RE: Any Elite drivers getting passed by for lower What happend at home was that you could be on your home board. Lets say at 2200 you were #1. But in the morning you might have dropped down to #5 because trucks from other areas that delivered to your home area received preference over you on...

RE: Any Elite drivers getting passed by for lower Kinda reminds me of the old Roberts days. Steve knows about this. You received 62% of the revenue if the delivery was taking you further from home. You received 46% if the delivery took you closer to home. Well it was a constant ongoing...

There are companys larger then Dynamextht might be a better fit.As to number 4 I say YES you are crazy to leave UPS to go on your own. Think about the benefits you will lose paricularly health insurance.

Well I gues we know where Jessie and Al will be next week.

When I operated as a solo FedexCC driver I found the NorthEast and New England to be the most profitable areas. I would have a trip virtually every day, some relatively short in miles but decent revenue. The teams usually refuse the shortr trips as they want to head back to the midwest or south.

What happens is that they need a solid viewpoint to have in their mirrors when they back in. Empty spaces are like the dessert,nothing to guide on.

A, B unit is a cargo van such as a Sprinter or Ford etc. Most of the expediting companys want a B unit to be able to carry 2,500 pounds. A C unit is a straight truck with a minimum of a 12 foot cargo box and must be able to carry 5,000 pounds. A D unit is a straight truck with a 20-24 foot box...

How about a little raffle. If you donate blood you get a ticket and then it goes into the barrel and the first 3 winners get a fuel card or something similar. This would be great PR for the Expo.

I have O Negative and have made many donations over the years when a child is born and needs that immeadiate transfusion due to RX something or other. It's a very strong positive emotion knowing that you contributed to a new life that just may discover a cure for something or other.

My Grandchildren get savings bonds. When the time comes for them to make that first car insurance premium they will remember me for sure.

OK it was locked once and will be again. No need to keep stirring the pot.

I had a Cummins 8.3 C Series and it gave me excellent service. I put over 900K on it and other than 2 exhaust manifold bolts breaking the basic engine performed well. Like in any truck I went through 2 alternators ,2 water pumps a fuel pump under warranty but overall the Engine gave no trouble...

When W/G is desperate dogs or other animals are welcome.

I have read all through this thread and also on the other site by the seller. Looks to me like people are taking sides in this dispute. One corner has EO members the other corner has XX members. This dispute should probably be resolved privately as suggesting this or that or denying this or...

I was talking with another mod today and we were wondering what made you decide to try this business running with your own authority and a handicap. Don't get me wrong,I admire your request to seek information but just wonder what brought you to this decision.

When I first heard that story the Bud man pulled his stock from a store on Van :censoredsign: in Detroit.

Also whats legal in one state may not be legal in other states. I don't want to discourage you but you have a tough road ahead. You said you were going to get your own authority. Does that mean you are going to attempt to book your own loads as most brokers handle straight truck and up loads...

RE: FYI Panther Ad on this site No CDL needed Maybe the recruiter was new and didn't know the difference between a van and a straight truck.

Your main problem will be finding and keeping drivers. Many drivers are spolied and want trucks with all the amentities that can be bought. Your $16-23,000 used truck will more then likely not be equipped to the spoiled drivers standards. An older truck will incur more maintenance resulting in...

I looked on that other site and the seller has posted about the situation you described. IMO he sounds scared that you may take legal action gainst him.
