Cool! Some local painting company bought mine. Apparently it's replacing a POS! His painter acted like he was jumping into a nice Caddy. The a/c froze him out in only a few minutes. ;)

Sold my van yesterday. Quick sale thru Craig's List. Bought 8/6/12 $6000. 235,000 odom. Sold 7/15/14 $1500. 460,600 odom. Made about $225k with that van. I'll pull the exact number later. I miss that van already. Never stranded. Long live the Bowtie!!

Memphis BBQ is overrated. Love me some of that down south pork!

I bid on a NE tonight but I'm sure they laughed at the rate. Doesn't hurt to try. Would have certainly paid to drive the heck back out if there. No go. Not even a response. LOL!!

True story, Bob!! That was Straight Shot Express. It seems that when we really get them out of a jamb they seem to pay even faster. There's a small percentage of brokers that do that. That really helps!! Thank you Straight Shot Express!!

Trust me Paul, if we could carry the SLOW broker pay, we already would!! We don't steal drivers, tho. For the record, I don't really recruit. The drivers we have that care to discuss their cons and pros with Crossroads seem to sell us themselves. We'd pay recruiting bonuses to them but then...

Poor Beanie! He'll get caught up.

Not all carriers have escrow deducts.

Party in West Memphis!!!

Ken, we're tickled you're aboard!! You and BK made a great addition to Team Crossroads!!!

Ok. That's a life I've never experienced, personally. It's still a huge leap of faith. We get that. No one PLANS on waiting that long. HeII, your oldest load is getting HAIRY!! It seems Natxxxx Expxxxx hasn't changed at all, in how they pay, in the last 10 years. I had to go after their bond...

Sorry Jung didn't work out for you, Mr Mud. Also sorry I have no interest in factoring invoices to make bringing drivers on way easier. It's a very limited pool of O/Os that can bear the burden of running the startup period with us. I sing their praises!! Our guys rock!! Hope you're on with a...

Maybe Jimmy Hoffa is in there too!!

Or do it like Geraldo in the caves. Get one of those cameras that you shove down the drain pipes. Imagine the suspense!!!!! ;)

Finally got the two MOs rolling. Van loads in Sprinters. But at least they were 812 and 680 miles in the right direction!! Thank goodness!! Now, if something decent will come out of McCheesyland!!!!

Must be cheap freight day. :(

Aren't super-long-geared 5-6 speed trannies supposed to downshift on hills? I imagine that "last gear" is designed to cruise on almost flat and downhill grades. Just giving the engine a lower RPM break. Hauling 2-4 tons of truck and freight takes power. High gear seems like it's only for the...

I've heard this "scary story". Hang on!!!

I'm guessing there's a pretty wide range of year models that a 4.8 can swap with. Sounds like you found a good one!!! Now go test drive that thing around all day! Picnic in Millennium Park? Road trip to Oshkosh? Have a great day!! Our "feelers" are out this morning!!

Did your engine source have the mileage on the engine you bought? Sounds like a great deal!! I'm thinking about taking a "heap" and having some fun with it. A drop in engine in that price range kinda makes it silly to consider even a rebuild.
