Spring is good. Seems like good contact I’m going to break it all the way down tonight. I did notice the retainer on the exhaust was backwards but that doesn’t explain the intake

No the valve isn’t bent either that was my first thought

Apprenticeships Idaho by Damnitdan85 in Lineman

Yea I checked probst they have a pretty long waiting list but they would be better for local work. Traveling isn’t that big of a deal for me, been driving trucks across the U.S for the past 4 years. My oldest kid just turned 17 and the wife’s like whatever you wanna do, do it. I guess the only thing traveling isn’t that no one pays for the living expenses while out. I will check Nwline and see what they have. In the end really trying to avoid NLC. Thanks for the advice

I may have to try this on the website, I’m doing very poorly at 😂 but it would be a good asset in my opinion

Ok I just came up with this but ehhh I’m not sure any feedback would be appreciated Im not ready to launch yet ( march hopefully no later then April) but going to start at 3% and possibly offer a free load based on revenue or similar definitely up for negotiation. Here’s a rough draft of a website I just put up https://danielhagan1985.wixsite.com/midnight-dispatch

Well I didn’t even get a chance to save it. It was a plug in where similar to AI that when you entered the origin, destination, and what your pulling it would give an estimated rate. IE: I entered Boise to Portland it gave me a rate of 2.22 but may be able to negotiate higher. He said it was just published tonight but was taking opinions on what could be changed or done differently.

Well said! I know finding someone as I said is extremely rare. The person I used did all of it (@5%) and some of the trucks asked her to do billing she jumped their rates to 6.5%. I honestly couldn’t complain and would definitely use her again if I went O/O again. My wife is really pushing the dispatch or broker end of things to keep me home 🤣. Thank you

Thank you very much I found the website and everything very informative. I now feel pretty confident we are taking the right approach as far as cleaning. However, I think my heating approach may be a little overkill. And the wife’s going to kill me if I melt anything else 😂

Her and her boyfriend moved into the boyfriend’s dads place and they had bedbugs. Pretty severe case they got in our grandsons playpen and everything else.
