exactly the reason why I bug my dispatcher about what's next for me. Mine likes to wait until the end of the day to let me know sometimes.

    I vote we get the otr truck division renamed Rolling Roadblock Trucking.
    I got passed by a JB Hunt AND a ROEHL truck today.
    ROEHL. Roll Over Every Hill Last. And they passed me.
    I also enjoy all the dirty looks and people showing me I am number 1 I get in the 70 and faster zones. And yes I'm in the granny lane. It's sometimes granny flipping me off.

    Oh yeah I also forgot. What is up with the temps being off on the load dispatches lately?
    The last 3 I've gotten we're wrong.
    And those guys at Newlywed Foods in Chicago we're not real happy loading a trailer pre cooled to -10 when it was a dry load of flour going on it.

    They did that when I picked up a load there...but they sent me to the cold storage location 1st, then they gave me directions to the dry warehouse. But they didn't mind as much, it was in the middle of the summer and the cold air cooled them off for a few minutes.

    How many chains do I need to have. CR was closed so they will have to reimburse me. Any snow in the "cabbage patch"?

    It frustrates me as well. Of companies I'd consider in our class, we are the slowest. We're even slower than a lot of the mega carriers. I myself get passed by other Magnum trucks. My 15 was faster than this 16 despite supposedly being set the same. For me it's the biggest and for the most part only reminder that Magnum is a starter company.
     
    War Wagon Thanks this.

    3 pairs and a single if I recall correctly. Where are you going? Only area I'm aware of currently with a chain requirement is West of Denver. Everywhere else is 11/1.

    I'm in Sumner WA at the slowest GSF that Ive ever been to. Over an hour into detention already for a dry load of french fry cartons.
    Picking up in Burbank WA tomorrow headed for Smyrna GA.

    I've been cruising at 62 and typically don't see any middle fingers or hear complaints on the CB. I even go 45 through I-80 south of Chicago when it seems nobody else does. The only time I hear complaints from other drivers about my speed is from the bull haulers in 55mph zones. And they can go 'f themselves.
     
    sc00ter, Lowlite and Woobie Thank this.
