I know what you are saying, but it is what it is..nothing I can do about it, either accept it or move on, as with many things with many carriers.Sure, it is frustrating, being close to the holidays, but it is in the contract, so it is not like it is something that was just thought up, either.I...

It has been brought to my attention by another collegue of mine, that this is deducted annually from each driver, as to when he signs on,not all drivers at once, as it may appear on here.

I tell you what, If you enjoy getting reamed dry,go to Superior Truck service out of Anderson/Indianapolis area.The more I pursue this, the more I found out about him,and his not so coolways of screwing the o/o.I have listed several complaints with Truckdown services, to no end.

And wouldnt that be the same as paying his employees the highest in the industry???????? DUH !!!

I have used it, (Lucas) in everything I have,including their transmission treatment, and have had excellent results with it all.The one truck I sold, a 1998 fl-70 with a 3126 in it,is still running at 938,000 miles, untouched.Unopened.It had Lucas run in it from day one.The new owner called me...

Oh, that was cold,real cold...lol.. Actually,I dont care how long or short a run is, as long as it pays decent..short ones can add up real fast, making a good week.

Talk about timing sucking.....Had a personal matter come up, and I dont know how long I may be out of service..Of course, right before Christmas...

That is what I am trying to say...The DOT officer in youre freinds case interpreted the law wrong, and it was proven, and dismissed.The same thing as I was trying to say....

The bottom line is, the carrier really has absolutely no business taking money from the FSC given to drivers except for a little hadling fee, like John says or suggests.The carrier doesnt pay for the fuel, WE DO !!!!! So what reason or right do they have from taking what should be ours in the...

It may be older, but not dead to you, right? It's a good thing youre doing,researching.The biggest problem I see with the "attic" type box is mpg, handling, etc.I know the ambassodor of freight, Letzrockexpress, gets around 13 with his Ford srw 12' box, which is sloped from above the windshield...

But getting back to the mudflap thing, I could never understand why somany put these cheesy,garbage quality mudflaps on a truck, so short, only to be replacing them in the winter when they get brittle and break? There is a place in Richmond,Ind, across from the Petro, that is a chrome shop.He...

I realize there is no perfect company out there, but, from a drivers point of view, I see them as close as it gets.Very few driver complaints, probably the fewest in the E.O. nation. Who"s side am I on, many may be wondering.Nobody's.I remain neutral,and call it as I see it.

It is not only about the temp of the tire, outside air, etc, but also the peace of mind knowing if you encounter a situation un expectantly, youre prepared for it.How many deliveries do we in a van,come upon, that takes us in the middle of no where?Being too cheap for something that is a...

The biggest problem with the rules and regulations is the officers way of interpreting the law/regulation.It all depands on how he sees the law,his own view.This has been admitted to me by many DOT officers as well as a few High School freinds who have become DOT officers as well.

My question is this: If Load One can do all that they are doing for their drivers,( 100% of the fsc to the drivers,Driver appreciation day pay,Thanksgiving pay,Above-normal pay,Layover pay, relocation pay,etc,)And still turn a profit and expand in many different directions, why can't other...

I would get the highest, widest, and longest box you can get, that will fit on your truck legally.If it is a used one, make sure the floor is made to withstand a towmotor.Some are not.Check for fllor wood thickness,crossmember spacing, etc.Also, get thebiggest door opening as possible.I had the...

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Cheri, happy birthday to you !!

The holiday season is upon us,and there is so much to be thankful for, even the small things we take for granted each and everyday. I may complain about the lack of room in the van, but then I see a homeless person sleeping under a bridge and think to myself that I could be like that myself...

I have the Cobra 7000 and love it, although not perfect, it does work good.Their customer service is awesome, as well.

You have a point,oh wise freightmaster.Maybe I should of said they havent offered me a load below the contracted rate..going to bed now, rough night...I hate fog.
