    Saying "no" to cheap freight!!

    Re: Saying "no" to cheap freight!! The problem is most CEO's make their decisions based on what will help them the most, they have no long term thinking beyond the next bonus cycle. And why should they, the typical CEO has a golden parachute to walk away with, while the people who...

    Saying "no" to cheap freight!!

    Say they have a load they charged their customer $1000 to do, they could pay their O/O $800 to do that load or post it and get it done for $600, that's $200 more profit for them. The corporate world would say it's stupid not to do it that way.

    Re: Headlights on buzzer... I didn't have any power tools and I was able to get it off without any problem. I will have to scan the bill and send it to you so you can see what they said, something about since there was an extra pulley on the balancer that is what gave them issues. Im pretty...

    Nice!!! But you didn't get to enjoy the warm weather long. Sounds like an entertainment load, do you know who's stuff you are hauling? One thing about nyc do you have a truck gps? If not just watch signs and never follow your gps onto anything that says parkway, will turn your sprinter into a...

    The tag was missing from my van, the one in the bone yard said 3.72 and when I installed it everything worked so mine must have been the same. I am a little disappointed that Mercedes didn't put a plug so that you can disconnect the abs sensors, having to splice them in does not seem like the...
