Might even bring the camping machine this year again.

Most that start factoring get themselves in a circle. My .02 is don't start factoring. It's not better than tightening your belt a bit.

Hawk, wake up!

First of all there Nascar, there are wayyyy more fishies in the pond than the ones you mentioned. Way more! If all you are looking for is 3.5C a week, then those that can't get that done in ANY type of equipment, is trying to die, or, is already dead. Your expectations are not...

Hey shooter, jes load yer freight on the back of the truck, problem solved. Right?

There ya go there Hot Freight. "Can't hurt" eh? Some never, never will get it. Amazing, ain't it. Top O the list ain't bad, i'd suggest. Many won't "wanna" conform to reality, and will go their own way, and fail, then still blame the system for their failure.

Carpunky, if your fear of failure is greater than your desire to succeed then, don't do it. Otherwise, go for it. Many of your responders are the former. So why ask us clowns.

Hey hawk, there is potential contractor for you, that posted on the newbees forum, wonder'in what he can do with his truck. I'd respond... but, he prolly won't like the answer. And besides i'm sure the truck won't fit up that small hole.

Aw go ahead and send em a resume. At least it would show you have the gumption to type one. Can't hurt you know.

Kinda begs the question from me. Spose I could do sumpin like that to supplement my retirement income? I'd not wanna run the short ones or the long ones, just the medium ones. Don't wanna work during the week, jes weekends. An, it needs to be round trip so's I can be home for my Mon morn...

Nah. Was not insinuating anything. The only message here wuz- you are the paying customer, don't allow others to force you costly errors. Details were not watched it seems. Above all, YOU dictate the delivery, not someone else, when things are right and good to go.

You kinda read like a nuther fella that types on here, and has all the answers. My question is then, why did you accept delivery in the first place if you understood it was not right, and with your wrenching skills, why don't you fix it? I understand parts are expensive, but downtime ain't...

I guess hind sight is 20/20 for you now, and you wish you had not accepted delivery of that truck in your haste to "get rolling", with what you have described as obvious speching mistakes. Many will listen to the sales people about delivery schedule, and "claim" to be truck experts, when, they...

Very generous, 400 lb. Must be taking the APU mfr propaganda to figgure that. We removed an APU a while back. By the time we got the unit off and ALL the other things (control pannel, wiring, hoses, coolant, etc.) wala, we were bout 950lbs lighter.

Well, putting it that way, then bout two thirty would be equitable, considering what is being charged the customer. Other miles, for poops and grins, to a truck stop, or sumpin else should be on you for sure. On a side note, it's been a long, long time since i've seen so much freight...

Yepper it wuz more. But, if you have to or choose to wait for the administrative bs, you may as well go on vacation. Interestingly, bout the time we were going to settle. Katrina came along, and the insurance company for the other truck is based in LA. Funny how things not related to your...

Six months Dave? We had a truck rear ended in a construction zone nearly three years ago. Have not settled for the down time yet. And, had to pay the repairs to get the truck back to work right away, steada waiting for......things to happen.

Ahhh, but Greg, you are a short jont from my shade trees in the back lot. Shoulda let me know you needed shade. Nice here at the lake. Try it sometime.

A buck thirty all miles in a tractor?? How can that be appealing to you?? I wouldn't even consider that rate for, watsit-- a New York second. But, like Dave types, we do waaayyyy beter'n that with straight trucks, and you can always change your mind.

NO! Why are you asking this question here? There are way better places to get an answer to that queation. How bout trying FMSCA, Washingtown, D.C.. Yer close.
