Damn, some straight up hate coming out there, lol. Turtle has been cool to me the few months ive been here, but his response to the op did seem a bit snippy. So youre saying get expierence in a straight because the load opportunities are more plentiful, then go to a van? I still don't get why...

Oh yeah, Blizzard made the comment. My bad, lol.

Im sure you could find a Chinese restaurant near by. ;)

I see. Youd think the company you run for would be a little more organized that that.

Im confused, if dispatch told you to take a brake, why did they call you 45 minutes later and ask you why you weren't rolling?

Ive lived here my whole life and ive never even been to Tell City. Its the only little 'burgh around here ive never checked out. I was going to go last weekend but she flaked out on me. Dang internet dating. Thanks for the info, guys. I think you've sold me on the straight.

Thanks for the info, Dave. Ill be solo, so I guess it would be a little less than that. I don't have a s/o to team with, and the thought of living in a truck with a stranger for a month at a time sound horrible. Turtle, I guess I didn't take wal-marts and and the surrounding towns into...

750-1000 per week is dang good money, Tdave. At least for me it is. Is that with your own truck or for a fleet owner?

Wow, 14 vans?!? lol, I didn't know it was that bad. I pass the truck stop here in Evansville several times a week and always see about an even number of straights and vans. 3 or 4 a piece usually. Ok, well that's defiantly something to consider.

What about driving a straight for a fleet owner? Goes with what I asked tknight. Could someone park their van and drive a straight for a fleet owner? If you make more in a straight, then you could cover the van payment and still make a little extra, right? I guess that kind of brings another...

What I don't understand is, a majority of the guys who try to sway people away from vans drive vans themselves. If its that bad, why aren't you guys moving up to the straights?

Youre just a sheeple, Turtle. You just believe whatever the government wants you to, you cant think for yourself, blah blah blah. I watch Ancient Aliens, that means im smart. I guarantee you this video is rea.....wait....what?...there is?....oh, nevermind.

The same thing has happened to me with moog ball joints on several occasions. They're supposed to be quality stuff, but I've had horrible luck with them. At the bmv. I'm #188. They're on #150. :(. Fml.

I thought it was Tony Danza.

Ahh...should have guessed.

Youre in my stomping grounds! :) If you get hungry, get a steak at the Haub House, I don't think its too far from the truck stop. Who did you deliver to? I work for a company that deals with a lot of the factories around town, so im just curious.

Those are good burgers Walter.

I will say I enjoy that part. Gives me ideas for a future set up. Expediter guy, your set up in the box truck is pretty sweet.

Im not trying to be a hater, if you guys like doing them then that's cool. They just don't do anything for me.

It really is kind of unbelievable. Who gives a :censoredsign: about how many facebook friends you have, or how many posts on a forum you have, or how many likes you get, or how many subscribers you have. It doesn't matter. Its not real life. This is the kind of crap that teenage girls do, not grown men...
