    slow start to the week.......

    Randy, EGL is not the place to be for you if you want to run Expedited loads around the country. Thier business model does not include getting you the second load let alone the third. They will hope you run these loads for them but will put very little effort into keeping you loaded once you are...

    Heck why mess around out west, if your in area 51 have them beam you to Ohio or somewhere in the midwest, no fuel cost or anything.

    Landing Gear

    Once you have them adjusted with the Pin you never need to move the pin again. Unless you get to a dock that is on a hill then your legs may need to be shorter or longer. Just adjust once and then leave the pin alone. Proper adjustment would be about one inch off the ground. hope that helps...

    Criteria For Turning Down Loads
