Yes but, thats pretty profitable screwing at $40 or so an hour.

Yep, sounds like some easy pratt time money to me.

We built one exactly as described. We split the tandems 8'1" which allows us to "bridge" (the operative word) 12,000, 20,000, 20,000 for 52,000 gross. Our particular machine can carry a 29,000lb load, although it is difficult to take any truck to the edge of it's capacity envelope. The most I...

Yep, sounds about right. Most folks don't understand that if they ask a direct question, they will get an answer. Not necessarily the answer they want to hear, but, an answer. Then seems like they didn't hear the one they didn't want to hear. Human nature! Most don't get broke of going from...

Kewe: My problem is - why would you draw upon your past and suggest stories out of school?? Beings you know all the underhanded angles ,do you practice any?? Regardless, most of us are adults here, information is needed and BS should walk. There will always be shysters, but, not anywhere...

I guess I feel mr/mz kewexpr is typing some highly speculative brown from the rectal aperture. I would take that speculation with a grain of salt - check that, a tablespoon of salt.

Hey Leo: Let us know when you get tired of doing those 18 gears, then let us know when you get REAL tired of them.

That is, may not exceed 40 foot in some States. Ironically, States like North Carolina, Iowa, and many others with good roads and plenty of room limit you to 40 foot, others with restricting roads and postage stamp sized shipping lots like Vermont limit you to 46 foot, New Hampshire 45 foot...

Actually, that highly resembles a Arab World Truck Stop. The service in those areas is either slow or, stop.

Yes, what Tenneseahawk typed. Maybe the honeymoon is over.

I believe he typed it had a full tandem. Too bad you didn't do at least a 98" wide door.

RE: Dream Not Team On top of all that, most want a guanrantee for minimum income. I'm like Tony, still a small fish carrier for exactly his reasons. I have been requireing anyone new to run with the old buck (me) for a while before I turn anyone loose with equipment. That usually eliminates...

When I spun off from being a Contractor for a Company to doing my own thing, I immediately went for non-automotive moves. I personnally never cared for visiting the (any) auto plants. We now do about 8-10% total automotive (selectively). ie. if it is a good long run, we can put up with some...

I worked with a couple guys that I was going to put in a truck as a team here a while back, neither could "stand up to the plate" for over 5-6 hours without getting exhausted and stressed out. Against my better judgement, I teamed them up anyway. Didn't work. I guess the message is, if you...

I'll betcha it's that Oklahoma air. Steers & Queers you know. Did you get close to one???

Folks, you simply adjust the delivery time. The computer generated delivery time cannot be adjusted easily, so, you are in the hot seat over nothing.

Rich: You must be/would be one of those fleet owners/drivers that allow policy to be strictly dictated to you and you take it for gospel. Ya gotta try the water, once in a while.

Teacel: Don't matter if you run into a "my glass is half full" type or a "my glass is half empty" type, most will still expect YOU to do the walking over there to fill it up.

That's right folks, if the rules don't work for you, then, you have to work the rules. It's easy, just "git 'r' done".

RE: White Glove, Backstabbers, GOD's, Snitches, Ni Nah Dave, just add a letter and call it "most" from my observations. It probably is just plain old infatuation with what they learned or were told in their two or three eight hour classes.
