Very, very good chance you'll price yourself outa the market with that kind of attitude. Interestingly, i've advocated the things y'all are trying these days for years. Seems it really don't matter what the price of fuel is/was, a penny saved is still a penny earned. A little discomfort will...

Ahh, good ole Beantown. got there Thurs PM, loaded Fri for Texas. "Always" be nuther load?? Maybe. With the restrictions you have seems you should scope the neighborhood before you land.

humble, at least you have your priorities right as far as equipment, and, likewise you seem to have it right as far as work ethic. If you are "lucky" to be in the right place when someone needs to ship a "hot one" then it'll be a good thing. Myself, I tink things'll be good nuff to get by...

Waitaminit. Don't blame the truck seller, blame the buyer. I'm not defending Alumabunk, but i'v had contractors with screwed up trucks that we fixed. With a bit of common sense. Zactly, what is your problem? Other than being heavy on the front?

Sounds like you have a pusher axle? Yes/no? If room allows, and you are determined to move something, you may choose to consider moving the lift axle behind the drive axle. that would add bout a ton to the rear of the truck and take a lot of weight off the steers when it is up. Depending on...

Greg, if you are not charging over two bucks these days, you won't be in business long.

And, they should come from the profits, from day 1, not after the original truck is paid for.

Chapy, what are you saying here? You had the opportunity to stay a bit busy, and.... you didn't take either?? And, just what is a top tier company?

Don't see why not. As long as you dont work over 11/15, and take yer 10 off. Might want to have your motel reciepts handy.

why don't you just buy a truck, and then flip a coin for whom to sign with? Have you looked at any smaller Carriers in your neighborhood?

Many would have bee there some time ago if.... there weren't the problem of training up the co-driver (read bride) to pull a 53 stead of pulling a 16 to 22. Then of course there is the problem of not being able to have a "taj". That would place us at the same disadvantage as it has wit the...

Easy, I kinda feel for ya bro. But, wat happen? You buy a camping truck? You not run hard when it wuz there, an pay the truck down? Pay tto much? Interest rate? What? Help your bro's here, like they would help you not make the same.... if they could, or, would. 20k on a 20k truck...

Believe it's called bittersweet. Take a chance. Columbus did. You seemed to want a change, and, you got one. Sooooo make the best of it, and govern yourself accordingly in the future.

You may also want to consider that "amenities" will also limit weight and cube that you will be able to accept. Many these days feel, extreme comfort, way more of a priority than being able to carry diverse types of freight. Probly why they sit for "days". If you have multiple choices, choose...

Maybe, just maybe, the folks that carry dogs with em, can get some good outa the critter these days if they'd tie em by the tanks. Should be no problem then. Spose?

Wally, sorry bout your loss. But, on the other subject, I had an old timer tell me once, the best way to break them in, is to "load em like a freight train, an, drive em like they were stolen". Hope that helps.

Musta bumped yer head, before you opened this can of worms. Betcha it AIN'T yer last splain'in on the subject. Yer quick fingers, might even cost ya fore it's over.

Same story, different decade. We hadn;t lost any aircraft in Vietnam, until some of "our" technology slippped thru the cracks (believe it was a gyro), then we began to loose many. Money has a way of getting things done. Somehow.

65 across the board, cept for slowhio, an some others.

Yes, it is the same old story. Stewpid is, as stewpid does. Amazing. Ain't it??
