    Yes, that is probably the case, I used to have a 2005 century class and I could haul 47K to 48K pound loads. I just got a 2011 with the Bergstrom NITE Phoenix cooling unit and I picked up a load that was 45080 pounds according to the customer's scale and my gross weight was 78900 pounds.

    1. Gym may be an over-statement but certain facilities have "areas".
    2. Yes.
    3.Generally that's about right. Things go wrong occasionally that mess that up, for the most part there or better.
    4. 20-odd dollars if your single non-smoker 40-odd dollars if your an single smoker.
    5. Usually they are good about the home time. However; this is an trucking company and the "needs of the business" sometimes take precedence over home time.
    6. You must do your best to have your time of arrival accurate the more accurate you are the better chance of you being preloaded before you arrive at your next stop.

    That makes me mad that drivers with little skills get newer trucks.

    I went through most of last winter without a working bunk heater and spent quit a few nights in well below freezing temps without any problems keeping warm. But then again, I guess I'm weird. Cold weather only bothers me if I'm working, not while sitting. Hot weather only bothers me when im sitting, not while I'm working.
