As with the carrier forums, it could be locked to special requirements to join in posting. If ever in Shipshewana,IN there is a pet boutique downtown for those special items for Fido! Also while in Shipshewana if an emergency need arises for your pet, as did for Abby, ARI can guide you to an...

Thats a very true possibility OTV. We are already preparing for that if and when the time comes. In our case Abby is in bed, either in her bed or... Dad's sooooo bad! As we understand it, the pet will not be permitted to be in the "cab" area of the vehicle while its being driven. Simple...

Exactly! As we land in different areas looking for a SAFE place to exercise Abby, it would be helpful to fellow EO members if information from others that have used these areas was shared. Also, on road pet emergencies can be stressful when needing a vet. Any member that has used a vet other...

Many members on this forum are trucking pet owners. Some have had on-board pets for years, others like myself have only recently brought a full-time pet on the truck. They bring joy to the truck in many ways. I have approached the administrator of this site with the concept of adding a forum...

No I don't think its the result of all those O/Os that lost their trucks. I've not heard of any in what we do loosing their trucks. Mostly its been leaving for retirement, money elsewhere when things got slow, health issues, etc. Of course as teams left, more freight became availible for the...

Thanks Moose but we're wanting access to 30amp shorepower connect to give genset a rest and water connect so we can take a Loooong shower and not worry about our water tank running dry! LOL Found a working ranch in Ellensburg, WA about 128 miles from Seattle that has an rv park on the ranch...

Any recommendations on campgrounds or rv resorts in the Seattle, Everette, North Bend, WA area from the rv'n expediters in this community? Need commercial vehicle friendly and accessible for a T/T rig where I can store my trailer safely on site in their storage area.

With Obama only being in the Whitehouse a little less than two years, and based on our revenue since the beginning of January, 2010, it would appear the the Bush/Obama stimuli is working. At least for us. Suprisingly, we are enjoying our best gross revenue year thus far as compared to the last...

Not saying that their crap is bothering me. Personally I get a kick out of it. I was just making an obsevation of what I'm sure many on this forum have also dealt with. Thought there may be some good stories to be told by some of the rest of the community here. Maybe we could get some laughs!

The CB radio may end up being your safety net (especially at night) when backing into a tight hole. Many times a professional driver sitting in a vantage point will help by watching your back and reporting information to you on the cb. Two sets of eyes are ALWAYS better than one. Many times my...

I realize I have an apartment on wheels, but it should not come with the territory. Especially when I can put my rig in a tight hole faster than many drivers can put their smaller rig in an EASY hole. The point is: amazing how quickly SO MANY drivers out here are to critique one's backing or...

Location would be an airport. Clean washroom and shower is our own cause we know how it was been cleaned (or not). Restraunt that has passed: an inspector would jump for joy in my kitchen! Sadly, many of the once "GOOD" truckstops have slide down the hillside with the exception of...

When you've walked in my shoes, then you can justifiably critique my driving abilities driver! Is'nt it amazing how many drivers out here want to drive your truck for you, or think they can. God forbid you delay them even a few seconds as you manuver your rig into a space, be it a dock or a...

On our way to Minneapolis from Miami! We haven't been there since leaving the Fed over two years ago. Now our freight lanes typically keep us running the southern E/W interstates and up the east coast to JFK. Although we miss going through a lot of places like Portland, Seattle, Vegas, Black...

Sadly, I'm a man of conviction. I don't believe in divorce. And look what that got me! LOL To prove that, I spent the last six years of my prior marriage married to a MISERABLE woman to be with, only because as a father it was my place to be there to raise my children into adults. Guess I got no...

Greg, you are sooo right on don't get divorced. Unfortunately, we would all have to live in a fantasy world for that to happen. None of us go into a marriage with the intent on divorcing our partner later on. One does not have to be an abusive, cheating A-Hole to cause a marriage to end. None of...

EXACTLY!!! When the Florida Senate was in session this past March, an organization I'm associated with hoped to finally bring reform to Florida's alimony law (Statute 61.08). This organization consist of hundreds of men like myself that have been ordered to pay alimony to ex-wives for the...

I will Sunday evening. Just finished my driving shift and got to get some sleep. We are on a Hot Hot Hot run and no time to explain tonight.

They claim they became lawers because of their passion for law. When in fact the passion is really for the all mighty dollar! They claim they have your best interest at heart and will do everything to see that you get your just reward. Reality is they could care less if they win or loose because...
