ANYONE can offer new equipment...that and a buck fifty-nine gets you an extra large @ Tim Horton's.

It's ALL about money and job satisfaction, NOT 07 trucks and workin' for less.

I do not know about wage or miles will check just out of curiosity when i get home.I had to go to mt pleasent tx topick up a load of trailers.told me to go after waited all day for crane to clear. got there in wee hours of morning.they load the trailers on the deck and strap down.I made them write on bol that they loaded trailer because would not let me put more staps on.they treat the load as one piece not tied toeather so each trailer has to be treated as a piece.they put over the top trailers only.they said ship all loads like that,I said may be but if i can not put more straps on because i would damage trailers.I got them to put that on bill andif i get a ticket for insecure load they can pay the ticket.I know not going anyplace but it is not done like rule says.Did see a big piece that left for the mac from the dock.one truck with 4 axles on frnt one at back to push.they had to raise power lines to get down road.guy said take a month to get there.Duh had another to go same place would not be cheaper to go at same time.It was a well organized group though

If you are ever layed over at Mt. Pleasant ever again there is an Oilfield Museum nearby at I believe it was Longview. Only time I was sent in there for a back haul to Toronto after drops in Houston, I did not know about it and also was sent in far too early for that final pick up, so could have toured it easily. Then they were late loading me plus one item failed the QC so had to be remade. (Plastic coated armoured cables for Arctic duty). The plant manager said he could not pay detention time but did take me out to his buddy's new Friendlys Steakhouse franchise and bought me what ever dinner I wanted. That worked for me.
