There is alot of freight out of the Carolinas. How much and where other freight is will depend on what carrier you are driving for. The 2nd quarter is usually pretty busy. Keep reading the posts and archives on EO and you should be able to make a well informed decision. Davekc owner 21...

They can be bought with the truck purchase or without. A roadwarrior probe system with printer and QC communicator is roughly $2500 installed. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

Most owners should be paying 40 percent of the gross if the owner is paying fuel. The fuel surcharge should go to the owner as well if he is covering fuel. With that said, at an industry average of $1.20 per mile, your pay per loaded mile is .48 per mile. Are you going to deadhead more than run...

I believe it is anything above 26,000 must be apportioned if it leaves the state with a commercial load. I would check as it used to be that way but haven't had any trucks under 33,000 in a long time. You state IRP office would have specific information I operate in FL and TN but here is the...

Easier to park at one of the warehouses at the pier. Give them $50.00 to $100.00 and most will let you park there. We did this and usually went to the Fisherman's Wharf ect. Beats going out 80 miles? Yes, Chinatown is a good addition as well. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

I would say no. My personal opinion is who ever holds the truck title pays all insurance related to the truck. The only exception might be in some type of lease purchase agreement. In a lease purchase you would have to have very specific language with regards to coverage. I would highly...

Iraq and Afghanistan? So true.....they welcome freedom of speech by pulling next to you with a car bomb. On Sunday you can hand them the funnies and watch a riot break out. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

It is probably a ISC. A ISX big block won't fit in a T300 Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

They stopped awhile back but not sure when they will restart? I would call their recruiting department and see what their timeline is. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

Keep in mind that alot of the time it is not necessarily the dirt that is the problem. Over time because of heat and other factors the viscosity breaks down. Just something to keep in mind. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

We had a in motion Winegard that we replaced twice. Motors kept going out. Went to the fold down and no problems after that. They have a slim line now but have no experience with that unit. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

As long as it doesn't void the warranty, I would go with the oil tests to determine change intervals. You can also have a filter checked to determine change intervals on that. You may be able to go to 12,000 if tests results are good, and change the filter at 6,000. The only issue with extended...

They had numerous problems a while back and I wonder if they are corrected? How old is your unit? At a recent meeting I saw a Thermoking unit and it seemed identical to a proheat. Pricey at almost 10K. Have the new models already had these upgrades? We are considering another new truck purchase...

That would be my plan. You will be able to talk to just about anyone in the industry there. Check out the forums here and the archives so you have an idea of what questions you have once you arrive. Welcome to EO Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

We needed a hose a couple of months ago in IL and the closest one was in Bridgeport CT. Later they found 1 and only 1 in Memphis TN. They certainly need a better parts distribution Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

Not sure as many factors go into the bid. Alot would depend on your company's rating. NLM awards loads on a point system. The lowest price bid doesn't necessarily mean you are awarded the load. Coverage, on time, bid placement on all loads & time, ect make a difference. More information is...

Even with the political problems out there, this is still the greatest country. Where else could you have this kind of banter and not get arrested? From different opinions comes great ideas. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

well i hope you guys are right....its friday at 2.45 and i have had one 70 mile run this week... randy If that continues you should consider selling sandwiches out of your van. A 70 mile run out of Detroit for the week is pretty questionable. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator
