Welcome to August " the dog days of summer "

[Rick007]

My opinion ; it's about time! Now we need to align DOT, with these new insurance issues and get rid of the uninsured that hurt our industry!




Drive hard, safe and compliant!

But will the regulated, professional carriers take a stand?

Pick a month ( hell any month this year )

Show your balls.........

Force them to comply!

Your already loosing, obviously not in 80,000 lb traffic.

However if your vested in other types of freight transportation. You can balance your books.

I would ask every driver that has the opportunity to speak to any DOT officer, to use their voice! Has your encounter goes forward, toss in "hey have you heard the insurance payout numbers of trucks under. 10,000lbs?

Yes it's ridicules, but if our company, our industry is mute or can't act.

WE MUST.

Change can occur with one simple act!

Good morning to everyone! I'm back in service after a sad and crazy week and a half. My uncle passing away and my grandmother breaking her hip. Hope everyone has been busy in the last week and a half as I've heard from several drivers that has. Hope it continues!

Thanks guys. I hadn't seen him in like 15 years and he had been sick for a while so it didn't hit hard.

Please be careful in the yard while we are doing some construction. We have started work to install truck plug ins up near the warehouse. Will be 30 amp service so should be able to handle even the big Bolt sleepers.

Good Tuesday morning everyone. Up and at it early this morning. Heading to the metal shop for a new entry plate for the truck then back home to start the clean up so we can send the old girl down the road with new drivers in it. Well, not new drivers, one of my current drivers plus his wife that will become a team by the first of the year. Really excited about giving them the opportunity to travel together and start something they have been planning for a few months now. Must say it is nice to have a driver that we dont have a moments worry about to give our truck to. Really good drivers are a blessing !!!!!!!!! Everyone have a good day and be safe out there.

 

[Steady Eddie]

Let's try the correct month.
