I wanted to share this with everyone on EO about what can happen to your truck if someone doesn't know what they are doing when doing a repair on your truck.

How much has Expediting changed since you started? The old days of Expediting was so much different almost 18 years ago for me. Expediters Online hadn't even started up. Roberts Express was the big Expedite carrier. If you had a 60 inch sleeper you was in heaven with a big sleeper. We all had...

I just put a post up in regards to Greg334 and come back to see it moved. I don't understand why you guys are doing this kind of stuff. Are you trying to run off your members? It's not my website, but you will leave some crazy thing in the General Expedite Forum that should be moved and you move...

MY DAD IS A DANCER One day a fourth-grade teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up: fireman, mechanic, businessman, salesman... and so forth. However, lttle Justin was being uncharacteristically quiet, so when the teacher prodded him...

We signed a truck on with Try Hours a few weeks ago and I must say that it has been very nice so far. No calls in the middle of the night from drivers that need fuel because they load 50% of the total payable's of the load on the Com Data card, not just the line haul. Some carriers only load a...

I know a team that I consider friends that have slowed down to increase their truck MPG. By doing this they also saved a lot of money in fuel costs. You would be surprised how high you can increase MPG when you slow down. Team Caffee from FedEx Custom Critical has a Blog on EO in regards to it...

So how many years does everyone have in the transpotation industry? Dreamer made a good point about this in the EHOF post.

We are looking for a group of people that can meet every year at the EXPEDITE EXPO that wants to be apart of the Expediters Hall of Fame. The site has done very well and has had almost 14,000 hits over the last year with not many people knowing about it. The Expediters Hall of Fame is not owned...

What is the most famous Expedite Trucks? I can only think of two. The first one and the most famous is the Little Duce Coupe of Glen and Janice Rice. The other one is the Stars and Strips of Phil and Diane Madsen. I don't know that is the name of the Madsen truck. But that is what I have always...

We have a truck doing a load for the Super Bowl and I wanted to see how much tickets were. The cheapest one I found was $2246.00 in the nose bleed section. Is that CRAZY or what?

As we close out the first month of the year I would like to ask how everyone's year going so far? Our year started off better than last year and we are up as a fleet on everything. That is to be expected as we have grown our fleet by four trucks for the same time last year. I hope everyone is...

After having a major problems with a truck stop shop that we have used for the last five years, we have made a choice to change to another national truck stop chain. So what truck stop chain do you like to use?

How many people send a 1099 to their carrier for QC/C-link charges and fee's they charge. This is income for your carrier and you should be sending them a 1099.

Since most carriers are paying tolls for some loads. Would pay $20.00 a week to have Ez Pass and Pre Pass in your truck or trucks. It's less paperwork for you and the carrier. I know I would if it was offered.

I just got off the phone with a friend living in North Dakota, near the Canadian Border. He said that since early this morning the snow has been coming down, It is nearly waist high and is still falling. The temperature is dropping way below zero and the north wind is increasing to near gale...

Expedite owners back in 1995 paid drivers 50% of what the truck made and they paid the fuel, and tolls. There was no FSC at this time because fuel was at $1.20 per gallon. When fuel started going up back in 2001 owners gave drivers 60% to help with the cost of fuel as there wasn't any kind of...
