    Limits on Idling Diesels by Iowa

    Good points, but there are a lot of ways to keep a house warm. Only a few ways to keep a truck warm.

    Obama Snubs Nation's Heros

    That was a good idea. It would have been pretty embarrassing if he was at the hip hop ball (or whichever ball it was) when Jay Z and young jeezy (or whatever his name is) let loose with the racial rants. Obama really should publicly denounce their statements considering he has said he likes...

    Fair and balanced?

    Don't forget the 600 private jets that flew in for the event. I wonder what kind of carbon footprint that left? Hey Shooter, Stop idling your rig! If you're cold put a sweater on or something. :D

    Schneider National Closing Terminals

    The shortage is probably their new -experienced drivers only- hiring model. I would guess not too many experienced guys are interested in jumping ship right now and all the newbies are quiting because of slow freight?

    do you know anything about cloud computing

    I'm not a designer, but I'm in the IT/Telecom biz so I am curious what you use cloud computing for. Are you looking to get something designed? or are you designing an app? Google has some pretty good productivity apps available. We just started using QuickBooks Online because the MS terminal...

    Socks!

    His guy passed me all in a big hurry today. I don't know what all the socks are about, but it looks like the trunk is stuffed full too! How long do you think it took to load? :D He never did leave the #1 lane.

    Obama

    Good luck Mr. President! Even if you don't agree with his policies it is still a proud day for all Americans when the old administration can hand off to the new administration with a firm handshake and heartfelt smiles all around. today= celebration tomorrow= politics as usual :D

    Another new driver believes the Hype on expediting.

    Yeah, I don't get it. I've been online practically everyday for 15+ years. There isn't a subject known to man that can't be researched online. Yet I have friends that barely own a computer, don't know how to use it and basically don't want to know. I can see how poorly informed they are not only...

    What grade would you give?

    I agree. I have read that GM overseas was actually doing well. That points to the government and unions for their Stateside problems. The proverbial "rock and a hard place" --Not to talk down on unions but instead it's basically like the way social security is going... Too few workers to pay the...

    What grade would you give?

    There have been many, many terrorist plots thwarted since 9/11. Of course the anti-bushies will downplay the significance of the plots. It is easy to claim a thwarted attack was insignificant. But just imagine if Bush stood up in front of the Nation on 09-10-01 and said they foiled the worst...

    Obama can save us

    I have no choice but to hope his economic plan works. I have my doubts about it, but I am all about the hope now. I'm guessing this "news cycle" will help. Instead of talking down the positive aspects of the economy as was done during the last 8 years the media will scramble to highlight any...

    Truck Parking

    Hi prof, The other two access doors are on the drivers side. The access doors pop open individually with the vehicle remote. I didn't even think of the hood. 10 door Express? :D I gotta be careful how I enter a jobsite. If I just pull up and pop the access doors everyone runs over thinking...

    Flying J Towing Scam

    Good points about who pays. I would say both points of view sound valid. Trucks should obtain their own legal parking. But the Government places tighter and tighter restrictions such as HOS, no-idle, ect. all the while they raise taxes more and more. That makes it more difficult to find and...
