    Carrier Appearal Question; Removing Old Logos

    Ya know those purple tee shirts they have? Very durable! Still use them regularly. They make great muscle shirts for showing off the tats, tarping in 100 degree plus weather sweat'n my a... off, etc. Simply cut the sleeves off with a pair of scissors, kinda like Larry the Cable Guy. Through...

    Love me tender, love me sweet, never let me go

    7.5 (7500watt) HDKAT unit. Placed in service April, 2006 As of yesterday, 16,800 trouble free hours, plus still doesn't burn a drop of oil. Problem that developed yesterday is a burned wire shorting to the block that can't be accessed without dropping the unit. Going to have Onan put new wire...

    over weight on steers

    In the four years we have owned this truck, and the numerous times we've been pulled in and checked for this reason, that has yet to be an issue. I can see where with permitted heavy haul loads, they may be a bit more on the picky side. Of the hundreds of long wheelbase large cars out here like...

    over weight on steers

    Charrol, This is the king of over weight on the steer axle speaking! Actually we are not. DOT just thinks we are on a regular basis. We run 14,200- 14,600 lbs all of the time. Empty or loaded. Been as heavy as 15,120 lbs loaded. And we are legal! How? By having the right tires. We run...

    where do you live?

    When I turned (threw the keys in the scallywag's face) the keys in to his/her truck, I would look em square in the eye and say "It none of your business if I own a home or not BTCH! Oh, and take your bank and shove it where the sun don't shine!" Problem solved! Next scoundrel?:D

    Fedex C.C.

    My point exactly! Cheri1122 makes good points such as "we are all adults presumably capable of taking care of ourselves, and dealing with the consequences of mistakes." Also "Unless the carrier specifically recommended that owner, they are not responsible" and last but not least "move on, lesson...

    Fedex C.C.

    How much longer will carriers such as mentioned in this thread continue to turn a blind eye towards questionable fleet owners? Especially when they receive calls from the drivers of said fleet owners reporting the ongoing unethical and dishonest actions being repeatedly committed against one...

    Phil made the jump

    Plus Phil, the fantastic customer service you and Diane provide will not only be appreciated by the customers you serve, but also hopefully the new carrier you have chosen to lease on to. That has been our experience from day one with our current carrier ever since we chose to leave FedEx Custom...

    Bad Storms

    Remember when you used to have to buy the book of "ticket" at Disney World instead of the all day (all inclusive) passes you now purchase. You always tried to save the "E" tickets for last and trashed the dorky ones like Mad Hatter's Tea Party". Since the "E" rides were the baddest and scariest...

    Bad Storms

    Spending holiday weekend at ARI Sleepers in Shipshewanna,IN. Storm came over us about 16:30hrs. Moved through traveling approximately 40mph. Winds were extreme for about 10 minutes, picking up items stormed outside their building and blowing them around. Thankfully their 6' chain link fence...

    What is it about idling?

    I'm proud to say that I'm doing my part to be green! Not sitting in a truck stop having running my engine or gen-set because of the noise of some jerk next to me high idling his/her truck and the engine fan constantly cycling on and off. Or the stench of urine or diesel exhaust, or ****ing off...

    Way to go EPA!

    That is exactly my point. As in past genius ideas EPA has put in place to save the planet, they've quickly learned that their plan was greatly flawed, thus resulting in even bigger problems than the one they originally were trying to change. Then they are forced to spend millions of more of our...

    Way to go EPA!

    I wonder if the "Brainiacs" at the EPA [Environmental Protection? Agency] thought of this when they mandated stricter diesel emissions rules back in 2010 (see attached photo)? In attempting to save the air we breath by removing the Nox produced by burning diesel fuel, and excepting DEF...

    Irreponsible Pet Owners!!!

    I totally agree with you Leo. In her narrative of the incident it sounds as if the attack was primarily on her two dogs, yet as she fought she herself became a target in an indirect manner. IMO, if the Bullmastiff(s) even threatened her while killing her dog(s), Animal Control should have...

    Irreponsible Pet Owners!!!

    Since there is no "Pet Forum" on this website, and I don't feel the soapbox will give this maximum exposure , I am posting the following here: Any pet owner that walks there pet dog UNLEASHED in a public place such as a truck stop is an irresponsible pet owner IMO! You truly cannot insure...
