Guess I need to figure out where these two coolant lines with shutoff going to the engine are used for then??

What would cause the coolant system to build pressure, and leak out of the overflow tube? I had a oil analysis done the first of april, and no coolant was found in the oil. The system has been flushed, heater core acid washed, new hoses put on. Radiator cap replaced, ect. I also have a...

RE: State Police Warning To ALL!! Please Read.... Probably is a myth.. In my case it was forwarded to me from a overly protective mother that got the email from a Indiana State Tropper. She still hates the fact that I left the factory to drive a truck.. LOL

I don't ever mind if someone wakes me up because their too tired. I would rather get up and drive, then have to wake up, upside down in a ditch somewhere. But when you get woke up at every city, drop off, pickup, scale,fuel stop, ect.. It's get's to the point that I haven't slept at all...

I actually think it's a deeper than just experience or not. Most have had experience. They have just been ruined by the thought that you run 6-8 hours from point A to B, then sit and wait for a day or so for your next load offer.. You know, we have to be at the truck stop by 7pm so that...

I don't ever force my goals on anyone.. Nor do I expect them to have my goals.. Actually I am glad that most people don't have my goals.. It makes it easier on me to make my money.. Do people actually sit in the seat for 11 hours?? Well yes, there are those of us that do.. And maybe...

TEC, The new HOS will not allow the 5 split.. You can run a 8/2 split, but running team, that doesn't work well either..

I always let the team members pick the hours that they want to drive. So 8-8 was the hours that they picked.. The reason was because of less traffic, ect.. And that makes me think twice again. For me personally, I don't care if it's Brooklyn at 7am or Billings MT at 10 pm, a job is a job...

I don't know if I am just an complete idiot or what anymore.. I lay out my expectations to people while at the house during our interview, and all of them seem to talk the talk, but can't walk the walk once on the road.. Is it unreasonable to expect someone to sit in a seat 11 hours out of...

Have you looked at the poverty level in today's society? How about the average cases of bankruptcy each month? Number of foreclosed mortgages? The list could go on and on.. Financial independence.. Isn't that what most people are searching for in life. I have tried and tried, but the...

I would wonder why you are getting a 60% split, and paying for maintenance? I am assuming that you are a sub-contractor driving for and O/O. And if this is infact that case, why are you paying for maintenance?

OVM, I love that you put biker on the same list of drugs and gangs. Seeing that most of the "american motorcycles" sold today at the average cost of 17k are sold to a group that has been considered "upper-middle" class. The days of the classic motorcycle gangs are gone.. The largest...

Is this more profitable than sitting another day?? I guess I'm just spoiled.. I take the guaranteed money everyday!!

I just want to know where you find a good team member? I am either woken up axle deep in mud. Lost in New York. He's tired. The list could go on.. It seems like every time I put a team member in the truck, I loose money... No thank you, I'll runner myself..

Just think if that lonely old security gaurd was just voluntering his time and was really a major CEO of a company such as GM, Ford, Chrystler, Dana, the list could go on and on.. How many times afer that do you think that particular carriers phone would ring with that said company on the other...

When ever I run team, I set hours for the truck. Normally 7pm-7am, then the opposite driver works 7am-7pm. You will always be able to log 1 hour break during your 12hr shift. Such as loading, unloading, fueling, bathroom breaks, ect.. Even if not on a load, I try to stay on the same...

Col, how did you ever afford to take a layover like that? Running that "cheap" freight again? By the way, what kind of load did you get heading out of Texas? Hauling a professional beach volleyball court??
