    The Absolute Importance of Doing Our Job Well

    If someone wants to know "the Piper Way" based on how they perceive my knowledge about the issue at hand they can ask me. To post it without any discussion started or "just because I think so" is not my style.

    The Absolute Importance of Doing Our Job Well

    I finally sat down and read through all of this and ... everyone is right. There will be some customers who value a clean truck and well dressed/groomed drivers and there will be customers who couldn't care less. There are drivers who value having a clean truck and being clean, to others it is...

    Pilot Mixed W/BIO

    There are a lot of horror stories about BIO and most of them are CB stories at best. 10% BIO will not harm anything. That said, the Bio needs to meet the appropriate ASTM Spec. I can't remember the number (Turtle HELP!!) but if it does things are OK. Some fuel places confuse BIO with things...

    Diesel Prices at truck stops

    QT's are awesome, I had more than one trip across Illinois with the low fuel light on praying I'd make it to the first QT in MO and get good cheap fuel! If they only had better coffee....

    PACCAR Tech Fees

    wow again... One thing you might do, if you see something on another KW that you would like to put on yours, get the last 8 of the VIN of the truck. I used to take a notepad with me to the truck show in Louisville each year so if I saw something cool on a new Freightliner that I wanted to add...

    Which run would you take?

    Nope, it's never come up that I needed it. I haven't paid the 10.75 fee in 12 months. I do throw my FAST card up by the window so the readers will zap it. Now I'm confused...I think I'm missing your jist here....

    A New Story With New Writers, Please!!

    Meanwhile in the parking lot Layout was trying to toss one of the pigs into the air cause he had the itch to hunt. "I just can't shoot stuff unless it's in the god **** sky!!!". After he damaged the fuel price sign and 6 parked cars he......

    Which run would you take?

    They do their best to get us home. We do get some extra points so to speak but I still have to be in the right place and have the right equipment etc. I don't know how much it bumps us up the line but it must. It would be almost impossible for an American carrier to keep a Canadian guy happy...

    PACCAR Tech Fees

    Wow. I wonder what kind of parts would require the dealer to phone the mothership to figure out? I thought Paccar had a pretty good VIN based system. What brought that up when they told you p?

    Which run would you take?

    Dunno if you mean me Doug but fuel is just part of my CPM all my other overheads get blended into it as well including *gasp* some money for good ole Dave to drive the truck.
