Am I missing something or hasn't there been any training assigned yet for October? Sitting on these weekends would have been a good time do them in advance.

2nd time in 2 weeks 1 load has been dispatched twice and I get to be the odd man out. :mad: My main issue with this one is this load screamed FUBAR from the beginning. Get the call Friday night with load offer. Pick up Saturday at noon. Sure not a problem. Then 10 minutes later get a call that...

Sounds like the stress of ownership is starting to set in. ;)

I have an 08 version of this that I drove before I went to the straight truck. It is signed on with another company, as load 1 is not taking on any new sprinters, and it will get anywhere from 13-18 mpg depending on driver, weight, and most importantly wind. It has a 4.8L with a 3.73 rear end...

I have a problem with the selfie part of next week. Ok, call me old, but I still have a flip phone and have no way of getting pics off of it other than sending it in a text. What is one to do? John if you give me your personal # I would be more than happy to send them to you.

And this is why I like my 15 lb Cockapoo. Easy in and out and NO shedding. ;)

Unless the dog is old and arthritic it should be able to get in and out on its own. If it can't I would think a 2x12 with something non-slip placed on it would work maybe 4-5 foot in length placed on the top step.

I would move to El Paso, Tx.

Just saw this thread for the first time. And here I was impressed with myself for losing almost 30 lbs. since January 1st. I have no shot at being the biggest loser now. Started at 220 now bouncing around 190, target weight is 175-180.

I have absolutely no problem running shorties as long as on occasion you can get more than 1 per day. Not asking for it every time but if you know the possibility exists it helps keep you motivated to accepting the little ones. At my previous carrier, if you got a call from the head...

Just a curious question. Those who have an automatic transmission in a straight truck and have the manual over ride do you ever use the over ride? In other words is there any recommended time to switch it to manual. I have been using it more often in congested areas, monitoring my RPMS. Also...

I did do the Macro yesterday but not the free form. Got no response back, not even a 10/4 I have received your message. But did not pursue it any further.

Just ordered the Straight Truck Die Cast with my rewards points for my soon-to-be 3 year old grandson. Thanks John.

Exactly right. Clock started at 9 am. Was unloaded by 10:30. If I try to get my 10 hours in I would have to sit until 20:30 and then how many loads are dispatched at that time for immediate pick up? Not many. So if you can keep the guys on the short loads moving with multiple loads it would seem...

Suggestion for the suggestion box. Since going solo 2 weeks ago I have been inundated by small loads. I have yet to turn one down, and it has become quite obvious I am one of the few as I can leap frog 5-10 trucks at the yard with the offers, however, maybe trying to piggy back 2 or 3 loads for...

With all of the Qualcomm issues as of late. Maybe they should give us a break on our fees? ;)

Hmmmm, I just noticed that Florida kinda looks like the country's manhood. :p :)

Michigan. Preferably northern lower Michigan.

Thanks for the very valuable info.

Do you know of anyone now that would do that? Is the company you had do it still in business?
