    do not want h/m or cross border

    While I can understand why some do not want what could seem as a "hassle" crossing the border..... IMO you are seriously damaging your full potential by not obtaining your Haz-Mat endorsement. I have seen it all too many times where a truck sits far too long because they were not qualified to...

    Prepaid WiFi and MiFi

    Truckstop WiFi is sketchy at best and with a 5GB limit on MiFi you can find yourself creeping up on that quite quickly. I switched to the HTC Evo with comes with WiFi and is Unlimited for only $30.00 / month. Of course with the evo you are also paying that $10.00 / month premium service fee...

    After Orientation Positioning

    If I were you, I would stay in Lodi or head over to Canton. You don't have too many choices without racking up some deadhead miles before getting your first load. IMO, Lodi / Canton is one of the best express centers in the country.

    Scam

    I am a linux man myself, but you know, the Mac OS runs off pretty much the same kernel as linux..... If I remember correctly, Mac was originally designed around the FreeBSD kernel. While it is true that Mac's can get Viruses it is extremely RARE. Also keep in mind that that linux box can be...

    How are straight truck drivers driving for fleet owners doing mileage/income wise?

    Re: How are straight truck drivers driving for fleet owners doing mileage/income wise Looks to me like you've already had some good advice here. If I were you, and what I did when I first started out in this business... Find and owner, get hooked up with an experienced lead driver who can...

    Laptops computers

    Hey Stevydean, The best question you should ask yourself is what is the best laptop you can get within your budget. Yes, there are very cheaply made computers, but in the end they all suffer from the same problem. The problem is electronics and little moving parts will tend to wear out...

    This why I i'm not posting on here.

    Personally I find all these personal attacks quite childish. Obviously someone has a bug in their butt over Dave.... As Daves co-driver I have heard him boast about these forums and talk about them with various people in the industry. He seemed as if this was him home on the Net. He has...

    I'm not an O/O... just a driver, but I can tell you that you will have a hard time finding an O/O with an automatic.. I know their are some out there.... but 99% of the trucks on the road are standards.... Most trucks are syncronized shifting.... You will always need to clutch out of first...

    Mexican Trucks Article

    I think this is something everyone needs to take a hard look at. The Automotive Industry has already be affected at a damaging rate and as truckers you all have felt the trickle down effect from that already. Now if Mexican drivers are allowed to take to the US roadways then say goodby to...
