    Sprinter options

    Turtle I know you do very good in this business. I think you have given great advice on this site more often than I ever will. But on this one I think your off base IMHO. Trust me my stance has nothing to do with ego or proving why my choice is right. It is simply what I feel is the best for...

    Sprinter options

    Load count in reality means nothing, it is loaded miles that determines your pay for the year. If your with a company that does not limit a solo's miles and uses bid boards for a percentage of the loads the options for three skids are not only because they tend to bid on those. It is because...

    Sprinter options

    Turtle I think the bigger the company the more small loads are available because of the customer base. By and large they are not the better paying companies per load. Just the opposite from you dispatchers and company owners have told me there is always more loads available for 3 skid capable...

    Sprinter options

    Sometimes size does matter. In the longest sprinters you can haul 4 skids. Depending on who you work for having the option for a forth skid can earn you an extra thousand or Two or Three a month. A big part of being successful out here is comfort, the more room you have the more comfortable you...

    I have only met two people doing expedite that drive the 144's they both regretted having that small of one.

    Mi. Bar owners fight back!

    Actually I do not smoke in restaurants by choice but I also think it should be the business owners choice. How anyone can argue that because they do not like smoke everywhere they want to eat should be smoke free is beyond me. No one is forcing them to walk in the door. I can't stand the...

    Mi. Bar owners fight back!

    It is a matter of personal choice and business owners deciding what is best for their business. If you do not like smoke go to places that do not allow it. Smokers can frequent places that do allow it. Biz owners should not be dictated to on something like smoking on their premises it should be...

    anyone running a 6.6 duramax box truck ?

    If you already have a cube you probably have a better idea on mileage but I would be shocked if you averaged 16 - 18 in one.

    December Locations

    Picked up on Muncie, In to Newcomers Town, OH. About 250 miles with a 18 mile deadhead. Hope I get lucky and snag another load or two this week.

    Broke down in Lexington Ky

    On average my bet says sprinters earn more revenue than a cargo van. When set up right you will always have more loads available to a sprinter than a cargo van. The comfort level also makes it easier to stay out for longer periods of time earning more money.

    Need truck buying advice

    If your going to be buying an older truck I would do some research first. I would check the cost of an in frame, common parts like alternators etc on different engines. It could save you big dollars down the road.

    Ben Affleck thinks pay too high

    Wonder how many times he has made 200 or more times more than someone working on his set? Who does he think pays his income rich people, he makes money off the average joe just like a bank or ceo he criticizes. Actors should stick to acting and musicians should stick to making music. When most...

    Russian Newspaper Joins Forces With WikiLeaks

    Actually I have read and still read parts of Assange's blog. Listened to and read some of his interviews and read other things about the man ( I use that term loosely). Personally I think he is a nut job. Sorry to disagree with what you wrote and you did basically refer to people who do not see...

    Russian Newspaper Joins Forces With WikiLeaks

    So someone doesn't agree with you is now on the lunatic fringe? C'mon get real even people inside wiki leaks has said the guy was way to focused on the U.S. They live off of donations, they need to continue to release documents to maintain their way of life and keep their name in the press.
