    The great Give Away

    Plenty of non air ride trucks still out there and plenty of shippers still paying for air ride trucks. Pick up a load of windshields/sand molds/ machinery etc etc and tell the shipper your not a air ride truck and first thing you will hear is you better be because we are paying extra for air...

    Extra stops

    Let me check my profile sheet,I just got one of those tonight.. (Well not a stop but wrong address) $25.00. But its not payday yet and I haven't heard yet if the customer is always right, this may still be my fault for following the load profile :D

    LOCKED IN

    Well aware of the 2 hour window. Or use to be, now its turned into a 3 hour (plus) window and sometimes, Oh I'm sorry we don't charge this customer for waiting... Properly because its all based on your second part above... Well I'm not there for them, I'm there for me and my benefit. Part of...

    Another stick on the fire, Ready Now...Start heading that way and I will send ya the info when I get it.. Time is going to be tight, we need you to get there.. Well without the info how do you know its ready now? Don't roll until you have the load profile in your hands. Ready now has caused a...

    LOCKED IN

    Another good reason to d/Ingress and never arrive early again.. Get to your area ask if freight is ready and if not,,then go sightseeing and maybe blow something up in the process.. :cool:

    Eyes on I-94

    Isn't this something that should be done on a daily basis? Not only on commercial vehicles but on 4 wheels also...Lack of traffic enforcement is what has lead to the, its all about me attitude on the open road.

    fuel card- advances

    Where are you seeing these FSC numbers? Even your your worst example from above is better the I have seen at this carrier.. Looking back (real quick) 3 months the best I have seen on my profile sheets is one 497 mile run with a $32.00 FSC.. This isn't taking into account the miles that are...

    Load info

    When has time entered into this industry? Me and you know time is everything but to some its only a way of passing time until its time to go home. Fairly certain a p-up# or something else to ID the load comes with every load profile. Why it doesn't automatically get relayed to the trucks is...

    Ride height

    I assume you found your problem then. :D You said something about leaving a 1" board in place, and that doesn't seem like a lot of board/wood to support the load. It might be best if you where there with various shims to insure/check you get the best piece of wood in place. Just my opinion but...

    October Locations And Other Chit Chat

    If he wasn't so serious I could have had fun with it...He went as far to explained to me that in orientation that they teach ya where to park.. I didn't have the heart to tell him I can't remember that far back and only thing I remember from orientation was the visiting dispatcher saying you...

    Ride height

    Knight for what it is worth my box is sitting on a1&3/8" board..App 4 inches to top of drive tire from the floor gusset. Didnt have a straight edge so the floor gusset measument is rough and not exact. Bottom of frame rail to the ground is 26 1/2 inches with air bags inflated.. 24 1/2 with air...
