To quote Herm Edwards You play to win the game.

I'm guessing both these owners bought new, were the only drivers and properly maintained these trucks. Buying used, especially from a fleet where many drivers had their way with a truck, is certainly a gamble. Where many drivers had their way way with a truck....... Were they driving the...

Falcons win. Seahawk injury report tells the story.

Under the weather is usually better than under the dirt.

Wiser words are seldom spoken. I believe a lot of issues with current engines are poor repairs. Once somebody does a bad repair I believe it just compounds the problem. As far as the OP opening himself up to cheap shots, he's been here long enough to know you can open yourself up to cheap...

I believed in extended warranties until I sold cars for one of the big 3. Buying a sprinter type vehicle for the mileage you guys run, on the thin margins, I'd probably buy a warranty too. But then I doubt that I would ever have attempted to operate on those thin margins. Example: the 2001...

40 years in class 8's. And a 350 dually /53 wedge.

A good comparison is on the docks. How much freight moves by propane power vs how much is moved by electric power.

Sounds like you lucked onto a good dealer.

So you have to hope for a $900 plus breakdown in the next 5x,xxx miles to come out on top of the $2000 warranty cost ? And that's minus any finance charges on the $2000.

Whataburger. Ate there once. Thought it was fantastic. Then I accidentally found their stats. Got to be one of the highest sodium content food chains around. Never been back.

I guess I should have been an umpire. I calls em like I sees em.

Don't Worry. Be Happy Keep giving good service and your rates will drop at a slower pace than others.

Few people would make that trip for 5 hrs pay. When HR said look at the income versus miles traveled I guess all you could think was "It meets my minimum. "

You DO NOT need to pull in. With green light. Unless hazmat. Then, it varies by state. When I was driving I think there was about 5 states where ALL HM had to pull in. 3 where only placcarded HM had to pull in. I had a list on my sun visor that I reviewed with co-driver whenever we loaded HM...

I've seen two very low mileage ones for sale. Also heard rumors of door problems and roofs cracking. Just looking at the concept I didn't see how they would withstand very many hard trips into a dock. Anyone have any experience good or bad ? Are the upsides worth the risks ? Is the...

As I think about my post I wonder if I need to apologize. It added nothing to the value of the discussion and sounds like an attack on Steve. I've lost money in business to people who have looked for loopholes and gamed the system. And to those who didn't honor a courts decision. So these...

mccll01 My post was worded poorly. I edited it.

Yes, pay the original debt. What did they do to get stiffed ? Except in cases of a dispute, fraud etc. Which should be settled in court. And the courts findings should be respected.
