Only one I have in my phone

It’s really important to stay active with your dispatch. Everyone has their own style, so no matter how you word it, you need to make sure that they know you’re sitting too long, and it’s not kosher. I know you have stressed that the area that you’re in is “active”, but think about it, they...

Yes, DOT approved sleeper.

The truck is a 2018 3/4 ton 4x4 crew cab diesel dodge.

My employer has bought a Truck and Gooseneck Trailer to do Hotshot Flatbed Loads that I will be driving. The Trailer is 30ft long. The max weight will be 9,500lbs. (I have Class A License) He asked me to make a list of all I will need, and I have never done Flatbed before. I figure that the...

Before I started otr I drove a cab on 12 hour shifts to see how well I would cut it. It was great experience both in dealing with dispatch, finding addresses, and you had added pressure of being the cab guy. I'd recommend this to anyone before driving otr. First I'll ease your mind, a 11 hour...

The owner of the Sprinter I drive is getting into Flatbed with a One Ton Truck, I'm thinking dually, and a Heavy Trailer. We agree it will require a B Class License if the weight of the trailer is up to, but not over, 10,000lbs. We agree it will require stopping at Weigh Stations. But where we...

I'm considering the yellow van route, do I need to learn Spanish first?

My biggest grievance in this business is lack of a permanent sleeping space. For a short time I drove a Freightliner Sprinter that had a mounted fold down bed going side to side. I would be lying if I said it was ideal, but it was always there. Now, I get a lot of weekend loads that pick up...

The silence says something. Would people recommend I get a Sprinter?

I spent $600, I got ripped off!!! Oh well, I used Craigslist to find an instructor. Oddly enough, Craigslist is also how I found my ex wife, so you really can't trust Craigslist...

Yea, this is the crappy part of AF. You can go into Any Anytime Fitness during the 30 days, BUT only during employee hours, which are short and Monday to Friday only. Your electronic pass will not work until the 30 days are done. This part does suck, and I don't know what Planet Fitness is like...

I have been on the road only a few months, so take what I say and ask with a grain of salt. What do you want out of life? Are you only wanting to stack $, or are you willing to make a little less $ to enjoy life more? I chose with van expediting because I do not have wife or kids and my bills...

LOL No, my question is, is .70 to .65 lower than the current free market rate? I appreciate your help, but that is the question I hope to get answered.

Is that lower than the current free market rate is the question?

I am a member of Anytime Fitness, after 30 days I could use my key to get into any AF location at... anytime. My first reason was for showers. A shower anytime I want, how awesome is that, I feel I left my homeless on the road status, lol. My second reason is my health, going into a gym, you...

I have the ability to decline a load, but it has been based on being tired/no sleep, not over the price of the load. Otherwise, I'm taking all loads offered.

I've wen't through this thread and my brain exploded. So, I need to pick up the pieces and ask, hopefully get some answers. I'm Over the Road, Sprinter Van, I've only touched freight 2 times in 4 months, so just strap down and go mostly. I'm working for a fleet owner, so I haven't been super...
