Still in Tn, had to go out of service this morning to get the van looked at...ended up being the alignment was way out of whack..imagine that, after getting it done last week in Detroit..last time for those guys.Everything else is perfect, they said.So nice to drive it now without fighting with...

Got a load from Canton, Mi to Manchester, Tn, del'd this afternoon,but on the way there Jeremy called and said he might have one picking up at the consignee going to St.Louis, but it didnt happen..He tried to salvage the slow week, he did his best. May go into town in the am to get my van...

This I just dont understand..Carriers that require a person to carry Primary insurance..(everything in one bundle), as if you hold youre own authority, but pay you leased owner-operator rates...Makes no sense..Prestige used to be that way,and a few others.I have a freind who is leased on with 2...

Yes, this is the best way to detect air leaks.I used to do this when I would adjust the brakes and grease the truck every 5,000 miles. There are 2 guys that are freightliner vetran mechanics,in Cleveland, that are extremely good, doing work on the side.They will do it right, or not at all.They...

The Bendix AD-9 is known as the workhorse of the air dryer industry.The other one, more commonly used, Wabco system saver 1000, has a spin-on filter, similar to an oil filter.I found it easier to just replace the AD-9 with a reman every year, before winter.They can be found from Freightliner on...

I wonder if there is an out of balance tire ,a broken belt in the tire on that side as one problem, than the rotor or caliper/clip/pads also, creating another problem? had that happen.

I saw them, and tried the largest on, but was convinced that after a washing, they'd shrink to the point of not wearable.Nice shirts, but not large enough for my plump figure...They were snug new.

I am wondering the same thing here...all I have been doing is mostly smaller runs...Last week, did a whopping 343 loaded miles..this week, so far, did a huge 412 loaded miles...This aint good...The last load I took was a 3,672# er, and it paid less than a load within my limit..go...

I am, however, hoping for a long run during the weekend to make the week come out good.I have the upmost faith in our dispatchers.

I wonder if I can get some on Sat?I'd like 10 of them, size 4xl, half blue, half black.I missed the arrival of them today...lol

Oh, youre going to pay for that one....lol..I may relocate to ft wayne....lol..Paybacks....:D

Now that is one sweet van, anyone have a link to this? Wonder what the GVW is on it, should be above 10,000 GVW

Been doing alot of local runs this week, that paid very well...something is better than nothing.Heard a driver rip into dispatch over local runs and thought, what a nice attitude! It's the name of the game, take this time to get things done otherwise.I put a new front suspension on the van, new...

I have a freind in N.C. that received an estimate for $1.50 per square foot of sprayed in insulation on his van.

You had the same thoughts as I ? ....lol:eek: It could be worse, we could be at Panther...lol

Ya know, I never did get around to buying a set as I had planned earlier this year.But I was and am surprised at how well my Firestone Transforce a/t's did in the deep snow, ice, etc.They really surprised me.I may just skip the snow tire thing altogether next year.

I think they are only hiring straight trucks at this time, but not 100% sure.PM John on here, he'll let you know.Awesome people to work for!

I dont drink coffee...only like the smell of it, especially when you break the paper seal on a new jar.

Did a shortie today, anything is better than nothing.Hopefully it gets busier this week..
