There are two side to every story... We have never been told our lease would be pulled if we did not accept a load. We have never been FORCED to take a load we turned down. We have been asked why we have turned down a load, sometimes I reply sometimes I do not.

I think with a new truck it is best to be even more cautious as to many people get wrapped up in I have warranty. While warranty is a good thing it often takes longer to get a truck fixed or they do not fix the truck like we would like. While we do not have to pay for the repairs we will...

One thing I do not worry about is FSC. If the load pays enough I take it and if the load does not pay enough I do not take it. I like how our carrier pays FSC on our dead head miles and I have no complaints.

That is the way we wish it was but there is no law that dictates this.

This says so much Greg on what I feel is part of the problem. They look at how much one load pays and it is more than they make in a week and we refuse it!!! They look at us as arrogant cherry picker drivers. I have had dispatchers question me on why I did not take a load as the load...

Dennis when will you be arriving in Green? We will be at the office next week but will probably be leaving on Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning. All drivers are welcome to stop in at the office to visit with office staff or to sit with dispatchers. Let them know ahead of time and they...

I have never been a dispatcher and after sitting on an extension listening to the questions they are asked I would not change jobs with them. The one thing that really blew my mind while listening what the type of questions they were asked: Where can I get my truck weighed I think the load is...

Our truck has been some neat places and here are few. Lake Albert OR 395.jpg Charter Jet and Bob D6077.jpg 102409 (2).jpg

We have also taken the time to "Campout" in our CMV. I enjoy taking pictures of our truck at cool places and I will start a thread about that. DSC00121.jpg Bob chair Lake Erie.jpg

Welcome and hope to meet up with you one of these days! Do you have orientation scheduled soon?

We are quick to tell our truck load friends that they need to look long and hard at expediting. It took us awhile to adjust to expediting and the sitting we do. We had to keep thinking it is hard to plan an emergency. With USX seldon did not have a pre assignment before we delivered. We knew...

I believe you get a referral bonus if you get someone to sign up for this service? I checked on this program as curiosity got the better of me and I sat down and chatted with Paul as well. I believe one of the stipulations is you cannot all ready be an O/O leased to one of the companies and I...

I always smile when I see the leaning tower! Great Picture

Leaving a baggy on a mirror full of stuff does not sound like something Terry would do. When Terry see's another vehicle even if they are asleep he often leaves a business card saying he was there. I can imagine Terry assuming someone needed supplies as most people are well stocked. This...

There are a lot of FedEx Custom Critical drivers on here and I do not see which opco this FedEx driver was driving for.

That is a cool pictures and I as well would like to see this. The first link you posted does not work or maybe it is me....

Glad you got this working it sounds very frustrating.

We enjoy participating in this hobby and have found a few caches around truck stops. The funniest one was in Waco at the Flying J as one cache is right there in the plants in front of the building. There are caches all around us that we do not see. Fun activity and if you add your own...

Maybe this will help as I was just able to make it work using the steps listed below: Log on On top bar choose Reports Click on the calendar on the left Click on the date that you want or hit the back arrow to scroll back to the month and date you want. Click on the right calendar and go...

I posted how you can talk to Henry who is a driver first and foremost. He has access to a lot of information and is more than willing to talk about that engine. Henry has access to Detroit and the engineers which most people do not. We have talked to Henry enough to know what that truck has...
