    You got something causing that. I've ran Michelin steers for years and never had a problem. Not saying anything bag about Bridgestone, they are a good tire. But the Michelins are also good. Something is up with the truck ruining the tires.

    Edit to add: and nothing wrong at all with just changing one tire if the other is still in good shape. Just put the new one in the right side to compensate for the crown of the road.

    By committing to a load doesn't mean you are accepted on it, this helps you know to keep looking. Just a help to let you know you may not get the load. Helps speed up the process.

    That is what caused it, running out of balance with that chunk of mud

    So how do we look for LTL loads now? Please tell me I'm missing something and I don't have to go city by city.

    WTF? OK so if I pick say OKC I'm not limited by 500 miles anymore? Why the heck do I have to jump threw hoops? Sorry I'm just really frustrated with this circus I use to love.

    Thanks.

    You're limited on distance? I can search 7000 miles if I want, but I don't drive in Europe and assume we don't have many customers there so I usually don't
