    Used lift gate

    Where can I buy a good used liftgate from? I want to add one on my existing truck but don't care to pay the $9,000-$12,000 I've been quoted for a new one.

    Mayfield Express

    So, I was just looking over the Mayfield Express website and it's been stripped of all references to Panther. Are they now operating as a carrier or are they just putting a little distance between themselves and Panther?

    Motor oil

    I have a 2008 cat c13 with 725,000 miles on it. It's had nothing but Delo from day one in the engine but my driver just had the pm done and they put Delvac in it. Is this going to be a problem? Do I just run Delvac in it from now? Do I need to have it drained and get Delo back in it?

    Conference call for surface fleet

    Anyone listen to the call this afternoon? It was very enlightening. The discussion of stacking loads and getting more fleet coordinators did actually make me feel a little better about the new pay plan. It does seem they had a lot of mis-information and lack of knowledge when people pointed...

    Cr-unit question

    We have a 2 axle cr unit and I'm curious if adding a lift axle to it will make us anymore money with FDCC. We can scale around 5500lbs and with a lift it'll over double. We have an 18' box. I don't want to add the axle if FDCC will look at it only as a cr unit with a 5,000 lb max regardless. Any...

    T-Val is Thermoking only now?

    I talked with my recruiter today who told me FDCC is only accepting T-Val trucks with thermoking units from now on. Anyone else hear this ? Thoughts or feelings? It's gonna decrease all the used t-val trucks value that don't have a tk unit on them.

    CR or DR unit, no sleeper

    I was in the Vegas area and I noticed a FDCC Cr or Dr unit with no sleeper out there. I thought maybe it was a Texas sleeper built into the box but I got a good look at it and noticed there was not a cutout in the back wall. Anyone know about what this is for? Just sparked my curiosity.

    Edmonton, AB

    Hello FedEx veterans, need some advice... We took a load to Edmonton early this week and are still here. We have had 3 load oops that have all canceled. Is this normal for being in Canada? Should we have just deadheaded back to the states? Any advice would be appreciated.
