    Questions from a Newbie Cargo Van O/O

    Never worked w/ either company. Tri state is the bigger, more established of the 2. Tri State was as big as Panther & FedEx back in the day.

    Bad truck or bad driver?

    I was the same way. PM is the way to keep rolling! I drive for a guy & also help his mechanic when I can. The quality of driver out here is poor @ best. I'm not that good, but these drivers make me look like a superstar!

    Bad truck or bad driver?

    Look @ what u r repairing. Front brakes, the majority of ur braking is done in the front. Starter burning out, usually staying on the key too long @ start up. Probably a brake rider. He doesn't have to call in to get money for the repair? Talk to the mechanic before u will authorize any repairs...

    ATTN All owners/fleet owners & carriers

    It's your property, whether u gave them permission or not, and you have every right to ask for it back at anytime. Now, if you leased it to them, that's a whole other story. If it was me, forget about the cops. U know how many vehicles get stolen every day? Unless he's a dummy and gets pulled...

    ATTN All owners/fleet owners & carriers

    I'm just a dummy to start things off. First, after 9/11 you cannot turn off your locator on your cell phone to government services, only personal. Check ur settings on your phone. Ez enough, get rid of that phone. 2nd, you're trying to say that if a friend gives me permission to use his vehicle...
