As I sit looking all around,
Confusion and uncertainty is all I found.
The answers are there,
But I do not know where.
Optimistic and hopeful dreams,
Are all I have so it seems.
The future I do not know,
So all I can do is take it slow.
But I do know it will work out,
So I wait and watch without a doubt.

What? Only ONE?? ONE axle... and only ONE pup? :hellno::lol2:
And you have problems backing THAT "combo" into a restaurant parking lot?
Okay, digs aside, Double R.... I have a question:
I see Sysco doubles all the time on my route. They are Reefer units. I've pulled reefer, so I ain't "skeert" of 'em. Question is, who makes more money? You local "lumpers" or the linehaul guys that "feed" you?
Any info would be appreciated, but mostly info on the linehaul end of it.
Not that I ain't making BANK pulling linehaul for FedEX.... but, I like to keep my ears to the ground.
People gotta EAT!
:thumbsup:

Not sure with SYSCO. Ask Jackrabbit, he linehauls for them. He would know best. I work for a independent food distributor.
As for getting the trailer in to some places, well, let's just say that I'm expect to get into a trailer into a place that was once delivered by a straight truck.:thumbsup:

Ooops!! My mistake. I thought I had read where YOU worked for Sysco.
Straight truck...single pup... what's the difference? :lol2:
Actually, being "articulated," it should be easier for you, right? :thumbsup:
Just kiddin! Anyway.... I'll ask Wabbit, thanks!

Yea i know what guy your talking about. It is a white daycab. I was pissed when i 1st saw that truck. I think it says like NTC on the door. Yea i drive a dump with "Brandon" on the door or a yellow pete 379 that is the lowboy i drive that like 1 day a week.
I think i may have saw you not to long ago. Were you hauling that bagged stuff out of the Scott's place??? I see alot of flats in and out of there.

Well that settles it then, next time I see that chump impostor "Mackman" in the white daycab I'll get up underneath him and put him in the wall. :thumbsup:
Yeah I hauled out of there a few times so far this year and I was up there not long ago, sometime in the last two weeks I think. I'm not fond of that place or the Scotts in Oxford, PA, friggin mud holes when it rains, makes my truck dirty.:thumbsdown:
