When any of my trucks deliver to Albany, they always go to either Boston, Binghamton, or Syracuse. Albany tends to be pretty dead.

WAYNE's Frame & Body 4010 West 4th Ave Gary, IN 46406 PH# 219-949-7245 ask for Kevin (owner)

I just had to have some body work done on one of my trucks and I've never had anyone been as fair, honest, and do such a fantastic job as WAYNE'S FRAME & BODY in Gary, IN. They did an amazing job and I couldn't believe how reasonable their price was. I highly recommend them.

You'd be surprised! :)

Ya got that right OVM! My 'advantage' would be my height cuz then my 'victims' couldn't see me coming in for the kill... :) :)

Nope....picked up dead farm animals then @ the plant, we pulled the hides off them. Hides got sold to one company and the carcusses to another.

I was a professional clown for a few years and before that, I owned & operated a small rendering company.

Glad that you're doing well Steve. I told you that you would! :)

It's NOT in TRI-STATE's, nor ANY expedite company's best interest to 'load around the vans onto straights' just to keep the straight trucks busy. Here's a FACT to disprove this claim: I recently had a truck on a board with several vans. the VANS got loaded BEFORE my truck...in fact, my truck sat...

First off.....are you sure this "friend" of yours is telling you the truth? Secondly, this sounds like a discounted load to me...which is NOT unusual .My own trucks occassionally haul discounted loads for both TRI-STATE and for FECC. Thirdly: do you and your "friend" know all the FACTS in...

No...you're NOT considered a newbie. You're now just going to be considered a new family member. :)

Tri-State has had a cap on vans for quite awhile now. yes, they have had addded vans a little at a time before but now they've opened the gates....

You'll be just fine. Mike will give you a list of us mentors who can help you.

Maybe I can help you...what tractor info would you like to know?

Freight must be picking up because TRI-STATE has unlocked the gates and are now adding more vans starting on Monday. I wonder if the other expedite companies will follow suit?

The guy is telling you the truth. I've had to go thru it with drivers that I've had from NC in the past. It doesn't matter to the state that the drivers are "independant contractors"....they still have to carry workman's comp ins.

So far, my trucks have been running almost double than they did last year. Sure hope this is the sign of things to come but I'm a realist.

How many of you are TRUCKER BUDDIES? I'd also like you to give us a little info, such as how long have you been doing this, why you're doing it, and what kind of things are you doing with the kids?
