    Michelin Super Singles

    We have also considered putting these on the lift axle and then we can rotate them back to the drives when needed and this way we would also have a spare ======================================= That was exactly my thoughts. I think it would be a must and give you alittle insurance...

    a fireplace in your sleeper

    Michelin Super Singles

    We had looked at these last year, but had concerns if one was damaged, very difficult to find road repair assistance and tire availability. So we ditched to effort. Keep in mind, that was a year ago. Not sure what has changed. Additionally, for some of the same reasons, I would only consider...

    One of Us or One of Them?

    I wouldn't worry too much about someones perception on whether we have it better or we don't. As a fleet owner, I am on the front line as a mod all the time. Talk about a place to throw darts:7 Alot of fleet owners would cringe at such exposure over a long period of time. If you are a fair and...

    Building CR & DR Units

    AC lines that go into the box are the reason along with a repair being easier curb side. I do agree that Thermoking is the only unit really designed for underbody mounting. After about the second or third year, they aquire a huge amount of rust and corrosion which results in constant downtime...

    Give me Water I have no Bread

    I think it is a matter of looking at "whether the glass is half empty, or half full". If expediting ceased to exist tomarrow, my world would be far from over. Why? Because I have made the investments and personal choices to avoid that type of adversity. In my younger days when people bought that...

    Give me Water I have no Bread

    My goal was to encourage a view of the reality of what is happening and where this reality is heading. There are thousands of employees of other USA industries who have seen this reality hit their careers. They, in fact, now face bankruptcy, foreclosure, repossessions, homelessness, and abject...

    Type of equipment

    Hotshot companies in the gulf region use pickups. Mostly TX and LA is where you see the largest number of them. As far as expedite, I believe CTX use to have them, but not sure now. I would call their respective recruiters for current information. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

    Money Maker?

    You often see these setups at the Memphis terminal. They are regular Fedex reefer trailers pulled by owner operators. Quite a few have appeared since they are doing their reefer network freight. Basically reefer loads that aren't exclusive like CC would do. Davekc owner 22 years...

    Where did it go???

    I do agree with Phil on one point. A campground or park would win out every time before I would waste any time at the TA in Ontario. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

    Stop complaining about...........

    Sometimes people confuse something negative for what may be a reality. It doesn't mean it is bad, they just don't like the message. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator
