Nothing like having your truck class changed from Sprinter to Small Straight and not getting a load because you can't haul the weight of a small straight and the Sprinters that should be behind you in position get loads! If I was dock high or I was able to carry more weight than a Sprinter I could understand but not the case here.

That happened to someone else just awhile ago...you get it straightened out?

According to Brian that's how I should be classified! I strongly beg to differ. This has already cost me some good loads that I missed because of this

Shadow,

I sent the powers to be and cc'd you on an email to discuss this topic in the am. I see the issue and I want to make sure everyone else does so that we can come up with a logical solution for you and anyone else this could effect. Check your email when you get a chance and please respond to all with some of the problem scenarios so they all fully understand.

Thank you and hopefully we can get this fixed for you.

I'd like to start this post by first thanking Ken(OVM) for bringing in the toaster oven.No more soggy fish sticks! It works great!Thank you!

And, I'd like to thank God and Dispatch for blessing me with a load out of San Antonio the other night, coming up to Toledo! Awesome! Such a peaceful, easy feeling!

Going to go to bed, and catch up on some sleep..All showered, laundry done, van washed..

Jim,

I was only there 2x. Once I went back to the cheese state around 120 or so miles to get loaded and the other I was loaded out of the St Paul area.

Thanks, shadow, that's encouraging. Will sit for a while and see if any thing comes up.
