Spuds...Thanks..currently we have 6 of the 07's 4000's in the fleet. However can't get my hands on anymore pre-emission engine's. So we are going to have to go with 08's. Not alot of data on the post emission's other then what DD has published. We all know that info is one sided. The...

Ok...I've been trying for days to find a user friendly accounting software. One that doesn't require me to spends weeks just trying to set it up! I've been the Quickbooks route and have lost half my hair. I know there has to be an easier way! Currently I'm useing Excel for everything but...

In defense of the former Conway people. This problem goes much higher up the chain. The former Conway's (which I HATE that pharse, they are TS people) that are in the office do not have the power to make a change of this size. As for dispatch, they are the best in the business. If anyone that...

Doc, All I want to say is THANK YOU!!!! You hit the nail on the head.
