Random LTL Rants (all are welcomed)

Last 2 wheel load with Mclane. Hopefully last time I touch a 2wheeler. Had the easiest run this weekend. 1400 miles for 89 cases. Lol. Now I’m unemployed this week til Monday when I start linehaul.

 

I saw a bunch of McLane's today I was behind one this morning. One of there units in the convenience store "grocery" division they were busy delivering to all the convenience stores.

 

Had 29 deliveries. Of course didn't do em all, but scored two extra hours today

 

Yeah, I don't miss throwing cases - just stay on good terms so you can always go back. I'll never throw cases unless I get laid off and another 2008 happens.

 

15 deliveries and 10 pickups. And then a switch to top it off. Well 11 pickups but one didn’t have freight. I like days like that. Keeps me busy.

 

I had 12 stops for 526 cases. I was leaving my last stop at noon it was nice.

 

Yeah it wasn't a lot, but I had to call each person before the delivery to let them know that I'm coming. Then they were watching me operate the liftgate... pain in the butt.

What kind of cummins you've got? My truck is horrible on gas mileage, but it gets the job done in the snow and some mild offroading plus it's manual.

 

Which division pays the most in food service?

 

I got a chance to ride this brand new Kenny today after P/D to do some swaps.



2019 with less than 2000 miles on the clock. Compared to some of our 1 million mile Volvo trucks that we have this thing rides like a Caddy. It has cummims x15 efficiency series motor. It pulled nicely up the hill with 29k lbs in the trailer. Unfortunately it's an automatic

I wonder how much does trucks cost. They are packed with all kinds of driving nannies. It has following distance system and when you get close to the shoulder it starts beeping. A blind man could drive one of those lol
