I'd imagine, if, someone were so far gone and, needed a book to find a tree, the book probably wouldn't do them much good.:+ :+ :+ :+

Then there is the folks that shoot themselves in the foot and drive 60 miles to a truck stop, stead of parking under a tree, and, then driving 65 miles back to a pick up, then, wonder why they don't get to keep too much.

Actually, a straight truck is limited to 40 foot in some states. Other states have limits to 60 or 65 foot. 40 foot is a Carrier imposed length limit. There is a difference.

I'm wondering why you'd need to sign on with a "large" Carrier?? Or, is there something I don't understand about this business? And, actually, there is only one type expediter flying my flags, and, they are not the camping type. Chances are, depending where you are from, that when you...

That is precisely why youshould get it from the "horses mouth", not, from what you "heard".

Oh, I was wondering. If you needed tires already, I wanted to know what brand and model they where, so, I wouldn't get some.

Leo: Do you need steers on that thing already??

If you want ride, better get in an Argosy, they even help the kentucky and Michigan roads.

I still would like to read when the original delivery was scheduled for.

I have used old scuff golf balls in my tires for years. works the same as any other centrifical force item, balls go to the light spot. I use them in everything even my 740i.

Guess you better type the whole story. Was your delivery time Saturday, Sunday, Monday or Tuesday?? Didn't read how far you run the load? Didn't read read how much detention you figgured was due? Hard to say if you where outa line or, not with what I read. Sorry.

Folks, you don't HAVE, to use the swing out steps.

Hey Hawk, are you saying i'm not normal???:D :D :D :P :P

What brand are you using? 4days in Laredo, tsh,tsh.

Jeez Hawk, you where with one. Problem is the first one you tried, you wanted to Dead Head 150 miles to pick up a load going to Oklahoma, instead of Dead Heading 8 miles to pick up a load going to New York. That reasoning process requires some questioning i'd say.

Beings you are from Indiana, try Foster Trucking. They are based in Southern Indiana.

That would be my spin on it too Dave. However, we gotta understand how most dispatchers and o/o or drivers are learned the business we are in. I see the products of this, knocking on my door, daily. And, I must admit, I am amazed daily about how little, even the ones with a few years under...

Yes, sometimes we have to do moves, and, no one likes them. However, Anyone who refuses a load from South Dakota to Los Angeles with what I would consider an excellent revenue producing opportunity, as exampled above, would have to wait for their perfect opportunity, or, move themselves. It is...

Not trying to "put you in your place" just wanting folks to understand that in this business there ain't nothing for sure, might seem plain as day, but it ain't. It is in fact bigger'n bofus to understand sometimes.

No need to apologize, however, you need to understand an armchair dispatcher (quarterback) normally don't have a clue about the dynamics of what really is going on, on site. Your friend may have refused to dh 250 miles to CA, or, after his rest, demanded something happen. Don't know. You...
