I am glad to here that, I am not the only one that has had canceled loads. I have been in Cookeville, TN for 2 days and have had 2 canceled load even before I could move the van. Later, Ricky

How many of you get a load offer then before you get the information down and start for the pickup they cancel it? Thanks:'(

Would like to know if there are any owner operator on here that are signed on with ConWay Expedite in a E unit running solo? Thinking about signing on a e unit as a solo driver. I am looking for information and hoping some of the E unit would help out with this. Thanks for the help, Ricky

Broompilot, Thanks for the infomation. I had figured it around the same number you stated, just needed a little info from the pros. :) Ricky

Did a search on the forum for this but could not find it or I looked in the wrong place. Here is what I need information on. What is the average miles you can get on a set of tires (front and rear) on a straight truck 6 and/or 10 wheeler straight tractor before replacing them? I have...

Scott, Checked out the one that advertise on EO, not a bad price for the coverage. Thanks

Who has the best insurance coverage and rate plans for a tractor? Thanks :)

Been checking out the expedite business for sometime now. It seems to me that a new person trying to get into this business does not have a clue who to sign on with!! I have read so much information good and bad on the forum and information packets that makes me think why even get into the...

MRSNAPPY, Looked at it again and seen one really nice T300. It had around 466,000 on it, just like to know when I would have to rebuild the engine, transmission and ect.? About to the point of buying a tractor and running it in the expedite business. Seem like I can find a really nice tractor...

Sorry for the late reply. Broompilot, Going to try an give Fort Wayne KW a call Thursday or Friday. MRSNAPPY, Checked the truckpaper.com but did not see them, must have looked in the wrong place!

Hey Guys, Do y'all know of a good place to find a nice used KW T300? Checked out the dealer you have named but these trucks need to be spec. Would like a truck ready to go that has a little more life in it and not worn out!! New truck is out of the question right now. Ricky

Checked out the dealer website that post on Expedites Online but do not see anyone that has any Kenworths T300. Anyone know of a GREAT dealership for the Kenworth T300 new and used? Thanks

Confessing to you, just trying to get a picture on it!!! Truck dealer gave me some more detailed information on the measurement. He told me that from the back of the sleeper to the end of the frame rail is going to be 268 inches, that is with a extra 50" (4 feet. / 2 inches) frame rails added...

Did a little more checking on it today, check out these numbers. Front of bumper to center of tandems is: 343" Add the 2 axle 48" + 10" for the original frame is: 58" Add the extra frame rails is: 58" Total lengh is 459"/12" = 38.250' Center of front axle to center of 2 axle is 319" / 12" =...

I guess you could say it helped and also made me think a little more about it. Just trying to get an idea where the box will be for the best benefit and how much frame I will have to add if any!! Thought about putting a 20' box but there goes 2' of cargo room.

Hey Leo, I was talking about a used truck. The truck has a 160" from back of sleeper to the center of the tandems. If I centered the box and tandems up together with a 22' box on it, that leaves a 7' section of frame rail I would have to add. What is your thoughts on this! Thanks, Ricky

Thanks LDB and greg334 for the reply. LDB, I have found a Century with a 298" wheelbase but a little high on price for it, I think. Do you think this one would make a great truck? Trying to find out what the measurement are from the sleeper to the end of the frame rails. Did your KW come from...

I would like some information from all of the class 8 expediters. 1. What is the best wheelbase for a tandem axle tractor with a 22' box and why? 2. How many inchs or feet do you need from the sleeper to the end of the frame rails for the same size box? 3. What is the best gear ratio with a...

Merry Christmas to all!! I would like to thank Lawrence McCord and his staff for this Great website, plus all of the expediters that make it a great place to find information. Hope to see all of you on the road in 2006 as my wife and I make the big leap into this business :)

Received 10/26/05 in Alabama. Great little magazine. Ricky:)
