    Run over

    Plenty light Rich. When you submit for "down time" it's best if you provide a 90 day income and expense picture. You may also want to ask them if they'd choose to rent you a truck while yours is being repaired. Unless, you choose to sit on your hands during that time and just collect. You...

    cabover expeditor?

    We also run a 9800 International. It was designed, it seems, to be a "fleet" type truck, compared to the Argosy. Just don't have the amenites that the Argosy does. My vote goes to the freightshaker as I compare them.

    Expediter's School

    There is one functioning school that I know of. It is at my place. All of my drivers "get" to run with me for a couple months or so. It's not always "fun" or, pleasant, however, the time spent is educational. And, an introduction to the real world. Could be titled a wake up call. The...

    RE: What do owner's expect drivers to be able to d Ark: Maybe the owner expects the driver to do as you suggest, some minor things to meet delivery times. Which in most cases can easily be accomplished. However (coma) most drivers I have run on to will not raise a finger to advance "their"...

    cabover expeditor?

    Dave, you may want to try one. There is way more room and storage than maybe meets the eye. I can't imagine a team needing more than 10-11 feet to live well in. I've teamed with some large cars, and we both had plenty of room.. Only problem i've found, the prospective teams were too #####...
