Recent adventure: Was supposed to pick up 4 bins for about 2200 lbs when got there they had 5 ready for 2900 lbs. I said do not put on the 5th one I'll take the 4 that I was dispatched on. Shipper said he paid for the whole van. E-1 asked why I wouldn't take it when I had room and said alot of...

I get 22-24 mpgs you do the math....the moves worth it. But I don't think Bucyrus would be necesary...Beaverdams would do fine as a jumping point.

I think the C units have taken the biggest hit with the Sprinter then CV's. NLM loads us up 6 of that double stacked, 8 of those. I don't care for that much.

At least at E-1 we are reimbursed for the bigger load ALL the time don't have to negotiate or beg. And I personally won't overload my van. I refuse to take it. Not to sweat it,there'll always be another load.

that would be char-broiled owl???

And we back here in the east are supposed to do what? Feel remorse regret? On the flip side some just maybe truely stuck in thier situation and can't get anything done about it cuz they are surrounded by stars and high profile people....save a toad, burn a house.

Every year we here of these destructive fires... Why don't they have a grass eradication(control) program out 1 mile from all housing? Wouldn't it be cheaper then all this every year?

Moot...I understand: Just cause its bigger doesn't mean its better!*snickers*

I think small straight is just a designation for the rate of pay an identifier of the equipment. Real truck??? Now that hurt!! *L*

LBD said "To be classified as a C unit a truck has to be dock high, have 14' of floor space and scale 5k. Sprinters, as good as they are, fall short on all three scales. Should they be another category in between? I personally think so even though I don't run any of them. I think they should be...

I personally think its getting way to automated instead of good ole fashioned contact and common sense. A dispatcher should more in tune with his companies calling patterns and move the fleet around more effectively. Its called work and thinking!! EI: Why move eveyone to Atlanta when there are...

I don't understand that??? The cost of a sprinter and maintainence for .77 cents???? They can charge a C load rate and only pay ...what??? you guys are getting ripped! PS...and don't give me that line of garbage that ya make it up in volume...whats lost is lost...

Agreed.:)

Hondaking..it is my understanding and I maybe wrong but Panther doesn't pay extra for a Sprinter???

yeah Greg read post 3.....*L*:)

exerpt from another Howard speech... He said a commitment to jihad and extreme attitudes towards women were two problems unique to Muslims that previous intakes of migrants from Europe did not have, and that Australia wanted people to assimilate and adopt Australian ways. Mr Howard said today...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Are..."BORDERS on moronic" He didn't say you crossed the line yet??? Darn...I border on moronic even psychotic at times... Tommy Lee Jones in the Fugitive quote " I don't care" Pelicn...I agree sometimes in rough times one has to lower thier...

There's been a lot of talk of late about the L word... Hmmm Luck? Spin the Wheel, Russian Roulette, Expediting, Mega Lotto.

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening I know your motives quite well and it does stimulate the "other side" of the story. You and I have often fenced with each other without getting personal. As far as news stories they should always be taken in the context of which they were...
