Hey everybody, Getting out of the business, due to some personal circumstances that prohibit me from going too far from home anymore. I would have just posted this stuff in the classifieds, but we are moving very soon, and time is not a luxury I have right now. As a result, I have my...

I have a set of Alcoa sluminum wheels that I just listed on ebay. The auction description says it all, but in a nutshell, they are used, but in real good condition. These rims are for the 11R 22.5 size tires. I would have just put these in the classified section, but I did not think about it...

Hey everybody, I will be talking with Jeff Y. with Nations Express tomorrow, and was looking at the Haz Mat endorsement they require you to have. My question to anybody in the know is: is there not a waiting period of 30-45 days, in order for them to run a background check, as part of the...

How cool to see the company I work for, on the front page of EO! Everything they put in the article was spot on. Due to the fact that they are located right outside of Detroit, they generally have no problem getting you out, and reeling you back in just as quickly. I have a wife and 2 young...

Just wondering if I could get a little info from others......I am one of the Detroit fellas, running a straight truck. As a result, the nature of 95% of my freight is automotive. Anybody that hauls alot of automotive, knows about the nasty, greasy, oily parts that go in the metal baskets and...

Hey gang, I was the guy who posted a thread regarding my F650 dilemma, and the need for a taller box and sleeper. After consideration, it has become quite clear that the way to go is to just dump the 650 and try getting a nicer used "real" long haul, expediter truck. I am quite certain...

Hey gang, I have to imagine that most everybody in the trucking profession spends quite a bit of time listening to the radio, and I have to believe that many have went to Satellite. I picked up my Sirius a couple months ago and it is awesome. If anybody out there wants a recommendation for...

Hey gang, I just got my password problem fixed and can now post again, but for the past several months, have been dilligently monitoring all the posts, and man what a great resource this is. I have a question which could almost be considered a dilemma, but it is manageable at this point. Heres...

Hi guys and gals, Am thinking about moving to a different expediting company, and am trying to figure out if this is for me. I currently do a job that pays by the box, kind of like Fed Ex. The company I am considering will have me doing regional work, and they take a cut of 40 percent of...

Hello, Was hoping to get some insight from somebody in the know. I have a 2004 Ford F 650 with a 28 foot box. I am currently working for a company in Michigan doing local runs, but was doing a little searching for other freight companies in my area who are recruiting. One thing I noticed, was...
