    Vehicle Activity

    Vehicle Stats

    I contacted FCC about this a while back. When the office looks at the Stats they look right it is only on our portion that the stats look odd. All I can say is they are working on it and have thought they had it fixed at least once.

    FedEx Custom Critical goes Red

    The new trucks do not pay for signage and they get less of a percentage of the load then we do. This has been going on for over a year that FCC pays for the signs and you get 1/2 a percent less.

    settlements

    The question that IT looks at is how will this directly benefit FCC? From what we have been told IT is way behind and stressed to the Max to maintain what they need to do to keep all of the FedEx families happy. One suggestion I would like to see happen is to quit having the settlement...

    Best mattress?

    We have an 11" memory foam mattress on springs. We had the mattress made for the truck with 4" of memory foam on the spring frame at a Verlo store in Saint Louis. That put a stop to all of our bouncing while sleeping and finally enabled us to get sleep while going down the road. The Verlo...
