    Using Driver Relations as a decision maker

    Well I know from personal experience if the Head of Driver Relations speaks to you as if your a child and you don't like it. Your gone in a heart beat. Clearly easier to replace a van. Then the time & money expended in training a person for Drivers Relation's.

    A Death In The Family

    If you think you may want to hold onto it. Why not go to a salvage yard and if you find something newer with low mileage, ask if you can have an analysis done on the oil. They should allow you to drop the oil pan on the transmission to inspect it. And get them both at once.

    How do you fleet owners do it??

    When I first moved into the Ozarks a sign at the local Sale Barn had advice for getting into the Cattle business. It might also work for you. "Two things needed to get into the Cattle business. #1 $100,000.00 #2 Another $100,000.00"

    New here from panther!

    I have never been a whiz at math. If your getting (just for example) $1.50 per loaded mile for a 1000 mile run. $1500.00. With 500 miles dead head you just reduced your profit by $167.00, I think:rolleyes:

    Looking to get into expedite

    There may one or two Companies who will hire you as a driver. Most are strictly O\O or Fleet owners. You may want to look into the Free Classifieds for someone looking for a team co driver. Good luck.

    WIT - why the scare tactic ?

    Some people were brought up to be respectful of either sex. I'll hold or open a door for anyone. It's just common courtesy.:p When I was growing up my mother or grandmother would patch my dungarees. Saying "don't go around looking like a rag picker" Now it seems men or women will purposely ruin...
