    To get a ½ shower credit at FlyingPilot you must have a Professional Driver Rewards card. Just swipe the card at the pump, except in Wisconsin. 14 plus gallons of gas will get you ½ shower credit. If you download the FP app you can track your shower credits, coffee club and book showers all...

    Introducing ourselves and a question;)

    Greetings R and D Jones. The expo is a good place to continue with your R& D. It would be helpful if you supplied more information about your expedite career plans. I am assuming you want to drive a straight truck for an owner as a team. I'm confused by your statement: The “average” net...

    We Have Lost Our Focus

    Ultimatums by one team member could prove disastrous in the long term confines of a truck. I would think discussion and arriving at a mutual agreement, an agreement that benefits the team would be the best course of action. I'm a team of one. Sometimes I disagree with myself but eventually I...

    We Have Lost Our Focus

    You could still do the Expo alone, leaving your wife and 40 pound 3 year old behind. ;) You could meet other expediters, connect with recruiters from various carriers, check out equipment and gather good info to bring home to your wife.

    Hello from Las Vegas

    Once they pay their dues by driving a straight truck for several years they can then move up to a cargo van.

    Hello from Las Vegas

    I think it's a logical first choice, especially for a same household team with past careers. Straight truck, automatic transmission, power steering large sleeper etc.

    Gearing up for full-time drive-away work (again)

    If you can't tow a car, drive-away can get expensive getting to the next job. Also you incur lodging fees. I met a couple driving a pair of school buses out west somewhere. They were headed to Seattle. They approached me to ask about expediting so I assumed they were looking for something...

    Weapons

    I you are crossing the border into Canada don't carry anything more sinister looking than a small pocket knife. I believe an E.O. member got hassled over a tire billy because it had a leather thong through the handle thus making it a weapon in the eyes of the Canadian official. The 16d nail in...

    New Guy with Potentially Silly Question :-{o

    You should ditch the Altima, buy a van and join the wonderful world of van expediting. Being homeless you already have a head start. Many of us vanners are still diligently working toward homelessness.
