    Tow/Haul Button

    All that the tow/Haul button does is change the way your transmission shifts. Your vehicle will be able to tow that car without any problems when the tow/haul button is engaged. When in this mode the transmission will shift at a later point, thus giving you more power.

    Are you an employee?

    Ice you miss the point. You are not with the company fedex. You and your barfing codriver are employees of the owner of the truck you drive. If you are not happy with the crumbs your owner gives you then you should consider moving up the iceroad to a different igloo. People here always say...

    Age of truck

    Some companies have to be very desperate to invest in an owner with a 12+ year old truck. A shipper would have to be equally desperate to use such a company more than once. Two inspections a year don't create reliability in a business that demands reliability. Local deliveries is another story.

    Three strikes and you're out.

    We have seen the unmerciful behavior of clergymen toward innocent children. Should we then deduce that all clergymen will be any different. Pedophilia is an abhorant activity by any member of our society, homosexual, clergy or otherwise.

    If you have a couple of older tractors (5+ years) You might find a few expedite carriers that would sign you on. Trouble is, finding a team of drivers that will already know this business and stay with you until you could figure out the way to run a business and keep your drivers happy. If...

    CDL License

    RTM2 You'd be best to check with the license bureau rather than anyone on a forum. A cargo van or P/U truck should be all that's necessary if they require a road test. I'd bet that if you have a drivers license from the any state you live in, they will convert to a Class C CDL with the H...

    Slight Dilemma…we don’t what to do

    If you have your own authority then you have your own company. Go for it in the same manner all the large companies do, they take as many customers away from their competition as they can.

    CDL License

    You will need a background investigation report. That will allow you to take the hazmat exam at the license bureau. Pass the 20 question hazmat test and they will give you a class C CDL with an H endorsement. With a class C you can drive your less than 26001 truck.

    Midwest Expediting

    One thing I notice about expediter companys is if they don't go to truck shows like mats, gats and EO show, you need to check them real good. I never saw Midwest or Alltypes at the truck shows or advertising on EO
