Rejoice, my friend.

Yes it's true. Even straight trucks or tractors that have only day cabs already log. To comply with being off duty for 10 hours, the driver must be somewhere other than the driver's seat. He can put a sleeping bag on the ground, or kick back the jump seat and sleep. You would log as 10 hours...

Before you guys start getting upset about what the carrier keeps, just remember that they assume a level of risk that you never will.

I guess my only issue is whether you are really getting the whole story from this guy. Did you see his pay or was it what he said?

Ross, C & M is in Painesville, OH. Check with them as well.

254" wheelbase. What's hard about that? It has a 60in sleeper and 24 ft flatbed. No different than a D unit.

I am confused as to whether they are 2 years into this deal currently, or 2 MONTHS into it. If two months, then I would definitely look at finding your own financing an refinance it.

Just a fancy name for a broker.

Just read an article somewhere about Hino debuting a class 8 back in 2007. Wait, I think now that it was a press release on Hino's website. Just city tractors right now, I believe. Don't know if I've ever seen one.

Well so far, no one has really mentioned anything about the Detroit engine. Like a DD 60 series. Any props? On a strictly class 8 level, how do the brands compare?

You mean Fedex CC uses DHL for trippak? They can't get a better deal internally?

Ok. Tell the truth. Was the cruise control on?

Lots and lots of info already posted. Please use the search feature.

What happened to their Express Critical trucks. Do they still have any of the leasees left over from the Emery/Menlo takeover, or do they now just handle it as a 3PL?

Here's the deal: Fuel keeps rising because the dollar is weak in international trading. The dollar is weak because the Fed keeps lowering the interest rate. The Fed keeps lowering the interest rate to try and stave off the mass of foreclosures that will occur because people borrowed too...

Another reason I prefer 60mph.

David, The only pitfall of common carrier in my mind is that you must file both your liability AND cargo insurance w/ the Fed. Not only that, but I believe you must have a set of published tariffs, whereas a contract carrier works based on contracts between himself and his brokers/shippers...
