The trucking industry has a very good perk,you get to see the country,but in expediting,this is taken to another level.As because of the nature of expediting and not being loaded every day,you get time to actually see the many great places others just have time to drive through. Many in the...

They even call me when truck is in the shop.Like tomorrow.AC froze up and took out alternator belt,so back in shop for AC again.Had to turn down going from Pittsburgh to Mississippi,and Mississippi to...

Not sure about the vans and straight trucks,but most of your class 8 trucks,when wheel alignment is perfect, will pull slightly to the right.This does have a slight affect on the right tire,as in most cases it will wear faster than the left.The reason of the pull to the right,is suppose to be a...

Since I became a truck driver, over 30 years ago,before expediting,and since,I have been places and seen things most people don't get to see in a life time.I get paid to be on a constant vacation. In the beginning I was like a tourist,from pictures of the state line markers,to carrying my...

I'll make it short.First week here at Tri-State,I had a thank you note sent over my QC. At FDCC I received 4 purple promise rewards.

Moot,like i said before,most load board runs, are broker loads,and use the authority that your carrier has to haul their loads.In a trip lease,you are using the trip leasing companies authority to haul that load,which means your also to run their door signs,and permits. If the company your...

1999,picked up a 5 gallon pail of radio active dirt,and took it from West Mifflin Pa to nuclear plant in south FL,but what was really strange,it had to be temperature assured,and at the time,I had one of the few reefers with a recorder.

My first job out of truck driving school,was union,and paid me by the computer which ever paid higher,miles or hours.I worked for a private carrier,we were on a 60 hour week,and got paid overtime after 8 hours on duty.Needless to say,I worked 15 hours a day,4 days a week,and made over $700...

There is a difference in doing a broker load and trip lease.For those that do trip leases,they are actually leasing their truck to that certain carrier for a one time load.Back in the day that was only permitted to get you back home.Not to often will you run into a trip lease these days. Broker...
