Some of the advantages of a big company. Fedex has glass coverage with $100 deductible, Landstar is $0 deductible, 2 free windshields a year. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

Can't believe nobody own or drives one. I see them on the road all the time. Oh well...

That is just too cool.

Very [emoji22]. Early in my expediting career I talked to a team in a sprinter. They had a generator mounted on the front of the van, in front of the grill. One night they almost didn't make it. They had the generator running and the wind was blowing CO into the van. He woke up to go to the...

Those $50 add up pretty quickly. I choose to keep those in my pocket instead of giving them to the hotel owners.

Starman, we don't call others names if we disagree with them. This behavior is prohibited in the Code of Conduct that you agreed with when you signed on. Secondly, this industry used to be a lot more rewarding. Things like detention, layover, hand load/unload were more or less an automatic...

I don't think you are an idiot. Maybe you need to look at other companies. I was with your company for a lot of years and I made good money. Eventually they changed some rules and I wasn't making money any more so I jumped ship.

DEF's purpose is to reduce NOx on a diesel. On a gasser reducing NOx is easily done with the EGR so... Now DPF, the truth is that all gasoline engines with direct injection are terrible about the particulates they put out. Just look at the exhaust pipe of any of them and you will see the black...

Not bad. Hope that the new one serves you just as long if not longer. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

How many miles on the old lady? What year? Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

Cool. I know the 4 is not available any more, but thought you might have found a brand new leftover with the 4 cyl. What happened with your old one?

I've been doing the expediting thing since 2005 and there was no time in my expediting career that I wasn't able to support my family. I drove a Sprinter from 2005 to 2016 and since then a straight truck solo. I changed some companies since I started, and I made money with all companies, from...

Text message on your phone?

Congrats! Is it a brand new one with the 6 cyl or an older one with the 4?

What do you use to check codes? Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

Speaking of the MBE900, I like mine. I bought my truck in March 2016 with 555k miles on it. I just passed 650k and all I've done to the engine was the injector lines and transfer tubes. A couple of them were leaking a bit, so I bought a set on eBay for $150 and changed them myself and the fan...

A friend of mine with a 2014 had camshaft replaced at around 130k paid from his pocket, then at a bit over 300k a camshaft (don't remember if it was the same one or not) messed up and destroyed the head, etc. He ended up replacing the whole engine. Sent from my LG-H918 using Tapatalk

Never mind. I read the mileage in the location thread.

Ugh. I remember those phone calls in my FedEx days. Insane. Then I switched to Landstar and they never bothered me. Load 1 is almost like Landstar in this respect. Only twice I got calls like this in my year and a half and one was because of the Omnitracs not updating the position. I was...
