Oh come on Dave the truck has only been down seven weeks out of sixty weeks, not counting oil changes. I think my truck is just on it's own hours of service breaks. I am just trying to get my mandatory rest break to coincide with the trucks. But I have a hard time sleeping that long. Heck my...

Try calling 260.478.2735 ask for Domestic Dispatch, that should get you a start. You might want to ask for the Operations manager instead of the Station manager, depends on the size of the place if they are one in the same. One good thing about EGL is that they will not put on more trucks than...

This is the second time for this repair. There is a problem with the lines that are around the pumps and PLD(?) that are coming loose and need to be replaced. There is a kit that the dealers are going to stock so they fix em as they get towed in. As soon as they send me the repair Paper work...

Double yeeeeehaaaaawwwww, Wife just got her hazmat.

EGL will hire a newbe only if he has one year of experience in the equipment size that they want to sign on with the company. They recently came up with a policy that after one year with them that you can move up one size, I think that is a great idea for the most part until you can go up to T/T...

Sorry I did not provide some info but I already have a truck. but the info you provided will help others who come here looking for info. Jim

I might be able to help with "agent" that is anyone who is not an O/O signed on with EGL. So if they cannot cover a load (Local or Hotshot) tyhey will get another company to do it, and pay them 90% or 100% of the tariff. If it is a EGL O/O they will get their % of the Tariff, A straight truck is...

Just Passed my Haz Mat one to go.

I have been running a "D" truck in expediting for around 2 1/2 years with EGL. The wife was running a Van with them for around a year doing local P/D. in the Dayton area. Now that we are empty nesters we have been planing this move for over two years. While I know the life style of the road I...

Well the wife finally got her Class "B" today. (yehaw) Now just the hazmat test for us both and we will be on the way. Talked to the Panther guy on the phone, he said around 2500 / 3500 miles per week would be a fair number of miles for us as a Team in a "D" unit. With 15 / 20% dead head on top...

Just ran into one our Sprinter drivers getting his Transmission ser., he brought his own filters ( Stoops had none in stock ) and his bill was 250.00.

Started out in Dayton area where I live so the miles should not be considered. 75 miles to the terminal. P/U on the way to the terminal in Sharonville area $12.47 fuel sur chg. .38 P/U at the Cincy airport on the way still 6.50...

He is a O/O just like us. Has a city truck (day cab). EGL is a whole different game than what the rest of us normaly do. Go to the terminal (station) pickup your Delivery bills count the stuff and then bust your a$$ all day long. Most of the time your truck is loaded with 12 skids and then suff...

He drives right at 50k per year. Yes they have a large Station down by the airport.

Well That is why I was asking, maybe they were talking all miles driven. That would make it a day in the shade for a team. Using 6 days a week times 4.3 weeks a month would put you at 814 miles a day. still a lot, but can be done. I want to say that I am not trying to pry but get a good handle...

How many miles are you guys running deadhead to get that 21,000 miles paid? Do you get some pay for the deadhead or mostly take it on the chin. I really have something to look forward to in a few weeks. Those miles are what I got into trucking to do. We plan on staying out around 3 to 4 weeks...

21,000 a week would be great but I meant a month
