Still stuck in Dallas

Hate to say this, but, this has been going on since before I came into trucking in early 93. Companies were using HHG for miles some still do some now you zip to zip and others use real miles. Now for myself, I don't complain because I signed the contract with my company, then again, most of...

we have 77 vans in service and 7 under loads as of 9:50 today... at least that's better then earlier when we only had 3 under loads....

Sitting in the Dallas area, 5 bids no loads over the last week... Did get service and LS inspection done... One other thing.. is anyone as slow as LS in the van department? We've been slow for a month or so

Frank being a van driver were not subject to DOT regs or I'm I missing something

I go into Fl when I can, my rates are anywhere from 1.4 to 2.12 a mile depending on the agent I'm dealing with. Once in Fl it might take awhile to get a load out and the rates I get out of Fl are anywhere from 1.3 to 1.5 a mile depending on agent. Don't get me wrong it could be dead in Fl also...

I need to get around to replacing all my glow plugs since three of the 5 have went bad again, plus the control unit... there goes another couple of hundred bucks

Looks like the station isn't open yet, I see a dance around the parking lot yellow tape in a driveway and something grey across the entrance.

With dual wheels you won't be able to slide full size pallets in-between the wheel wells....

If you use a comcheck to fuel then all the fuel stations I know will charge a fee, now if you use your comcard no fee period.. Some loves will not give points if you fuel out front, that is why in most cases I don't fuel at loves...Then again, other then Arizona I fuel in back.

Troy, Il, had my QC take a dump on me.. Part 1K (Landstar) now there sending one to Dallas. Wonder if it's the new system or this same POS.. The one I have will be a paper weight at the end of Dec. since QC will be cutting service to this type of unit.

The Pontoon Beach one or the other one off 255...

Seen the long and tall Transit and I've got to say it's sweet. Seen the overhang it doesn't look that bad, hell it looks like the Sprinter has just as much. Maybe the end of next year I might pull the trigger on one.

Trying to figure out your post on fuel mileage.. 8.5 pr 9.7 doesn't make since to me.. Now I might be looking at this wrong, can someone help me out

Got the news last night, 2200 for the repairs this includes all bearings... Should have it back by Friday.. Then I need to work hard to make up for my last three months. Next on the list will be brakes which my brother will change for me for free...

Yep dealer prices... looked around and the price I got was about the same no matter where I went, except Freightliner they wanted 3200 min for repairs. I about fainted with those numbers. Two grand is what I was quoted at Dodge and 1800 other places around here... Life sucks sometimes and then...

Straight truck in a heart beat. I came from a T/T to a Sprinter and have never looked back If I was to drive where I had to follow HOS it would be in a straight truck.

I have found over the last 3 years that expediting is like regular trucking when it comes to rates, the more vehicles there are the less people want to pay. It doesn't matter how much freight is out there someone will take the freight no matter the rate. The above said, I do like being in a...

At my brothers in McKinney Tx waiting on the news about how much my repairs are going to cost on my sprinter.
