    The question is how long till the OM decides to have a word with them.

    47...

    47 mins...

    I hope this shipper takes at least 47 mins to finish loading me. That will be lomg enough to complete the 7 hour portion of a split berth. However, if they take less than 47 mins I will have to go into yard move to go the 3/4 mile to thier scale. And that will totally screw the possibility of getting home tonight. My 14 expired about an hour ago.

    Thats a great idea. How much would an in frame run me? Any extra expense on the insurance companies part they will just total it out. The body work was quoted at just under 50% of what they valued the truck at. They were not going to even check the engine until I requested to do so before any body work begins

    Nope... Have to cross a busy rail track. But I did just talk to a guy here and he said I could just pull off the dock and wait until I get the time. AWESOME!!!!

    Indeed. And being paid by the hour is awesome on days like this. Today will be nearly 20 hours by time I get home... About half of which I have slept.

    Sounds like a mechanical problem that cleared itself in about 48 minutes.

    A complete inframe on an ISX is in the $40K neighborhood.
    A basic is about $25K. But if they are doing all the labor anyway, I'd think you'd be in it for $10k to $12K for parts.
