Get some phone #'s of current and past drivers and talk to them. If they won't/can't give you any that you can call/talk to, RUN!!!!

Guessing that a tractor-trailer would go over before a straight truck would. More area on a 53' trailer for the wind to hit. I drove tractor-trailer for awhile back in the early 90's. Comming from Philly to Buffalo with an empty 53' trailer in high winds. Was at night, going across the Rt. 9...

We drove a CV leased to Blair for a couple months. Company wasn't bad, just ended up with a total jerk for an owner. They were decent and respectful to us. O/O's will be running against their company vehicles. An O/O and a company driver sitting in the same area guess who's getting the load...

Stop by any Red Cross office and pick up a book. Read that when you have idle time. Just because you can't take an "official class" doesn't mean you can't learn what to do in an emergency situation. Hopefully this guy sought some medical treatment before continueing down the road. I was a NY...

Next time thru, stop and ask someone. Maybe it's for sale, you can get your dream truck! :)

Head over to Cooperstown and do the Baseball Hall of Fame. How many chances will ya get to do that? :-)

I got my name w-a-y back when I was a kid. My best friend & I called each other by our last names. Mine was to long so he shortened it to Suds. To this day whenever I go home someone will call me that. I added the #43 for Richard Petty :-)

LEO, you are doing the right thing. Our Mother's and Father's are from day 1 the most influential people in our lives. Cherish the time you get to spend with him. I never had the chance to know my father man-to-man, he passed away when I was 18. You are a man among men for what you are doing...

The chrome shop is right next to I-75 in Wildwood. Was just there saturday for the big truck show they had over the week-end. Had some pretty impressive trucks there. had the two OCC bikes that were built for Cristner Trucking.

That might be right, Life Science Logistics. Was definitely a Panther trailer. Can't mistake the Kitty Cats

Sitting @ a rest area between Tampa and Ocala Fla. on I-75. See a Kitty-Cat TT going southbound. On the side of the trailer under the Big Cats it said Panther Scientific Logistics. First time I've seen one of them. A new division for Panther?

Sittin @ home in florida waiting for 'the call'. Oh wait, keep forgetting I'm retired. Some habits are hard to break!! LOL yall be safe out there!!

We can settle this pretty easily. Why don't YOU answer your own questionaire on here and let others compare to you??? Let's see whatcha got!! :-)

And everyone is checking their blinker fluid during pre/post-trip inspections right? Thats where alot of drivers are cited for infractions by Mr. DOT.

I drove for almost 4 yrs. Mostly in a str8t, a few months in a van. I had to quit driving for medical reasons. I'd go back to it in a split second if I could. Once it's in your blood you never get it out. When your an expediter, no matter what type vehicle you drive, your part of ''the family''.

sorry to get off subject......... Doing alright Chef!!! Kicking back in Fla.............SURE do miss the road!!!!!!!! Cindy says hello...

biggest advice............LISTEN to Davekc, ATeam, Team Caffee etc,.........they've all 'been there, done that'. Won't get any sounder advice than you will from them. Don't let expediting fool ya. Traveling, seeing the country and getting paid for it sounds great but expediting is WORK. You...

I'm definitely not going to ignore the problem thinking it will just go away. I'll take care of it a.s.a.p. Just wanted some suggestions on how to handle it. The problem is that the officer gave me a written warning, not sure if that's considered a ticket or not. When he turned in his...

Here's the problem.............W-A-Y back in April of 2005 I was stopped by the 'honorable' Texas Highway Patrol for a seatbelt violation. He did a full level 1 inspection of the truck, which passed, checked my log book and my co-drivers. Was a disagreement on if I was supposed to be still...

Unfortunately I've been 'sidelined' and retired because of physical problems. Sure do miss the road. Reading the posts keeps me 'connected' with the industry and friends that I've met thru exprditing. I have to admit that I DON'T miss all that snow and cold though. Battling the cold, the...
