"Watkins And Shepard In NJ During Jan.?"...

06, most companies like teams for obvious reasons of course, they will get you in a truck and get you rolling, but i bet that if you get a junker, which im sure you wont, but IF you do, run that truck a few weeks, and call them and tell them you need a new one, they are usually pretty good at that.
i have an 04 volvo, and they will have to pry my out of it. i love that truck, its strong, its clean, and its my truck. im not giving it up, * unless its brand spakin new volvo. * duh.

 

S2BT do you have the double wide single tires on your tractor? Just wondering how those hold up. I mean if you blow one your down.

 

no i dont, and i wont....well till they tell me i HAVE to put them on, which i dont think they will make the older trucks get them, but all of the new trucks come with them,
i get mixed reactionjs from them, its about 50/50 on people who like and dis-like em. i pulled a few of our trls that have em and i didnt like them on the trl. so i really dont think id like em on the trk

 

Hey soon2b....i heard you met my husband the other day! How cool! He'll be on the road very soon and is so looking forward to it.....I on the other hand am missing him terribly.

 

indeed i did, nice guy, same as the other guy there with him as well. he said he was from atlanta, and i remembered something about someone from there startin in Jan. he's up where i live, and im on my way to near where you live, just outside atlanta.
youll see him soon, hopefully as soon as he gets his truck they will run him through the house to get the rest of his things... if you are not working. in 90 days u can go with him so long as he keeps the truck/trl dent free

 

All in all it sounds like a great company by todays standards.
We used to describe trucking as endless hours of boredom punctuated by seconds of sheer terror.
