Since I cannot post in the FECC forum, I'll post the following here: What TeamCaffee mentioned regarding tire capacity, meaning the design weight carrying capacity of the tire verses actual weight loaded onto the tire, is extremely important as more scales are looking more closely at this as...

Have had truck in shop getting winterized. All new batteries put in Thursday morning. We don't like going into the winter months wondering if the batteries will take the cold so we replace them before. Cheaper than a service truck or tow on the side of the interstate.

I tried wearing a tie to our current job, kinda a carry over from my FECC days I guess. Learned real quick ties and the freight I currently haul are a real bad match. Sorta like matching pasley with stripes. Hey, don't let that tie get caught in the....

Go hangout around Love Field area. Strokers bike shop and Strokers Icehouse and tattoo shop within walking distance. Watch the planes, hangout with the bikers and get a tattoo. Have you ever seen a drunk H E L L S Angel signing kareoke to his biker babe in front of all his buddies? Now that's fun!!!

Actually, our addiction is not to truckstops or any one truckstop in particular. Instead our addiction is to the sweet smell of burning aviation fuel and burning rubber from the tires of the A-320 Airbus loaded with passengers that landed hard and bounced a few times down the runway before...

Since there is no pet forum, I will post this message in the general forum for expediters that have pets on-board: Our breeder that we purchased our boston terrier Abby from informed us that another client of hers, that is a driver has had two dogs stolen from his T/T in two separate...

Can anyone tell me why the smoke/co detector in our sleeper is malfuntioning? It is located 6-8" above the floor. Its fine when we are driving down the road. Don't hear a peep out of it when I'm cooking. Does'nt seem to matter if the gen-set is running or not. Backup battery is fine. Since we...

I think you may truely be onto something sinister here Turtle. I wouldn't put anything past the likes of them! :p

Well thats just to bad! I just finished putting out a tray of Ritz crackers with melted colby jack cheese on them next to a tray of fresh veggies with dipping sauce and a really awesome bowl of fruit punch! Steaks go on the grill in an hour. Sorry you will be missing the party. Dancing girls...

Cheri, whos that knocking on your door? Kinda looks like the big T! Hurry, stuff Kenzy's ears with cotton so she can't hear the wistle and put some Vicks in her nose so she can't smell his treats! Don't forget the contraban in the sleeper. Rumor is they (no-named carrier) are offering a free...

Nothing since I'm no longer contracted to FedEx. My only real interest here is (and having stated my respect for Terry and Rene) that I hope Phil's choice to post publically parts of a private conversation between Terry, Diane, and himself without Terry's consent will have no negative effect on...

Finally, as we once wore the same wonderful blinders regarding the Fed, its sounds to me as it another pair has fallen off and into the mud! LOL

The real question is: would FedEx want Terry sharing what some (not saying myself) might deem as an underhanded tactic with ANY of the contractors or their drivers that are leased to them. Or would their preference have been to keep it under the radar. By sharing this publically does the Fed see...

Terry, tell the EO community this is not true! I have ALWAYS had a huge respect for you and Rene but I have to agree with OTV. If you are in fact rifling thru ones sleeper as OTV alleges, that is over the top if it is random and without "probable cause" meaning one driver saw a FDCC driver...

Yea, I was actually headed to the other end to park near the Sothern Pride truck. At the last second changed my mind to back into the spot near you. had a bad set up to begin with but did not want to go around again to get a proper set up for the hole. Had another T/T coming around and did'nt...

God Turtle, after all that I don't even know where the begin! LOL What are the carrier forums? They are exclusive to drivers leased to a specific carrier. Example: As much as I dislike FDCC and I am not afraid to tell it, why would admin allow a non FDCC member access to the FDCC...

Let me ask this: What are the carrier forums on this website? Are they not a place for like members, meaning FedEx drivers or Panther or Tri-State drivers, etc to have and using your words "an exclusive use forum" for discussions with like drivers leased to same carrier on topics exclusive only...

OK Turtle, turning this thread in a new direction: Since I'm not with FedEx, would the administrator approve permission for me (or anyone not affiliated with FDCC) to post on that thread? What would be its purpose? If you have a thread for truckers with on-board pets, whats wrong with...

Yep, that was me in my 80' barge that botched a perfectly easy angle back! LOL We all know deck haulers can't back up!

You've got to be kidding! Delivered at Boeing earlier today. At Donna's Travel Resort and Spa in Marysville. Wife is at the casino gambling. I'm guarding the rig and the dog so nobody steals em! LOL
