Tony except for the smoking thing my habits are exactly like yours.I have been on a modified Adkins for a few months now,and have dropped about 20 lbs.I would like to lose more but i seem to feel better with about 25% more carbs than Adkins suggest.

A "C" with most companys requires dock height and must carry a payload of 5000#.The SPRINTER would only quallify as a "B".Your figures are about right on the low end for the B and the high end for the C.This assumes you intend to run single.GOOD LUCK!

What about your partner?Is she/he willing to live like a sailor?If so go for it.We teamed in a van for a couple of years before moving up to a "C" unit.It was sure a good way to get our feet wet and decide if this business was for us.You Will need to budget a few motels now and then to retain...

Its information like this that makes these forums great.When they started TrPak,Ibegan keeping track of the location but as time went by I kind of slacked off.Now I am back on it,and will continue to do so.I dont believe this info would cause FECC to pay the lost runs any faster,but Trp Pak...

I will pass on a "truck Stop"rumer. and we all know how reliable they are. The story was that one of those Fedex drivers with one of the very first units brought into this country said the Sprinter is really mean to handle on snow and ice.He was supposed to have said."you just cant control...

I cant say enough good things about XM.We bought the first one sold in Detroit.(Oct 2001).It has preformed flawlessly every since. I became a stockholder Aug 15,02.I wont say how much I bought,but I used 25% of my inheritance(Moma would be proud) The way things are going I will be able to...

I would echo Wild Bills coments.This is the only diet that works in truckstops.You cant order low fat or low cal.But you can have them hold the bread and potatoes back.A few will even give you a little off the bill.(Ft Wayne Truck Plaza)We carry string cheese single strips,that are convenient...

WHOOPS..;Forgot those E units(Tractor)they carry upto 44,000#

For Fedex B unit{vans)carry loads up to 2000#...C units Carry upto 5000#...D units carry upto 13000#

The reason why I prefer a "C"trk is that C loads are the most requested by shippers.D drivers tell me they haul about 75% C loads.You would then think The C would be hauling a lot of B freight. Not so, We only haul 10% B. WHY HAUL AROUND ALL OF THAT EXTRA TRK?

Its been about 10yrs since I tried to do this very thing.At that time I found it very dificult to keep the weight under 8000# so you could still handle a 2000# payload. Nowdays you have the new sprinter and fiberglass people that may make it work.I finally gaveup,and went with a "C"truck.Our...

LIFE SWAPPING

Gsorge if you are now paying $104 a week it sounds like you were better off with FECC.I pay $233 PER MONTH.

RE: Is Your Trade In Really Gone/Really Despicabl This exact same thing happened to me.Im sure some dealers use this as a tool regulary to maximize their cash flow.The dealer went out of business shortly after my problems.

It is sad to see the quality at timmys slowly slipping away.No doubt this is due to the Bean Counters at WENDYS being in charge.Dave is turning over in his grave.They are not serving his memory well by serving cold burgers and watered down chili. My bet is that as time goes by timmys will meet a...

Will someone please explain why this cant be held on a weekend.We would loose nearly a weeks work to attend.By the time you take yourself out of service on tue to DH there,and try to get yourself back out.The week is SHOT.Could it be that the "suits"dont want to give up their weekend?

Why is it that the absolute worst seem to be in the lansing area?Is it the water,or what?

RIGHT ON RICH...Take him down if you have to.Constant winning is getting to me too.About the new bldg in green WOW. I have to wonder if they didnt visit memphis asking for twice what they needed...and got it.

Well fellows I for one love the new L/O options.This week we were given CIN 348 mi or NAS 94 mi.I cheched the VRU and noticed only 2 trks in MEM. We chose to go there.After 6 hrs we han a nice 748 mi run.This is a great tool,but like any other tool,it has to be used wisely.Remember with options...

Oh those cell phones...You are oh so right!!!We had a jerk in a pickup truck rearend us while going down the freeway(he was trying to pass us and dial cell phone at the same time)He didnt even end the call after we pulled over to fill out the accident report.Truckers are also to blame for misuse...
