    hahaha the only thing badazz about it is the hourly rate! I'd much rather be pulling a nice tandem van or deck. I'm getting too old for this shizz.
    I've still got a couple reefers we used for hauling seedlings for reforestation, man that was a nice gig. once times got tough, van rates went to the crapper so they sit parked. used to get some nice runs down to Vancouver Island to the nurseries to pick them up. you could stack a 53' van top to bottom and still only weigh about 60K. swoosh!

    Going good so far. Seems we have alot of west coast freight. The rates im getting is better than whats on any loadboard even only getting 75 percent of it it still better. Ended up sitting before thanksgiving for 2 days due to load cancelling , deadheaded home then sat on monday in phoenix with no freight , which has always been a normal occurance for flatbed. Other than that its going good. Im wanting to work my way into the oversize freight eventually , just trying to make a name for myself in the dispatch office. I told them in orientation i will go anywhere and i aint afraid to run like a dog on coke lol so we will see what the future holds, but so far so good.

    Im interested to see what happens during this winter in terms of freight, if they can keep me moving . It will be the ultimate test to see wat this company is all about. Last 2 winters i did more sitting than working.atleast thats what it seemed like...
