Default Shipping Wars

Alright guys I hope this is the right place for this. But anyways who else out there is watching the new show on A&E called Shipping Wars? It seems to be pretty good. I did notice the guy Roy with the Duramax (LB7 probably??) said he has 5 bad objectors. From the looks of it I think he meant glow plugs .

Lol idk man that girl was wearing some booty shorts and looked pretty damn good. Yeah I saw that idiot get a Cummins yesterday. He was sitting there looking at an F150 for a second Haha. I think the smartest person is the big rig guy.

i agree, the show is a joke but i do watch it. it makes us 'real' trucking companies look like we haul cheap freight and don't make a dime. the sad thing is the idiot in the van, and the chick with the different ford truck everyweek doesn't even have mc or dot numbers and are hauling stuff ILLEGALLY!!! Hope someone catches on to them soon. Sucks i gotta pay 10,000 a year for insurance, run a log book, go through scales, get hassled by dot everyday, etc etc etc. ok, i'm done now!

yeah, check out this site my wife just found...scamship.com looks like uship and the whole shipping wars show is in a bunch of trouble. I'm all for people making an honest living, but the people that get away with running these loads illegally is taking money out of the legal and legit companies.

I haven't watched it yet but a buddy was telling me it was a good show. When does it come on TV?

good point!!! i do believe they are shipping things, but i'm sure a lot of it is staged for t.v. Was a good show, idk if they will have a season 2 or not.
