    FYDA Freightliner Columbus Ohio

    At the very least ya think they would wipe the greasy fingerprints off the door and steering wheel with those shop supplys we just bought. I tend to ask what shop supplys are needed for the job and never get a straight answer. I dont mind paying for the 1lb of floor dry that was needed but why...

    What is the most famous Expedite trucks.

    Any work truck that is Expedite White..Anything is else is just pretty and show boating :) Ya see so many that look good,, I would vote for trucks that have custom paint on em and not vinyl.

    Where's the Panther freight?

    All of the above plus: They really didn't lie to you. A million dollars worth of cargo isn't that much. It could mean just 1 or 2 loads where left on the docks at the end of the day.

Not my fault if routing pays...

    URGENT Call to Action

    But is it really scrapped or just delayed? From another post here a few days ago... The committee substituted instead an amendment that calls for a study of the impact of bigger trucks on safety and roads.
