I left Universal and went to Tri State. I'm much happier and getting a lot more runs. Heather

LMAO

It's been hard for most to get out of Texas. My dad drives a semi and he refuses to go to Texas right now. Once in a while he will if the pay is good enough that he can dead head home if he decided to . It has picked up for me. I am running non stop. I also changed companies so that may have...

Okay, thanks guys

Ok, thank you. I will have to get permission to move.

Ya, it is not good here at all. I hope it picks up soon.

I don't mind DH has long as it don't eat me up. I worked for CTA for 6 years and it was always the same route. So, I guess when I decided to go this way I thought it would be a little sitting but not this amount. Maybe I should have got my CDLs and drove dad's semi and let him sit at home lol...

I am at the crossroads of the state. 98 miles from STL, 98 miles from Terre Haute IN, 250 from Chicago IL, and about 150 from KY. I told them I would DH if need be. Maybe it really is that slow. My uncle has been doing this for three years and most weeks he is moving all week. Once in a while...

Central IL and they are saying it is because freight is that slow and then it's they didn't get the bid. I cannot afford to sit for a week at a time.

They pay for my deadhead after so many miles. I believe it is 100.

I have done one run from Romulus MI to Warren MI to Plymouth MI for the second skid, then to Berea KY dead head was 38 miles for the first pickup, total miles loaded was 412 and it was @ .79 . I have been sitting since Thursday.

I was just wondering if there was any other Universal Vanners out there? I don't see many of the semis and I have not seen any other vans. I am stilling sitting and have been since Thursday. I was hoping maybe another driver from my company could advise me on what is the best places to get out...

I am not sure what this one is. It came off of my dad's semi. He got it when his air went out and he could not get it fixed due to the wait time and him being under a load. I do know to me it is a little loud.

Thanks guys.

I was worried about that too. Mike, the guy that does all our work said he has it setting where it won't block a bunch. Time shall tell.
