this is not a jingle but a little poem I made up several years ago but I will change the last few words from it's original wording. when I grow up to be big and tall I'll drive a Pete and Bull I'll haul. If I grow up to be a little smaller I'll drive a KW and be a chicken hauler. But if I grow...

> I must have a low self esteem because if I had the money I would have a long and tall pete with a texas bumper, drop visor, and tons of chicken lights. Not to mention the POW/MIA mudflaps on the back. My cb handle(batman) under the driver's side window. My wife's name (Robyn) under the...

yes we are with panther,and usually when we are offered a load out of mickey mouse land it's only to go to Miami.so we refuse it.

yes we do call and we post our truck online and even call back haul dept.plus we never go out of service unless need truck serviced when we are in.but never can find anything unless it's going toward Miami.thanks for the suggestion though.

I agree whole heartedly but taking a look at 2days drivers compared to when I first started(1991).it didn't use to be like that or shall I say not as bad.Sure there are quite a few bad apples out there,but for the most part or a least the ones I associate with are pretty good people,of course...

WOW we have lawyers,psychologist,politicians probably even an doctor or two in the expediting industry.I'm impressed.Thing is those professions don't belong out here so all you yuppies start acting like truck drivers or go back to your offices,and drink your latte.And I don't mean Act macho,have...

a show off is just that a show off a braggart is just that a braggart having a low self esteem is just that a low self esteem. neither one is in any way has anything to do with the other have we all not at one time or the other bragged about something in our lives. have we all at one time...

I'm not saying chrome bull testicles, urinating "Calvin" ,or the teeth in the grill,or any of that stuff is tasteful.as a matter of fact it gives the trucking industry as a whole a bad image.I detest most of it. my point being,where does it say in psychology book that having such stuff on one's...

While I'm not a big fan of some Idiot using a Jake brake(Engine brake) when there is no need for it ie: rolling around a truck stop parking lot.Big stacks,Bull nuts ,train horns,Chrome sitting ladies and all the other shiny stuff some drivers have on their trucks,this is not a sign of low self...

we live in fl. and we hardly get a load back out unless it's a load to miami and I'm sure not going farther south when I couldn't get out of fl. from where we were.

my point was not how much a person makes nor was I neccessirly directing these figures toward an O/O we drive for fleet owners.I don't like to tell everyone my business but it needs saying.we started in this wonderful world of expediting back in aug. of this year.all time combined we have been...

Well I guess I have to much real truck driver in me or something because average of 12 runs in a 30-31 day period is not what I call good running especially for a team. lets say average for each run was.now this is only an average so lets not get technical.and we all know sure in the world not...

only thing I can say is living in a slow freight area like Fl. is something we have come to learn to live with.but when you hardly ever turn nothing down unless you know for sure the run is going to cost you money. Example we live hour north of Tampa.We know We will more then likely have to DH...

since the the 8th when we del. in fl. we have stayed available for loads we were only 30 miles from home so we went there,but stayed available.with no load offers we DH out of Fl. on the morning of the 10th (Sunday).we DH all the way to Jackson,Ga.400 miles, we sat there till the 13th.finally...
