It all depends on the place. Seems as though every one is different. I have been to Race tracks with mine, campgrounds and each one has a different opinion. When told NO, they always offered a near by solution. You may not park where the other folks do, but my experience says they will get you...

Leo, I have heard that a number of times. I think it has always been up around 280 in Tri State country. Flying J there. You are right about Memphis. The Pilot there was unreal. I could right a short book on my six hours there about a year ago. Wow! That place could use some serious patrol. On...

Right back at you. I am sure we will see each other again. Maybe we can have a coffee and complain about our pick ups. :) Raceman OTR O/O

Yes I pick up at Faxon at least once a day and upto three times a day. If things are normal I am there between 2100 and 2200 M-F and 1700 on sat. Raceman OTR O/O

Oh calm down! Not getting married or anything great like that. I met Hooligan yesterday at one of my stops. I hear he and Lawrence are kind of related. Well at least their dogs are. :0 Hooligan good to meet you and enjoyed talking. I actually run into P2 Van and straight trucks all the time at...

I agree with DaveKC and Vernon. I have always bought used trucks with exception of one van that my daughter runs. This is why I am trying to get the person to say what the problems are. I bet it they are just overwhelmed at this point but that they are not big deals. Raceman OTR O/O

If you are selling it after only 23,800 miles it sounds like you must be unhappy with more than just AllTypes? Take it to DHL or FED Ex Ground or go to the airport and shop yourself around there for air freight. Are you selling it because of AllTypes? Raceman OTR O/O

RE: Greiger Motors AAAA++++++ Panther2 AAAAA++++ Mike, my kids are 16, 21 24 and 26 or maybe 27. anyway, I see from your POST or response to Hondaking you are starting to see why I am happy with this dedicated I do. Seeing family each day is worth some amount of dollars. Right? Remeber we...

I am sorry to hear of your problems and hope things work out for you. I do want to say a few things as the bad guy, so to speak, that may spark some thoughts or ideas. First of all you bought a used truck. Now I am sure the entire story is not listed because your post is not that long. Now...

Just a comment on your item number 2. Pay for actual miles. If and when you get a company to do that you will have evry trucker in the, atleast U.S. as your best freind. To the best of my knowledge there is not a company out there that actually pays a contracted truck the ACTUAL MILES. The way...

RE: Greiger Motors AAAA++++++ Panther2 AAAAA++++ Very happy to hear you are moving along. Nice looking Sprinter. I am wondering why you needed a CDL for a Sprinter. I love your goal of a second vehicle. If the business was booming. I am always told how straight forward I am and that includes...

I know where I had planned to make big changes when I was a fleet ownwer. That figure was $3.25 and above. Now that I have one paid for truck and a dedicated run, well I see no figure that would stop me based on the current pay. I have no deadhead and run 10 to 12 hours a day six days a week...

I think DaveKC provided some good input in another POST on this subject. I do want to say a few things here that many of you should take to heart and keep in mind as you grow as business people and owners. I hope it helps. I know many folks will never accept this but it is the cold hard fact...

On Thursday I saw a white Kenworth Express1 truck pull into a BP here in Sharonville, Ohio and from across the street, in my E1 shirt and hat I waved. I am sure you are still wondering who I am. Well if you are an EO member you now know. I also saw a PantherII truck coming through Cincinnati on...

Well there for awhile I thought I delivered your Cincy load. When you said the O/O was kicking and swearing, well that was not me. I was woke up yesterday to take two skids to the BMC here on Crescentville rd because a Van was turned away. I delivered to BMCs for awhile and buddy they are never...

I may be reading this all wrong and if so I apoligize. What I was saying in my POST above is that I have had many people with great looking trucks stand and tell me how bad it is. They are going broke and in that same breath tell me all they have turned down. My point was, if these folks are...

X06, maybe I am missing something. If folks are saying how bad they are doing, no miles, no money, don't know how much longer they can keep the truck. That dedicated run would look pretty good I would think. It is a hell of a lot more than what they claim they currently make. I guess I don't...

DaveKC is right on. I picked up the TRUCKPAPER and there where 10 or 12 in there and the prices are getting reasonable. As you know from my POSTS I am down to one truck. The one I drive. I have a dedicated run six days a week. I use the days hours and SUNDAY to shine my chrome, than God for...

Wow! here is a first I think every answer so far is right. LDB is dead on. The companies make big money lease us the QC. You will never make me see it differently. The lease is to their benefit. RichM is right and Terry is right. Your best bet is to find out if carries will let you have your...

Would this be your Sprinter or would you driver for someone? If it would be as a driver for an owner, don't move now. I talk to guys in all size trucks everyday, six days a week at a Transmission plant that I run for. The van and Sprinters all indicate slow to moderate freight. Straight trucks...
