Toys are OK. $Money$ is better.:D

Phil, Have you considered the possibility that FDCC might have lost a customer or two on the west coast? Or that current customers that utilize your type of truck may be going through a down period or slow down? Express center activity changes all the time. Automakers close up to re tool...

Waiting and not being home for certain events.

I just saw a new ad here on EO that I had not seen before. It says, "We need tractor-teams to join our specialized reefer fleet. Teams are earning $1.73 per authorized loaded and empty miles, including fuel."

New Haven, CT at the T/A. Pre dispatched for tomorrow.:)

I don't remember the year of that truck, but it was less than 8 years old when it was brought into the fleet. 5 years on a class 7 and 8 years on class 8 was the rule when we brought in our truck 21 months ago.

No eyebrows or eye lashes?

Is this your way of saying you are looking for a new co driver?

That is a nice cab over. I was parked next to him for a day not to long ago. He did a really high quality job.

So, are you saying that there are going to be or already are WG reefer flat rate trucks? Or are these new trailers just going to be company supplied to the contractors as they do now with the surface expedite dry vans? I can't see anyone doing WG work for the same rate as the flat rate drivers...

I had a tour of a guys truck set up that had a 48" sleeper attached to the tractor. All he had in there was a small fridge, bunk and TV. He had a 26' box with a side door. Inside the box he had a shower, stove, toilet and sink and he had built a wall separating this area from the freight area. I...

I thought all of the flat rate trucks were surface expedite. Are WG reefer vans something new they are adding? As a D truck in surface expedite we have not seen any slow down. We have been very busy this month and this year. We have done a couple of transfers from E flat rate trucks in the...

Delivering in Dulles, VA. Predispatched for another one this afternoon. 5 runs in 7 days. 3642 miles. All at good rates.

Our truck is an 2006, Class 8. It has 767,000 miles on it. I'm not sure if putting a new reefer box on it would be a good idea as the truck may not last another 10 years without a full rebuild. Even though everything is running great now and I'm hoping to get another 500,000 miles from the...

0400 on May 1st. Am I the only one awake? Flying J, Blacksburg, SC

We are not a white glove truck. Our load count is up, our rate per mile (all miles) is up. Actually our all miles rate average is higher than our competitors loaded mileage rate. We are happy.:) Those low paying load opps can simply be declined. And I agree with Team Caffee. A buck a mile going...

It really is nice. Please keep us updated on the good and bad of owning her. Especially the fuel mileage. I already talked to Jeff Jones about getting a copy but I have decided I am not yet wealthy enough to own one so nice.

The last time we were in CA there were 9 other trucks already checked in when we arrived. I think 8 days at the T/A in Ontario with a <75 qualifies as having patience. Then having to take a relocate to Dallas to finally leave. We did much better out there when running a fleet owners TVAL truck...

A Team, You are one of the few that are truly fortunate in that you are able to get out of almost any place.

If you have a bit of the gambler spirit in you go for it. We started 3 years ago with no experience fresh out of a CDL school. We didn't really even know what expediting was. We drove for 2 different fleet owners and then bought our truck in Oct, 2009. EO is a great place to research and...
