    I work of my recap. Just run 8 to 9 hours a day with 1 short 5 to 6 hour day 7 days a week. Doesn't always work exact, give or take your just running every day managing your time keeping your clock going so you always have hours to run.

    I run parts of the ne, but the areas you just went through, I ripped those pages of my atlas years ago and jill gets turned off lol. Hate you had those issues, but it will get better. Heck I cuss my dispatcher at least once a week.
     
    mickimause and ew2108 Thank this.

    I think ew is a IC on choice....... If you are I have found that running off recap can really limit your ability to book good paying freight in certain areas at certain times for certain people. (that's my disclaimer) recap works for some people but it never fails if I decide I want to just run recap then for some reason the great paying loads pop up that are 600 miles and deliver the next day and I only have 8 hrs to run so I take a reset every week. BUT THIS IS JUST MY 2 CENT'S WORTH and I'd like change back .

    For me sometimes the recap works and sometimes it don't . Just depends on how you pick your loads. Like Tennman said, if you see a killer paying load and don't have the hours to run it, you may be cussing your dispatcher and wanting to kick him in the arse
     
    ew2108 and knuckledragger Thank this.

    I read allllll of it but i figured aaahh im from the area i can deal with it AND THAT WOULDVE BEEN TRUE IF IT WASNT MY TIME AND MONEY BEING WASTED.


    i learned my lesson my years told me stay away but my excitement of picking my loads took me right into the teeth of the lion

    I like it apparently i got a steal on it the list price WAS 180 something but they gave it to me for 156. The electronics annoy me at times but its growing on me. I thought i'd never like anything but the freightliners


    never i stayed below philly pretty much if i went to ny it was via 81
