    Cab Cleaning

    Thanks for all of the constructive comments. My thought was this. A person like myself would not be interested in this as we keep up on the cleaning on an almost day to day basis. However, and not to stereotype, but I would think the "larger" drivers who have a hard time getting around and not...

    February, the short month !!!!!!!!!

    Got load offer the day it was supposed to turn bitterly cold after the storm in KC so got out of there as fast as we could. It was a different one from the one that was offered the day before that you ended up accepting then not being able to run.

    Cab Cleaning

    So what you guys are saying is it basically is nonexistent. We had a thought the other day. Would someone be willing to pay someone to clean their cab for them at a truck stop? We were thinking something along the lines of vacuuming, clean floor mats, armor-all dash, clean windows inside and...

    Cab Cleaning

    Having not been in a straight truck for long and Load 1 providing a free wash bay, I have never used a commercial truck wash. My questions are this. Do they offer interior cleaning at the blue beacons or the Iowa 80's and if so what does it entail and how much?

    February, the short month !!!!!!!!!

    Was offered that load earlier but would not fit. Getting tired of the smaller than "normal" box on this straight truck. :mad:

    Pile up,,,again

    Drove through that area about an hour before. At that time they had West bound 94 shutdown due to 7 tractor trailer pile up at the 8 mile marker in Michigan. The lake effect machine was in full force and the roads had an inch of super compacted snow. SUPER FUN TIMES!!!!

    Bolt Express

    I had an extended one ton cargo van on with them as a fleet owner. They pay a supposed 58% of the load but you ALWAYS had to hammer them to get a decent rate. They do a weekly FSC which was about .05/mile less than E-1's at the same time. They also pay only "Shortest route" not "Practical...

    4-Wheeling Back To Laredo : 4-Wheeling

    just curious as to what your exact route is. My Streets and Trips going through St. Louis, Canadian, and Jerrell puts it at 1364 miles. If you are only being paid for 1280 you are being ripped off 80 miles.

    Been with Load One since the middle of October and so far everything I had heard out on the road is true. I can't wait for the new year to start and to bring on my new co-driver. Hope everyone has a very merry Christmas and a prosperous new year. See ya on the flip side.

    Being a Lions Fan For A Day

    Don't get me wrong, I have been a lions fan all my life. I look at it as great training for the expedite world. First you hear all the hype and how good, but not the bad, the team will be in the preseason. Preseason in expedite is before you buy a truck and all you want to see is the good...

    The wal-mart driver probably saved it from being even worse.

    Thinking about expediting

    As a former team in a van the big question is what company are you going to lease onto? This is important as some give the long loads to all vanners no matter as a team or not. Others "reward" teams with all of the long loads. Makes a huge difference as to your potential income.
