As depressing as Moose's post is, I really believe he is right.Rates may go up, but I doubt that we'll see any of it. The carriers have gotten all too greedy, at the expense of the drivers.Look at the fuel surcharge, for example.They have no business getting any of it at all. But they do.Just...

I admire your courage to set out and save money by doing things yourself.However,From what you have said about the new truck you are going to purchase, I think it is too light duty of a truck for what you are going to do with it.I imagine it has no bigger horsepower than 225, at the most.I'd go...

I agree with you, OVM, it isn't right to be locked into a rate.Policies such as this is what is keeping me from going to a big co.Where has our freedom and power gone as a o/o?

I had the same setup in my 10-wheeler.I used a fridge from lowes, which I would get a little over 2.5 years out of trouble free. The inverter I used was from the Petro, it was a Sima 3,000 watt continuous, 5,000 watt peak.I ran the fridge off the inverter when I was going down the road, and off...

Posts have a strange way of doing that from time to time.I'm just wondering if I am the "one in every crowd". Sorry to go off like that, but enough is enough.Maybe I should of worded it differently or something, and if I offended anyone, I apologize.

As told to me via my local k-w dealer, a cab-over is still available for over the road, in addition to the vocational market. There is a large co out of california that still runs cabovers,and are a relatively new fleet of model year trucks.International had the roomiest cabover, by moving the...

At $1.00 per mile, I think that is more than what is being offered from carriers to leased drivers. I would of done it, while trying to secure a return load of some kind.Keep in touch, let me know how you do with this, if you don't mind.And the best of luck to you.

And what is wrong with just being leased to a carrier instead of having your own authority? Look at Expeditor services. He has enough trucks to start his own expediting company, but he chose to just lease his trucks/drivers on with different co's instead.I admire him for that. And as far as...

So what crawed up your *** to reply to my simple question the way you did.Did someone steal your sheep from your farm in Indiana? Who said anything about TRYING with a carrier. All I asked was if someone had a van on with All-state,how are they doing? Past threads/posts will be old and...

I do know that anyone leased to a company leased out of nc it is the state law to have it, resident or not.

Is anyone leased to All-State with a van give me some input, on this forum, or private? Thanks in advance.

A cabover is still available from Kenworth and Peterbuilt through special order.

That brings back many memories of being married to my blonde ex-wife..... but a very good joke.

Well, to be honest with you, I am with a small n.c. company, in a van,and am starving.I am in the process of looking for another company, but being careful in doing this. It may be just as bad somewhere else. But I feel there is more freight than what I am being led to believe from the company I...

Well,, while were at it, does anyone have a van at All-State? I would just like input from a driver that is leased there, with a van. Pm me if you wnat to. Thanks in advance.

In light of my awesome week, (lol) I had the opportunity to meet up with a couple of real nice van drivers, one from Canada, leased to Ka-Dac, and the other from Pennsylvania, leased to Fed-Ex.In these tough times, it is nice to see and know that we can have a civil conversation and put our...

And I thank you for your honesty.I'll be looking forward to your e-mail. Havea great weekend. I'm in Perrysburg, going back to the house in the morning.Had a great week, 300 loaded miles...whew!!!! lol.
