Motorcycles was just a dream! lol. I've repo'd for years though. Off and on, good and bad. I figured I'd try expedite. Been curious about it for years and wanted to learn the ropes. I'm learning that if they'd keep me with at least 2k miles a week, it would be more profitable then a big truck!!!!....but I'm not counting my eggs this time:(

Hell...I think I've got the same mentality!! I made the truck like 3300 last week. They fed it to me and I took it. I've yet to turn a load down with these people, but its doesnt seem like its paying off, LOL. Anywho.......I'll just mozy back to my hotel tv and watch the news.

John,

Not sure if you are still stuck in a hotel by the dealer. If you are try the Wheat and Rye down Middlebelt. You will get a burger and fries that will last you for a week.

Since their reorg, does wheat and rye still serve those huge sandwiches?

I didn't know about the re-org. It has actually been over a year since I have been in there. Do you remember the old one? You had to fight to get your shoes unstuck from the floor. We used to go there all the time when I started my company. We had our first office in the old truck stop on Van Born that they tore down.

Yea they shut down I think all the places and were closed for a bit then reopened. I heard that they are the same, changed their names to W&R bar, steak house and something something.

When I used to get that cornbeef sandwich, it was three days worth of eating.

I am still here:( Dealer had to order a scv (suction control valve). From what I heard, its basically a toyota version of a throttle position sensor. Hopefully that will take care of the truck, then its off to the apu guy in New Boston.

Week 1 Awsome. Week 2 Sucked. Week 3 Having that feeling of nothing great coming my way!! lol.

But....we'll keep taking things 1 day at a time. Expediting sure is ALOT different then flatbeddin, thats for **** sure:)
