    Bolt is a Joke, Bolt hauls nothing but...

    I know Ceva has a set rate for their drivers. Now as a straight driver I can haul at a van rate if I choose, but usually that would be offered to me as a backhaul. They would never call me and offer me a van load out of my homebase. If hey can't find a Ceva driver then they go down the list...

    Message to anyone traveling I69 or I465 In Indianapolis, In

Here is a link to what is closed. Looks Like southbound I69 , eastbound 465 near I 69 and the...

    Bolt is a Joke, Bolt hauls nothing but...

    Bolt came up in a discussion at the local Ceva office. Ceva uses Bolt because they will haul for cheaper alot of the time. Not sure if this helps or hurts your discussion. But I decided to put it out there:)

    October location...

    Well, I was in my home state, I could understand if I was in another state. I have another 2 years a 3 months. Next truck will be the extended cab or a coffin sleeper. I only do a road trip about once a week, so a king size sleeper like some of you have is way overkill. I have time to...

    Cold Start

    when should you refuse a load?

    I meant two three or more weeks out before going home. I think it is the combination of the economy, although things seem to be getting better for the time being. Also the company you are leased to is concerned with getting a load delivered on time as the customer requests. They don't care if...
