    Looking for established dispatch companies

    Analysis paralysis. I can't screw up. 5 mouths to feed, and 3 are disabled. Do I have the cash to jump into a straight and learn? Nope. If the stars align? Maybe

    Looking for established dispatch companies

    Here's a good question. What's your mpg? I wrote off cubes because of mpg and weight / regulation issues... Are cubes worth it? Do you get more loads than Sprinter size? Do they pay more? Enquiring minds wanna know

    Spec'ing a Straight Truck for MPG

    I mean, I could just jump in and buy whatever, but isn't that what EO is for? All I know is I don't want to do FTL. Crazies taking a full trailer for less than I want in a cargo van...

    Spec'ing a Straight Truck for MPG

    Is there heavy loads (not flatbed) and are they worth it, and are they worth it enough to have a straight that costs more all the time There ;)

    Spec'ing a Straight Truck for MPG

    Back at it. Hino, or no hino? A running example of a M2 106 with MBE900 seems to be rare locally And what about heavy straights? I saw a Volvo today with 20k front axle and 44k rears...worth it to go heavy?

    Who besides ThermoKing installs cab heaters?

    You have to do 1 - run it in "prime mode" 2 - angle the pump Youtube. Most common mistake is hooking pump up backwards, not u if it works otherwise, so prime it Lots of pdfs for "angle" of pump, I can't remember but I think 45 degrees... The ¼ tank thing is for your main tank, so the van...

    It’s Fibuary !!!

    Imagine this... A complete turnaround of ideals, working from home, unlimited income and hours worked...as many carriers as I want to work for... Should I become a freight broker?

    DOT inspection

    Ok, I have read that but assumed something was missing. 3 pages vs canadian 195 pages? I guess I have to read both and make a judgement call to understand better. First glance at the American one: if its worn out or broken, no pass. I should hope Edit: and indeed on an over 10k vehicle, ABS...
