That's why I find expedite questionable now. Friend of mine worked yesterday 7:30 to 3:30 doing locals, paid over $400, co-mingling not an issue. He was home at 3:30 and got to pretend he had a "real" job, leave in the morning and home by afternoon... You guys really drove the rates down ya...

Yes but 300k was more thrifty. Never fear, found my trusty universal extendo wrench in my tools. The double sided tape was MB compatible

Anyone ever change the belt tensioner on the old Sprinter? Those tiny bolts are not fat hands compatible

Less $$ on your paycheck

I suppose cross border won't be happening. Sniff the boxes for your own protection, Grizzly. If it smells like a college party...

A fun pictogram representing the company that bought us out Plus

Union. To be on the super special hot list, you need: 2 million liability 28 days out of 30 available No refusals without documented acceptable reason, like hospital admission And the aforementioned 2 weeks notice for PM, max 3 days bereavement even if your kids or wife die...those are some...

So. I've been taken off expedite. Instead, I now can say yes or no to any delivery as I see fit with no repercussions. It will be more locals but I will be offered the expedite runs when they run out of drivers. I won't get the 400 mile run that never has a backhaul, unless absolutely...

Funny. I saw your message in an email, but it's not on the website or the app. The border sticker from dtops can be edited by the owner of the vehicle. Any company can take posession, with an explanation as to why, and it is free. The fact that I own the vehicle and plates (and can provide...

Screw it. I'll work for both. He with the best deal wins. I'll begin by taking possession of my border crossing sticker (free, and totally within my rights as I paid for it and own the van/plates) (Edit: does that make me a multi? Should do something with my 2 million commercial insurance...

+1 Happy Birthday!!! So. Being off for a week, the new corporate unionized hybrid bullspeak has me "demoted" from expedite. (You aren't allowed to take time off without 2 weeks advance approval, maintenance must be booked ahead by the same amount, breakdowns must be given notice of at least 3...

Yeah. That Its a stranglehold on existing freight. Its true, shippers don't want to send valuable freight with Billy Bob trucker

Rainy day so no sprinter tinkering on my self imposed vacation. Time to look at straights for sale online, and not buy one again

Are there no decent carriers left that don't make you jump thru hoops for the privilege of taking all the expenses on yourself to deliver their freight? I can't make it up the stairs without taking a nap after Edit: never mind. Probably nothing else would make men go see their doctor. I know...

Just waiting for an app to challenge the load board system. He who actually does the work should be taking the biggest cut. Not always the case after it filters down thru a few carriers Now this DOES look like it may challenge uShip, I got rid of uShip in disgust when I saw what the public...

Jeez for all that hassle I'd just buy a straight (and go no farther than 4 hours from home)

That's key. My FSC paid my fuel completely when I was driving on natural gas. People can't switch overnight, they have to pay off existing equipment

Turned down a nice load to Georgia for being 3300. My weight is 3050 no exceptions. They were a little confused

We sometimes forget there are those in the industry that see more than the next bonus...

How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? I get what you're saying (I think) regardless of how many loads I double or triple up on, fuel is my biggest expense. By your logic, the new motor would be 80 mpg for 6 skids :D (Sometimes, nearly $1500 for 360 miles and I...
