    Run number on Daily Log

    I could be wrong but I think your run number or BOL number, is required by law. When not on a "run" just put the word Empty for any days you are unloaded the whole time. If you are new to DDL just play with it awhile and you will see how to open and close a manifest.

    Run number on Daily Log

    There is a place on DDL for a manifest number. Move your cursor to the right of remark, under the grid. When it becomes highlighted click it and "open " a manifest. Or go to EDIT, New data record and then manifest.

    Would you really Recommend entering into this Insd

    RE: Would you really Recommend entering into this I would recommend this to the very young couple as well as the empty nesters. The very young couple who owned nothing, could in five short years have a modest house paid for. The only investment they would need to invest in would be two forms of...

    Entering the Business #2

    Well I'am running under two of your catagories, married and strangers. :+ I would have to say you should do as a team at least 75k if Mr. Murphy does not act up to much. But that will require staying in service around 80%, if you are not running for a percentage. I guess I have on those rose...

    Would you really Recommend entering into this Insd

    RE: Would you really Recommend entering into this In order to answer that question I think you have to set some ground rules. Does this mean after health insurance, taxes, and retirement fund? Does that mean as a single or a team? Does that include funding for a next truck, or repair funds for...

    Your Dream Truck

    I would like to have the big truck with the big, big sleeper. I would not want the payments thou. If I sold everthing at home and stayed out as much as the A Team, I would consider the giant sleeper. The big sleeper is kinda like buying more house than you need. Yeah the house will go up in...

    What van should I buy?

    Unless you intend to run local or air freight for a company like EGL, just understand going into it that your "prime company will be supporting driving buisness. Not many can survive with over 50% deadhead. and you WILL have over 50% deadhead doing it. It seems no one can or will talk you out...

    Front License Plate?

    For Ohio plated trucks, when you get your plates there are directions that come with the plate, keep them with your permits. That will take care of the questions.

    Two Kinds of "Out of Service"

    RE: Two Kinds of I think the company should submit to a test if they wanted me to loan my truck to an unknown person to complete a run. But I will admit to being asked to go get someones loaded truck and finish the load from Ohio into Canada. Can you say no thankyou fast enough. Can you...

    My week in dispatch. Favoritism? Definitely not.

    RE: My week in dispatch. Favoritism? Definitely no I doubt that being dispatched around happens all that often. When I called in they were dumb struck as well as I was. Could not find any reason for it happening. But it happened non the less. I have only been that anoyed at PII a couple of...

    RE: My week in dispatch. Favoritism? Definitely no Favoritism, Definitely not? Well I have to chime in here with my negative 2 cents.
