My Truck Has Been Sold...What!?
Topic 26519 | Page 2
Well that is a blessing and a curse I guess. You get used to a truck and they sell it lol, however it is also exciting getting something new (or new to you) kind of like a new toy. Anyway be sure and follow up and let us know what you end up in.
One of my insured ordered 65 Volvo in June and won't get them until december
Finally got my new truck. A teal 2020 freightliner with 24,000 miles on it. Transferring all my stuff from one sweltering hot truck to another had me soaked with sweat. That was no fun!
Nice wheels. Like the color.
But but but.... you are a company driver... you got a NEW truck AND a condo???? you went lease .. admit it. i know because i read on the internet.....
(yes sarcasm oozed there)

Dm:
Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.
Still at the terminal? Want to see your new truck!
Terminal:
A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

After getting this truck I'm guzzling the company kool aid.
Sorry, Spaceman. I picked up a loaded trailer and was on the road around 16:30. Delivery was a drop/hook in Joplin. Finished there and in line for a wash out right now. Oooh! Next load just came through!

That color has me green with envy!
Congratulations on your newest ride.

I like what you're saying, driver-formerly-known-as-Rainy. Thank you.
And Errol, I'm sorry what I said wasn't exactly clear. I meant the load is going to be repowered at the terminal. That's as far as I'm taking it.
