The load we turned down was from St paul to Cedar Rapids IA. Later we got a load from that same area to SC. Glad we waited. Not a ton of freight coming out of IA

we are currently using a kycerra phone with software to use the internet. Kinda slow. curious on set up someone else has that might be better.

we were with roberts and when they changed to fedup we were not interested in all the game playing. Ran into a team in MN and they had been there for four days. Pretty sad if you ask me. We were there one day and turned one load down.

for what ever it is worth, the cummins a/c problems were tied to excessive vibration that developed over several months. Problems were seperate but numerous. Everything from cracked brackets, belt and pulley alignment issues to several compressor replacements. The one we had could have been...

should have mentioned that the truck gen is a stand alone unit. We have a ICT sleeper and the a/c is a roof mount. Good unit as you can be in Arizona's 105 degree heat and it is still throwing ice cubes!!

From what I have heard, there is alot going on there. They lost there exclusitivity on GM. Small one pallet loads are going to air frieght. Not good if you own a van. Teams will always do better. All of the rest of GM expedite loads are going on the internet for bids. I heard Panther was trying...

Assuming you are looking past resale I think Weave's post is pretty accurate. However, How a truck is taken care of from the start has more value than anything. I have a fl70 with over 800000 on it. I am not sure it is all luck. Also have a 99 KW with a cat and have had no problems as of yet. I...

truckgen just opened another repair facility besides there main one in Jacksonville, Fl. One on each end of town. They do good work on my unit without game playing ect. Certainly know there stuff. We have one of there units for a year now and are very satisfied with it. Puts a aux or a rigmaster...

like I put in a earlier post. If it is a frieghtliner with a cummins engine, plan on numerous a/c repairs. Had a previous freightliner with this set up and it was a piece of junk. Went to a Kenworth with a cat and haven't had one problem. It is a 99, 300.

Gambler, you are correct. All companies would want straight trucks instead of vans. At tri-state the bulk of van loads are GM. With that out of the picture I would say they currently have way to many vans for the frieght. Any of these companies will be more accomadating to straight trucks and...

We put this post on and no one responded. Either real busy or real broke. Anyone know???

We would appreciate any current info on how teams are doing with a "D" unit at panther. Looking for gross revenue info, how much deadhead and sitting ect. The usual stuff....debating on whether to stay with current company or move. Panther pays a little better per mile but can they keep you...

Here is what I heard. Not sure if it is true but the information seemed pretty reliable. We run team and have been staying pretty busy so far. Runs have been averaging in the 6 to 700 range. GM has decided to air frieght all single pallet loads @ $8.00 a pound. Secondly, all loads are posted on...

I am sure using lucas has something to do with it. Synthetics would work as well but are more expensive. The 99kw we have should do ok because it doesn't experience cold hard starts with a block heater off the generator. Synthetics might be good here in the dead of winter up north. Be forwarned...

Here is an update. 250 has 804,300 on it today. completed trip to miami and back. Yes we use lucas every change at about 14 to 15000. That number is based on oil test at speedco every 4th time. As for weight, the first 5 years was general expedite with roberts express. average load was about 2...
