    air compressor

    I appreciate all the info and while pleased I am a little embarassed to say the problem was water in the service tank. I changed the tank last spring because the previous tank had a pinhole leak and never held water. Needless to say it had plenty of water, but when drained the dryer valve...

    air compressor

    I have an fl60 with an 8.3 cummins. The air compressor is working sporatically. When the truck is started pressure builds to normal but when the brakes are applied tanks do not regain pressure. Although when sitting still and the accelerator is pushed the pressure will build. I am in Ohio going...

    Is your company really smart? Are you?

    The start of this post and many others came with a question about being smart. You and EB have almost 6 years experience between the two of you and can't seem to make a simple bid. You declare the company is getting over on you yet you don't know what they are getting. I chose to enter into...

    Is your company really smart? Are you?

    Like I said YOU DON'T KNOW there are too many variables with each load. By the time you would have bid that load it would have been half way to Columbus. That is assuming you would have bid it without nit picking every detail. So I have no problem with one sitting back to be spoon fed loads just...

    Is your company really smart? Are you?

    I see loads up to 3800lbs go into sprinters all day long. Can you just give a quote? I am for rates going up after all I drive too. I would just like to know what drivers would charge to move the freight and we can go from there. Or do we just gripe and moan to no avail?

    Current Rates per Mile

    This is one of the main points of contention NO ONE KNOWS. At least those who continually harp about rates. I asked in another post for a bid and have not recieved any quotes. People love the idea of the free market with no competition. Please refrain from the rhetoric about how this market is...

    I am not going to argue the weight here. So whatever weight you will haul in your sprinter come up with that number and price the load.

    Your/Our Freedoms are dwindling...

    I wonder if there is a loophole for having the window rolled down. At that point it is no longer an enclosed space. A lawyer might have fun with that. A little discretion might have been used in writing the citation.

    Is your company really smart? Are you?

    Anyone here please feel free to respond and let's see what the consensus is. If you ran under your own authority and had a shipper call you to bid a load for them what would you charge for both a sprinter van and a 24' straight truck? Price for each individual run. You know there are 3 competing...

    It's time to play..WHO'S IN THAT TRUCK?!

    After high school I worked various jobs manufacturing, landscape, etc. I then went into construction for about 10 years and really enjoyed it. A year ago I wanted a change and my father-in-law ran a few expedite trucks. I ran a van for a while then bought a straight. Everyone said I chose the...

    12 Volt Electric Blanket

    I have an electric blanket that I purchased at TA. It works great. I use two gell cells to power it. Each gel provides 18 hours of continuous warmth. I am not sure of the amp hours because the gells were purchased used and do not say on the label. The only problem with the blanket is getting out...
