LOL Now there's one cartoon that I haven't thought about in decades. You guys sure are hard on poor ol' CT.
I saw 3 of them at the Grangers Distribution Center.[/QUOTE said:Granger freight is pretty much indestructible, and very well packaged. Unless, that is, you run over it with an M-1 Abrams.
Is thatyes indeed i spoke with them and they wanted much wampum. the chief i mean thief chief crazy ass matty picked up the phone and mumbled some crazy ass ::::....here is what the scene looked like
Probably needed some one to haul off the salvageYou know what yesterday I saw for the first time ever 3 Central Transport trailers actually parked at a shipper/receiver.
I've always wondered who they do because and I'm not trying to bash them I'm just saying I never see there trucks at any actual place I see them driving around, and I know they were or maybe still are big into auto parts with the whole Pro Logistics and other shell companies, but I never actually can say besides the GM Plant that I've seen there trailers any where until Saturday when I saw 3 of them at the Grangers Distribution Center.

you would not believe it if you worked there. it is run like a crooked pizza shop. people just don't sit around and stir this sh&t up. it is totally unbelievable. i was an ops trainee several years back and had to ride with an owner operator that had no passenger seat and had to sit in a retractable lawn chair...i bitched and they demanded i do it or else. i was fortunate i came away with no injuries.LOL Now there's one cartoon that I haven't thought about in decades.

Haven't you ever purchased a new vehicle before? You get a yellow temporary sheet of paper to tape in the window until the state gets around to issuing your license plates. 100% legal - who would want to let brand new trucks sit idle on a technicality? I'd hate to be the manager that has to tell his drivers they can't touch the new equipment because the state hasn't issued plates yet...if it wasn't legal they would all be pulled over at every weigh station don't you think?
They might have shiny new trucks, but if they maintain them in the same fashion as the rest of the fleet in a short time the "new" trucks will be hard to distinguish from the current fleet. CT is a true bottom feeder, facilities and equipment are kept in deplorable condition.from what I can see people want to bash ct to make there job feel better. ct is obviously making big strides if all they seem to point out now is that we had a paper tag to run the truck instead of letting it sit and talking about the insurance. central is not perfect as no carrier I have ever worked for was but I am happy here right now which more than what I can say for a lot of drivers I talk to. I see my wife and kid daily and can afford to give them a good life. I feel bad for all the bitter drivers out there that don't get the same thing.
I saw one of those brand new trucks this week in my area peddling freight with a trailer that was missing the top panel on the roll door. It's excusable if it happened that day while he was out, but I doubt it.

That was probably Mr perfect he will do anything for MattyToday I saw a Central Transport 48' piker pulling an empty tandem axle piker converter dolly behind it's trailer going down I-480 which is a non toll road. I had to do a double take, because I don't believe that is a legal combination on a non-toll road.
I was in the passenger seat and I actually said to the driver I said look at that central truck is that legal? He said "Not with a 48' trailer." It was tractor 48' trailer and tandem axle piker dolly that's like a turn pike double almost on a non toll road. They must have needed the dolly at the shop to get it fixed and figured why not I don't know.That was probably Mr perfect he will do anything for Matty
