    I have been on these boards awhile and have really enjoyed reading your posts about ABF and trucking in general. Finally decided to start posting, maybe I can do some good too.

    Absolutely. We all try to do our part around here. And we do it for free, unlike certain YouTube personalities. Lol

    Zero percent intro balance transfer if credit cards still do that, usually good for 6 months to a year. At 3 months to go, apply for a new card with zero percent intro balance transfer rates and move it over before the real interest would start.
    Usually a few bucks to transfer.

    No way I would put a vehicle on a revolving line instead of an installment line. No sense in eating up utilization if I didn’t have to.

    To the SAIA Drivers, what is your honest opinion on the driver facing camera's? Should it be a deal breaker? Anyone run Systems on the East coast? I would like to get your take on working for them. Thanks for any help you can give! Be safe!

    The camera is what it is and I knew that when I applied. I’ve been at Saia a little over a year and I’m happy.
    Is it perfect? Heck no but I have no plans of going anywhere else.

    I don’t find the camera to be that big of a deal and you’re paid well to deal with them and drive in the parameters that they want you to.

    I like it at my barn. Tm is solid, leads by example. I’m enjoying my time here.

    I love when people ask about “east coast” like it’s a regional area. Care to narrow down what area you’re interested in between Miami and Boston?

    Like the "Midwest." Iowa? Nebraska? Chicago? St. Louis?

    Just wrapped up a 3200 mile week with only a handful left on my 70, then I remembered the new payroll week started on Thursday. Oh well.

    Zero stress, pressure and best of all... dock work.
