5 o'clock?? Since when??? Started at 7 this morning, it's 6 and I'll probably be on a run tonight. Cargo vans.. ain't they great?

I've seen that one. Laughed my butt off. If someone offered me a ride, a 48 would be great :) beats the 24 behind my seat in this cargo van ;) One thing is for sure. If the owner is also running a truck, the truck this guy is requesting will likely be the owners. And I doubt very highly a owner...

hey wait.. I live in Minnesota and have spent a lot of time around cows... I hope I am not the master of bull crap! Then again. I have been called worse if that is my title. :D

RE: Preparing to invest... but it isn't an investm Oh goodie, something I know something about. Panther and fuel surcharges. I just sat through day one of training. They say 84% of their customers pay a surcharge, it veries from .04 a mile to one customer that pays .32 a mile (that is a hard...

Just saw it on fox news. Blew the building that mixes octane boosters with gasoline to bits. 1 or more killed near 100 injured. A problem like this effects 25-30% of the gasoline in america. Watch for higher gas prices, they will probably hike diesel too, I am not sure if the refinery can still...

I ran a mack for my previous carrier, now it sits because it is to old for Panther (such is life). Mine is a midliner, the WORST for getting parts due to the fact that NONE of it is American. It is probably not a good compairision. However, it never left me walking, parts could be got quickly if...

if the box is not mounted to the cab it is rather simple. Cut all U-bolts and lift the box carefully and insert a 4X4 cut to size needed on each frame rail and install new ubolts.. and enjoy. Of course be SURE you know how high your truck is, if it is close to 13'6 your gonna have a lot of...

For every lowballer you put out of business, 4 more pop up. That is why they are always around. I use to work for one, he's going broke. But that won't stop the next guy from accepting the same freight for the same money. I like the idea of the law to force the big guys that might be fudging the...

I got my amatuer license a few years ago to be able to legally carry a scanner that will pickup police bands (in Minnesota it is legal and legal nation wide, no officer has ever questioned it) I find that to be the MOST reliable source of info. I really want to get a higher powered radio so I...

both antennas are about 7 feet apart. So I am not sure if that is the issue. I have been listening to the XM today (got both until my prepaid XM runs out) and there is no change. However, I uninstalled Norton anti-virus and my computer is running MUCH faster and the program has not locked up...

It's a nice thought. Won't work though. Lowballers will just lower their rates so they can take additional surcharge and run at basically the same rates. There is NO money for inforcement, so who is going to force a company to pay it through to the driver? Of course the driver should quit but...

good, and willing to insure a straight truck sometimes are not both avaliable. Try Great West, or Progressive.

I assume you treat them as vans? BTW I'll be at your office tomorrow for orentation, can't wait to get back out on the road again. My van looks so naked with no name on it.

I removed mine this morning. Found 1 con already at about 11:30 pm... I fell out of the darn bunk! I guess it use to keep my butt on it, gonna hafta sleep the other way so the driver seat keeps me in bed I guess :D

RE: Fuel price higher in w. TN due to broken fuel Yup, they are making a profit. And it sucks. But if your carrier could charge 4 dollars a mile they would, if you could get 95% of that, you'd take it. Part of the problem with fuel prices right now is that demand has not changed. The amount of...

I just bought one today. The first one had bad media out of the box. (so back to the store I went) the second one installed fine and seemed to work but had a *hell* of a time holding much more than a 2-D signal with the antenna on the dash. I moved the antenna to the shelf above my head (I have...
