Shame 'em into fixing it: keep your eyes peeled for an old mudflap lying around a t/s with some other company's name/logo on it and duct tape it over the vent.

I doubt this is new policy at Schneider... you can't see three pumpkins in a row without at least one of them having crushed steps, side air deflectors or "pumpkin tape" over some portion of the truck.
And the trailers... oh. my. gawd. I actually saw an ad in the latest Truck Paper touting 500 1993-1995 pumpkin trailers with a tag line like "Will not be undersold by anyone!" No doubt that is true. Jim

WOW, im leased onto SNI and havent had a problem getting any trailers fixed...matter fact if there is something wrong with ur trailer or its due for inspection they wont let you leave any yard with it until its fixed. What you do is write that problem up the next time you go to have a PM done,,,,,,,if you take it in just for that problem you are more than likely not to get if fixed.

lol i know.. to be honest if i was to Jump ship to another OTR company with a Coolie's i would go with Swift Flatbed or U.S. Express.. But things are bad.. They are Very Bad.. But Not Bad Enough to be away from the house 3/4 weeks at a time.. So i guess i'm going to just suck it up so damn much until i can't suck it up no more..
And England?? Crappy Trucks?? S******.. I seem them all they time a my DC and at Backhauls, I love their Trucks, but i hear the Company Sucks!! And Tom its a Slip Seat Truck.. 80% of the Drivers Slip Seat on Schneider Wal Mart Accounts. I couldn't get a Picture of that One Truck with the hole on the Side which look like a four wheeler ran into!! Gator
