    Truly A Sad Day For Gas Powered Expediters

    Pilot's buyout of Flying J does nothing for those of us who drive/own gas powered trucks. The Pilot Driver's Points Card that is being passed out at Flying J's (Knoxville for example) requires that you purchase 50 gallons of DIESEL to get a shower credit. I strongly suggest that EVERY gas...

    Much Better Now

    Thank you so very much to those who sent PM's and emails. I am doing much better. Health isssues have been resolved and things are back to normal. I have been quite busy and that helps with the adjustment after the dissolution. I would request prayer for Aletha that God would deal with her...

    Driving Without Lines

    Thursday night at 11:30pm I left Dayton in a rental car and headed to Buffalo to pickup the truck. From the Flying J in Austinburg (east of Cleveland) all the way to Buffalo I drove on packed snow. I couldn't even see the pavement. It was pretty much 40mph all the way. And the drive back...

    Prayer Request

    Isolators

    I have researched both Sure Power and Hellroaring isolators. The Hellroaring seems much easier to install. Anyone have experience with either?

    Homeless

    I won't go into all of the reasons, but it looks as though my home will be sold on Monday; not my choice. I have another chassis on order and hopefully the timing will work out so I don't have to spend money living in a motel until the chassis arrives at the builder. By the Grace of God...

    2006 Chevrolet Express with headlamp problems

    A fellow expediter was telling me last night that he has been experiencing repeated headlamp failures. He changes the headlamp it works OK for a while then it starts to dim and finally fails. Anyone else had this problem? If yes, what is the fix?

    Home Away From Home

    I wonder how many expediters would be interested in staying at a non-smoking home where they would have a comfortable bed, hot shower, use of the kitchen, laundry, watch a DVD and just relax for a mere $23/night. A place located a mere 500 yards off I-75 with easy access. Sort of like a Bed...

    How To Get Meds

    What do folks do to get a prescription renewed when they are on the road? Many physicians require an annual visit in order to renew a person's prescription. I have been taking the same BP med for years. As a former member of the medical community I know how to check my BP! Why force me to...

    Problems with a carrier of fleet owner

    In the past few months there appears to be a increase in the number of folks who are not getting paid for their work. Some carriers have changed their time frames for settlements, but some of the little guys with a few trucks have become outright liars when it comes to paying those operating...

    Choice

    Two Choices What would you do?....you make the choice. Don't look for a punch line, there isn't one. Read it anyway. My question is: Would you have made the same choice? At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves children with learning disabilities, the father of one of the...

    RE: Moved Postings

    Many have attempted to post "all" of the facts, but their posts get moved to the netherworld where no one can see them or mysteriously disappear altogether. Come on...think about it for just a moment. My previous post was moved and I never uttered the first word about any carrier. I...

    Drive-By Postings

    Does it really matter whether someone has posted once, twice, three times or up to the magical number of five to include content thay "may" be deemed as a negative post regarding any particular issue? If that is the rule would it not seem logical that a person will post five times in order to...

    Pressing The Issue

    Independent Thinkers “For who maketh thee to differ from another?” God does not replicate. I am told there is really no such thing as identical twins. From snowflakes to fingerprints—you’ll not find an exact likeness. How monotonous and boring this world would be if all were like the toy...
