Yes, all temp loads have to be run continuous cycle. It has technically been this way for at least the last 5 years... Decided I had better edit this..if you were a TVAL in the past, it seems they made us run all temp loads continuous...I have heard of some people not running continuous in the...

I have not been able to get on for days....so much for IAC re-certification...re-certification....re-certification....yes sent in 3 times/passed and still indicating we need to do it....LOL

Well I know that not "all" the winners are flat rate, but I would certainly like to view the data used to determine the winners... lol

I think this is the best attitude overall. We have not paid much attention to it all these years but this year we looked at our figures when the 4 star winners were announced in the news letter... we were shocked that we actually "appeared" to fit the requirements! I really don't know why but...

It is a mystery to us what the first cut would be...we had 100% p/u - del, over 100 runs, and we were in service I think about 95% possibly more, and had no accidents or tickets....don't know what else there is...Well I should say technically I don't know what else there is....LOL although...

Congrats to all the 4 Star winners....once again we did not make the mystery cut off number...:confused: Surprise there....

Although I can not believe I am going to actually write this.... I think it is worse now than it was before. (I did not think that was possible.):rolleyes: We get these crazy messages sometimes that we are out of range by like 30 degrees! As if we would not notice this or have chosen to...

:) Thanks for the reply, nice to know we aren't the only ones....

I am curious---does anyone who has the new Ameriscan (Data Cold thing) have one that works like FedEx said they would? For example, anyone not have to send in temp tapes for pickup/delivery? Anyone not getting requests for temp readings? Anyone not getting out of range messages while in range...

My personal favorite alarm is the box is out of TEMP!!!!! OMG!!!! CAll Dispatch NOW!!! Yes, it surely is because it is 4 hours before we need to turn it on........

How does the EOBR log drivers on loads that require DDPS? If the truck is stopped for fuel, food, potty breaks, scales and the non-driving person has to get up from sleeper; does it indicate both drivers on duty? Does it move the non-driving person to on duty not driving? If so, does this...

This is an issue that must only concern a few of us...I would think people would be questioning FedEx's ability to designate on where they can and can not go with their own trucks while not under load or dispatch. I know that we rarely sit at a truck stop and part of the "enjoyment" of not...

Concerns EOBR Some of my concerns regarding the EOBR. Privacy of Data--- Who owns the information? Who should have access to the data? Who should have first right to correct inaccuracies without penalty? What are the legal implications of data collected? How do I get access to the data? If...

Which rules are you referring to? I am interested in knowing which are FMCSA regulations and which are rules designated by FedEx Custom Critical?

There are many issues when you accept an unconfirmed load that many don't realize a couple are listed below: Your truck is not eligible for pre-dispatch because your truck is NOT confirmed for delivery. You are not given detention pay if you get there at designated time and consignee is not...

We had some friends that used to drive for Panther and they were cited for not having the ability to produce copies of their logs upon a side of the road DOT inspection. The DOT told them, they were running illegal. Cited them and fined them. Period. Panther's response was they would take care...

We love ours! They are very warm and as others said they are wind proof and almost water proof. They seem to run a little on the large size...something you may want to think about when ordering them. They are kinda bulky and do take up some space...but this morning when it was 10 degrees...

Good post and great chart! It shocks me at the number of people out here running that don't know what it cost to run their truck per mile. I have talked to people and they say "oh, we average $3.00 a mile"...and I usually reply, "wow, is that INCLUDING dead head?" Then I hear, "No..what do you...

TA, Whitsett ,NC $4.319 posted price $3.858 paid $0.461 per gallon saved

For what it is worth, my answer would be, yes. I think it would be a great idea for the FedEx extranet site to host something. I think it could turn into a legal logistical nightmare to attempt it on EO. I believe that EO has a copyright---as well as FedEx...I think when two or more entities...
