    the muti carrier driver push

    OUCH!!! Biting your tongue can be painful. Got a lot I could say about all this BS, but I try to minimize the drama and trauma in my life. So for now, in the words of Forest Gump "that's all I gotta say bout that."

    the muti carrier driver push

    This is the second company I have heard of recently that is stating that their insurance company will no longer cover them if they have drivers that drive for multiple companies. Trucking industry was deregulated by the government years ago. Now it seems the insurance companies are picking up...

    Sprinter tire recommendations

    Michelin is the best choice by far. Great mileage, traction and ride. Might cost a little more up front, but in the long run you get what you pay for. Have always gotten at least 130k out of mine.

    Slow cargo van freight?

    Well said Guido. I could run till the wheels fell off,....provided I run cheap freight. Not gonna happen. We only hurt ourselves when we do that. I have deadheaded out of some of the tougher areas rather than take it at half rate. It's not worth the wear and tear on my equipment.

    Aug 01 Question of the day

    The last time I drove the PA. and IN. turnpikes I figured they should have paid me. They are both a miserable excuse for a road. A delay due to a flat tire or bent tie rod is a very real possiblity on these so called turnpikes.:(

    Are rates for the truck or the load?

    So are you saying take all the freight offered? Or just all the freight that doesn't operate you at a loss? Thanks! Christopher That's a good question Road Dawwg. I'd like to see some opinions on that. Personally I have my own, low as I will go threshold and anything lower than that I...

    Are rates for the truck or the load?

    Thats the beauty of free enterprise. If I as Sprinter O/O chose to hold out for a higher rate and risk losing that load that is my prerogative. Thats my choice under a no forced dispatch. Certain areas of the country cost me more to run a load into, ie: road and bridge tolls, higher fuel costs...

    What is owed you?

    In my humble opinion, if you do not have alot of patience in this business, you will not suceed. Find something to occupy your detention time. I find that the wait is only half as bad when I'm getting paid to eat lunch, take a nap, read a book, surf the web, you get the picture. In the words of...

    Home ATM waiting for the phone to ring. Spent 3 days in Atlanta last week waiting for a run that never materialized. That is the second time for a 3 day wait in that area w/ no results. Is Atlanta that bad of an area to get a run out of?:confused:
