    deicer in a straight truck air lines ?

    The trailer brakes and lines can freeze. The main time I would use it when dropping and hooking in cold weather. The tractor was not usually the problem the darn frozen up trailers were for me at least.

    Next truck, asap or by early summer

    I was told it was broker rules. I know at the ford/ mazda plant I ran a load to there a few months ago outside of detroit and I saw a few old beaters running around loading. Maybe they were newer older looking beaters.

    Next truck, asap or by early summer

    No greg its the broker rules. And seriously if the freight is picked up in any truck they will load it. I have seen some spooky old trucks before loading at gm and ford and I mean super old rough beat up trucks and they loaded them. But ford and gm are not the only 2 shippers in our industry...

    van for newbies

    At the end of the day as long as the freight is moved and the van is safe and road worthy and not a total eye sore with dents and broken up parts and not rusted out. Why wouldn't a van like this work. you can insulate the windows so nobody can see in and then you will also have rear heat and ac...
