Can anyone who has been around for more than 6 months give me an idea of what they think their average weight per load has been? I'm specifically referring to Cargo Vans . Thanks

Just a quick note to show all those considering driving how important this forum is when the experienced drivers are willing to share their experience with you... I just signed on with one of the insurers mentioned in this thread for less than HALF of my original quote....and here's the...

Just a quick thank you....I called the Insurance company you suggested and they were able to get me a rate of 2409 as opposed to the 5289 I had been quoted by another broker. Needless to say I immediately signed with them. Thanks again for the heads up ! Mike

Thanks guys...I appreciate you taking the time to respond !

I'm putting together a business plan. I have a 2011 Chevy Cargo van (value about 22k). I had planned on doing a little expediting in it...I have 3 years experience with straight trucks as a driver, not an owner operator. Anyway, I had planned to use the insurance company I've used all my life...

I can see that I can't possibly win. Therefore, I shall ignore your improper use of the colon after Detmike, the dash after "us" and your lack of a period to show the end of your thought. You have certainly shown me the error of my ways.

okay, maybe I'm backwards...but I can't seem to get my point across, so I'll try just one more time. Whye iz it ok four somebudy to criticize the weigh I luk but I'm out uv lyne for critizysing his spilling? There, maybe that'll work

Sorry bud, but you're missing my point. In my humble opinion, you're wasting your time defending someone who looks down at me and other drivers because my waistline hasn't been 30 inches since high school. He's quite the stud. I'm impressed....but tell you what....he's still someone who...

A force to be RECONDED with??? I surely hope so because you're quite obviously functionally illiterate. I'll allow for a few typos here and there when someone's posting, but, if you're going to give me a sermon allowing for what an incredible physical specimen you are then at least be sure that...

Maybe Flying J took a lesson from Panther....my personal vehicle got towed from behind the Panther Corporate building in Seville despite my having permission to park it there, being parked in a valid spot AND having been instructed to park it there ! Not fun.

Cheri.... I'm just a little confused here. Every time someone suggests a different breed of dog, you have a valid reason that breed will not suffice. So, I'm thinking that maybe you don't want a dog after all. Despite your protestations, I'm thinking you do want a man. So, here's some things...

Death Penalty ? NO WAY. Here's my suggestion: Life in a cell, solitary confinement. One meal a day, 1500 calories. No books, No television or intellectual stimulation of any kind. No other prisoner to talk to, Nobody to ever tell you what's going on in the world, what day it is, how...

I had the same exact complaints that you did about co pilot. Looking to get a dash mounted myself and came across the WorldNav 7100 which they claim is just for truckers. I have also posted on the tech forum looking for info !

I presently have the copilot which I am, for the most part satisfied with but would like to get rid of it because of the clumsiness of trying to deal with a laptop while driving. I've seen ads for the WorldNav 7100 which is a dash 7" monitor and the unit (which retails between 500-700...

Here's one I can't figure out and maybe someone could explain it to me. Just left the Houston/Galveston board (7 loads per day avg) take a load to the Dallas board...(7 loads per day avg)...How come Dallas shows up on the Houston board, but now that I'm in Dallas, HOUSTON doesn't show up ?
