    AA / Rigmaster

    We have this set up. We have over 3,270 hours on our Rig Master and this one is a 2005 model. Ours has the thermostat so we can regulate our heating and cooling and the Rig Master also monitors our batteries. Over all we are really happy with our Rig Master and have had very little trouble...

    Get a fan

    We have the Fantastiic Vent also in the roof and this combined with a fan sitting on the counter really keeps the truck cool. We found that if we have the Fantastic Vent running and if it shuts due to rain without the fan on the counter the sleeper would immediatly get to hot. The fan also...

    Very Disappointing numbers

    Dave, this is getting insane. If we have an acceptance rate of 80% and the truck sitting next to us has an acceptance rate of 50% everything else being equal and the 50% truck has more dwell time then us they get the load offer first. Acceptance rate does not have anything to do with load...

    Very Disappointing numbers

    Not real sure how you could be in direct competition with company equipment as FedEx Custom Critical does not own any equipment. With the economy slowing down our thoughts are to have every credential possible to get, have the truck set up to take any load offered and get through this year.

    Time to grill

    You are right India it is a great time of year for cooking and grilling. Spring just makes you feel good to be outside in it! Your potatoes sure sound great. I also love cold pasta salads and have been using the rice maker often to boil my pasta. The cold pasta salad tastes great in the...

    the TRUCC act

    Why should any business person have to show what they make on a deal? I do not see how this makes any sense to anyone if the load does not pay enough turn it down. As a business person when we get a load offer that pays way above what our minimum is I sure the heck do not call our carrier and...

    Got a Job....

    Good for you and good luck! The first six months are a roller coaster of emotions and learning to adjust to the life of an expediter.

    Slope

    Yes we have a dash switch but it is tied into the key, turn off the key and the bags fill back up with air. Not a very good system as far as I am concerned.

    Sun Visor versus Fuel Consumption

    Thanks Pelicn! For some reason Molly loves to have her picture taken and I think sometime we have more of her then we have of the kids. Terry and I have been working on a chart to calculate our fuel cost versus our pay per mile to see what we will need to be making per mile by the end of the...

    Slope

    I thought Leo's idea of dumping the air bags would work perfect for us till I remembered that as soon as you turn the key off the bags fill back up. The level sounds like a good idea also and will work for us I believe. It seems as if we do not realize how bad the slope is towards the front of...

    Sun Visor versus Fuel Consumption

    We noticed when we took these pictures we are parked near a Hino that also does not have a sun visor.

    Slope

    We cannot get away from parking spots that are on a slope. It seems as if in the past month every parking spot we have found has a noticeable slope. This sure does not make for a very restful night of sleep. It is getting bad enough I believe we are sleeping better while under a load going...

    Question for teams.

    We have a pretty set schedule 2:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. works out pretty well with time to stop and stretch your legs when you are on your shift. Bob is a night person and I am a morning person so it just depends on when the load picks up and when it delivers on who will be driving.

    Need opinion of exp.expeditors.

    I would have your owner talk to a FedEx Custom Critical recruiter to find out the scoop on getting into White Glove. The recruited will want to know truck information as well as information on you the drivers.

    mileages

    On this last load I tracked the DHPL and FCC said we needed to drive 4 miles further then we drove, the DHPU was exact ( we made no wrong turns!!) then on the actual run we drove 7 miles further then FCC said we should run putting us at driving 3 miles longer then the acual load paid. During...
