Y'all can laugh if you want, but in all the time I've run tankers between chemicals and food-grade, I have never once ran with an overweight load. Might just be the company you are working for! Hell even with that scumbag outfit Indian River everything was kept legal concerning gross weight. Can't say that about other things though... :shock: :roll: :lol: [/b]

Hi Superior Drivers:
I am starting with Superior next week. I got a year OTR experience with dry van. I know some tanker basics from previous jobs. Can you tell me what to expect during my first week(s) training? I feel like I am going into this blind. Any info - or rough "schedule of events" would be appreciated. Thanks, mbadriver
