    Flat Bed Rules?

    Putting a tie down strap on the outside of the rub rail, doesn't give as secure a hold as putting it under,and although you may never rub the side of the trailer, and cut a strap,you never know when it cold happen.I don't know anyone that will not change their tie down straps at least every...

    I've been in trucking for over 30 years.Most mileages are figured by what was called the house hold movers guide,and up 'til resently,most of the trruck load carriers were still using it,and those miles are so far off ,it's nuts.Skimming of the top,I don't know where your leased,but,Ive never...

    FSC-Why don't companies pay 100% of it to us?

    This blog is getting crazy.We are now talking FSC.Ok you guys that get 100%,are you getting it on dead head miles?Bet not.Your getting, like I get,100% but only on loaded miles,and that's 100% of what's being charged to the paying customer.Since it seems that the way FDCC pays their FSC,is in...

    Greg,i think the cc truck pay you figured is a little high.I don't know the calculations for a straight truck,but if that would have been a full rate tractor,pay would have been right at 1100 dollars.I assume that was a D load,and at 60% that truck pay was a little high,unless it was a DR load

    OVM,your scenario is way off base.You think everyone's truck payment is end of month?The reason for 5 year rule is not about debt.Once your on,there isn't an age limit,but if your having truck problems,and your truck is older than the 5,you may be asked to trade it in

    Dave,in all the years I was there,thursday and friday were the busy days of the week.I would say what your missing ,is the poster isn't putting into account the dead head to pick up.I know there some loads with the discount,that would be hard to run,but a H/W team in a straight truck,could still...
