    Hey Murray, what's the talk about a monthly bonus at Rush? Why would they not pay you weekly all that you earned? OP is talking about an $500 - $800 weekly bonus. See OP's post #20

    July locations, drama and weather.

    Started Monday mid afternoon with a Milwaukee to Saskatoon, then DH (fuel paid) down to Williston ND to p/u a small crate going to Philipsburg PA. Over 3,500 miles by 7 am Friday morning. Got a good week going, helps with the few bad weeks I've had recently.

    Deleted by me. OP changed his numbers. See post #15 then look at post #18. They have changed. He originally stated $1,900 for 3,500 miles, now he changed it to 1,900 miles. BIG Difference!!

    Cruise control install

    On my old cv, a 1999 GMC, I purchased a kit from this place. http://www.thecruisecontrolstore.com/ez-catalog/X380183/0001 I installed it myself, everything was in the kit. They also have on their web site some authorized installers. The one I was going to use was in Michigan, north of Detroit...

    New Transit at Expo

    They don't have a clue where interest rates will be when it's finally available! LOL. I think their bringing it because people are already starting to lose interest. I wanted to get one this fall but I'm actually thinking of taking another look at the new Dodge. You probably won't have a new...

    Our first month out with Fed Ex

    I live in a small city in Milwaukee County and when I used to drive T/T I would take it home for lunch some days, or borrow a straight truck for a weekend. Never even got stopped! The Mayor lives right next door, the building inspector 1st house around the corner and the head of the DPW right...

    July locations, drama and weather.

    Dropped my Waukesha delivery, within the hour I was picking up 6 miles away going to Centralia IL. I checked for trucks, only 2 vans sitting near Centralia. Nothing else within 50 miles of there. So should I sit there alone? Or, should I drop and run to St Louis and be with the other 80 trucks...

    My bad day!

    It went farther then it should because I had two battery's connected through my battery isolator. It ran about from 22:15 until 2:30 before it stopped. I'd say about 200+ miles. Thank God I don't get too many days like that. My first thoughts were to get the freight delivered. I was in Battle...
