Well, it happened again last week. The second time in the same week. I will not bore you with the details, but from 850 miles I ended with 300 for the first part of transfer. I checked and there was an express center right in the middle with 4 vans sitting there that would have made it fair for...

This should be illegal. You should be banned for making us slobber all over the keyboard. :D

Ha, I was driving last night and I saw a few 'falling stars'. Now I know why.

Awwwwwww, that was so sweet....

Dreamer, As soon as I get an offer I punch the pro number in the computer and it tells me where it picks up and where it delivers. This is how I found out about it. Immediately I checked St. Louis, actually it is St. Charles, since that is a place where we do lots of transfers and there were...

Some of the heat, or some of the wife? :p

Yeah, this did not make me feel any better, but your post in the other thread about OVM's transponder did it. :D:D I will survive.

You guys tell me, anything I can do, anybody I can talk to so this does not happen any more? Or am I just that unlucky? 90% of the time when I get a transfer load I get the short end of the stick. And here I am talking about the first part of the transfer, not the second part when there is no...

But if you have the I-Pass, no extra for overheight if you use the express lanes (a lane without attendant). If you use a lane with and attendant with I-Pass, I guess the attendant sees that you are overheight and adjusts the price.

That's a good idea. :cool:

Ken, sorry I didn't get a chance to come by. I got another load right away and I had to head in the opposite direction. Another time.

Yeah, some people just refuse to use their heads. Makes me think about some dispatchers/safety people at some of these expediting companies. 700 miles limit rule comes to mind. If there is no other van available, I can do more than 700 miles, but when there is, I have to swap out a 711 miles...

I will deliver in Rome tomorrow morning. Where are you heading after delivery?

Spent the weekend with friends in Chattanooga, TN, now at home.

Well, today they booted me off, so I had to go through the process of getting the new password. Did not have any problems with understanding it and writing it down. Now, where am I going to keep this password so I can easily get to it when I need it???? Tried to change it to something that I...

Ha ha, you don't count. :D

Better warranty, I don't know, better service, maybe, but better quality, no way. I'd rather be on the road than having to take advantage of the better service. No Government Motors vehicles for me.

I will be passing through there between 5 and 6 if I don't get a beep by then. If you will still be there, I would like to meet you.

At least the fry machine doesn't cost $30 a week to operate :p

It happened to me before but it wasn't tar, it was hot tire rubber that I picked up when I was behind an 10 wheeler that was shedding one of its tires. I had no time to avoid what looked like a piece of tire, ran over it and the Sprinter started shaking like an unbalanced tire. Oh, crap, messed...
