The big problem is that, at least so far, everything that I have looked into to date pays even LESS than what I am making now. Hard to move for less money. Going broke makes more sense. :(

Yep, for a dry box. I need more like $1.75 base for my truck.

I would take $1.40 IF I needed to get home and it was headed that way, better than DH. I like to get AT LEAST $1.60 for dry freight. More if it has "add on's". Everyone has different ideas, I think that many out here are far too willing to run cheap. That is contributing to the rates...

Nope, it was not a good rate 6 years ago when fuel was a lot lower than it is today. It is a VERY bad rate now. Not much better than DH money.

Thanks for the info, must stay here though, Mrs. Layout is asleep.

Darn, thought I had that fixed. We are headed right downtown for a 9AM delivery. Would MUCH rather do that at 3AM.

Good luck with it.

We have a "D" unit and it is a REAL pain in Manhattan. What is sad is that we know our way in and out.

It will NOT be fun but one has to do what one has to do. I just lost a week and a ton of money to repairs. I have to make it up somehow. It pays good, I take it. The hassle is just part of the business.

These people are good as well. I have dealt with two locations and both were very good. Western Branch Diesel MTU|Detroit Diesel|Alison Transmission|Power Generation

It does seem that lately they are trying to run down the rates that they pay reefer trucks. TVAL loads are far and few between now. Just a year ago they were a huge percentage of our work and over all revenue. We have seen offers for TVAL/reefer that most dry box trucks could not afford to run...

We are now sitting at the Petro in Bordentown, NJ. We are waiting here prior to our delivery in NYC tomorrow. Have a PRIMO spot on the front line of "Expediter Row"!! :) Now officially bored.

The stats bear out that the majority of truck/car accidents in the US are the fault of the car, not the truck.

Bambi was a Disney perversion of an old German political satire. It was also a VERY BAD cartoon having done considerable damage to modern conservation efforts. The personification of animals has lead many "city people" to really believe that animals "love" each other and play and sing and I want...

Don't presume to think you know how I feel, although you should by now. I have no use for Dingell, but even less for a pervert. Next thing you know he will be molesting kids, assuming he has not already. I don't think Dingell was ever that bad. We, as a Nation have to begin to demand a much...

Now in Orlando. Pick up here tomorrow heading for NYC. :( Could not afford to turn it down. Then Monday from NJ to IN. :) I like that one!

No, I wanted him gone because he is a disgusting, lying pervert. He is just the tip of the iceberg. That is why they ALL should go! Clean out the opium den and start over. THEY ALL SUCK!! VOTE "EM ALL OUT!!

Better yet, an entire sack of White Castle cheeseburgers, take them home, get a HUGE bags of chips, some dip and a few beers to wash it all down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not uncommon for eagles to try to take prey of that size. Most likely had a nest in the area. Too bad it lost it. Deer are there to be eaten. It is one of the main reasons they exist. Nothing to feel sorry about except that the poor eagle lost it's load. It was NOT Bambi!! the ONLY place...

Hey!! Be nice!! LOL!! You know, I have known several people who ate right, worked out etc. All younger than me and they all died healthier than this old fart!! All that HEALTHY stuff will kill you!! :eek:
