    The dog days of summer: AUGUST!

    I fill up at the truck pumps all the time with no problem. I pull up handle just far enough so the fuel doesn't kick off the nozzle.

    Actually we don't make money. We are trying to survive. Period.

    SLOW MONTH FOR FREIGHT or WHAT???

    July is the slowest month during the summer months due to plant shut downs. If you are only running auto freight than all you can expect is to hopefully make enough to get by until it picks back up. Also while I'm at it Jan. and Feb. are also slower months.

    After looking at that link, it seems that someone forgot to proof read their work as I have found at least 2 spelling errors. Dang that spell check.

    The saying "work smarter not harder" needs to be applied here.

    About to pick up a 2015 FORD TRANSIT i5 3.2 DIESEL..

    How long have you been with said company? I just don't see it happening but maybe I'm wrong. I still would like to see your numbers after 1 yr driving like that. I drove 125,000 miles in a year before and by the end of the year I was done.

    Personally I think these are pie in the sky numbers. With all of the driving you will be doing you won't have time to sleep let alone be safe on the road. I will believe you when you show me your numbers at the end of the first year.

    Say Hi to July

    I think they all are but if not next week should do the trick. If you think this is bad, just imagine what it was like when everybody closed down for shutdown. Not fun at all. All I hope for is to make the bills and hope nothing happens to the sprinter.

    Say Hi to July

    As I have said in other posts that July is just like January. Slowwww. Also when talking with newbies in person I tell them in a given month (4 weeks), there will be one crappy week, two average weeks and 1 real good week, so it doesn't matter what month it is this formula will happen just the...

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    I beg to differ with you on that one. My loads pay way more than $1.00 per mile with less than 2500 lbs. and I work for the same company as you. Work smarter not harder.

    Say Hi to July

    Everybody must remember that this is JULY folks and freight volumes are way down like in Jan. This just the way it is. Now as towards the miles per week thingy, I don't worry about how many miles I run since my carrier pays me % of load. I look to a certain $ figure each week. Some weeks and...

    Not saying that you are because I don't know but if the ones who run for pennies on the dollar just to get miles, I think that's backwards. My saying as well as many others "drive smarter not harder." If we all did that there would be more opportunities for all.

    Get ready to cry when looking, I don't think you find anything much cheaper. I was quoted just recently by Progressive for $5800/yr for a 2012 Sprinter. Also this correction has been a long time coming as I remember in 2000 when the last large increase was when I had my straight truck. As I...
