    all scales were OPEN for me. Ran mostly SE. My transponder crapped out last week and waiting for a new one. Great timing. Huh?

    Me & the trainer missed getting stopped during the blitz, but on Thursday we saw a fella getting his front axle rebuilt right there in the rest area on the WV turnpike. Man they had that whole truck torn apart. Parts scattered everywhere. That'll ruin your day, and your wallet I'm sure. We were going to snap a picture, but didn't want any bad juju.

    And worse was a fuel tanker I saw with all 18 tires being replaced in TN. Take the good and bad we are with a good company CSA scores show it only driver related high.

    I second that. It's very beneficial driving for a company with a good reputation. We all see some of the death traps rolling around out there. I feel sorry for some of those guys

    Instead of one wash a month I think they should let you just get 12 washes a year, I went thru winter and didn't get a wash at least 3 months just wasn't worth it seemed to be sloppy, snowy a wash wouldn't have lasted more than a day

    Like that idea, but with me more about time and miles. Will hear plan better but after 13 years clean truck wont last long whats under the shiny matters more if that good will get u farther. Yes DOT looks at dirty trucks but simple things as clean dash, windows and just cleaning off a IFTA goes a long way. As a company our CSA scores low in all areas we just have one that is high deals with speed, seatbelts, lane changes and following to close and guess what state that is? Pulled up CRST they are 95 plus in areas we are 35 or lower.
