My fleet owner is great. On friday we get a pay sheet with a breakdown of everything he got from Tri-State. On thursday we get our money deposited on our TAB card. Plenty of times something has come up and he has given us advances on our pay, a few hundred dollars a few times. Something breaks...

Sorry hadn't checked this page in awhile didn't know anyone had even posted anything in it. Guess I should check it some more now that I know there are some people posting on it.

Ok I have to ask, what is Yamoo ??

I will not drive a Hino again until they fix some of the problems with them. They are to rough a ride. In september of 09 I had to come off the road and have surgery on my neck. I had a protruding disk in my neck completely strangling the spinal cord, almost paralyzed me. I am just now getting...

I bought a piece of equipment called Slingbox. I hooked it up to a cable box at home and now I can control and watch said cable box online anywhere. I currently have it connected to a DVR cable box so I can record shows also.

I found the program about 10 yrs ago and thought it was good then. I got out of the industry for a few yrs and forgot about it until about 3 yrs ago. Was driving for Con-Way Now at the time and got them allow it,s use. Then Panther bought them out and I got them to et us use it too. Then we had...

RE: ok anyone of a good place for down & out exped I keep hearing everyone say that they are sitting. Well I drive a D unit team for FECC and we haven't been sitting for more than one day. We have even picked up loads on sundays. And before anyone asks I am in a barebones Columbia. No reefer or...

Only writing I have to do on my logs is my signature. I use DDL www.DriversDailyLog.com on my laptop. It is not automated like Werner or Panther, works just like a paper log. Print out 2 copies at the end of the day and everything is where it needs to be. Just sign and put one in tripak, the...

I would like to see some pics of that setup, maybe even talk to the drivers. Any clue on how to reach them ??

While I agree with the biker being an idiot for revving it in the parking lot at the wrong time. I don't agree about the loudness issue. While driving down the road with the windows up and radio playing, I can hear the bikes coming. With so many drivers being distracted while driving nowadays...

When I was in college they used our names for the computer systems. The first 6 of your last name, the first and middle initial. So it was WHEELEJM. So I just edited it alittle and got WHEELJAM

If anyone is interested there is a program out there that allows us to do our log books on the computer. It's called DDL or Drivers Daily Log. The major expediters will allow us to use this program. www.driversdailylog.com Panther is the only one that uses the generic log form that comes with...

We have stopped at a few Cracker Barrels across this country. We have never been turned away from one of them. There food is great and resonably priced. The plus side is their menus are sssoooo different from the trucks stops, which is a welcome change.

How many dispatchers are actually looking for loads, or are they just sitting around waiting to be called ???

RE: No bashing, a little advice to X-Conway Now Ow Well our owners just switched most of us over to Tri-State. The trucks they had on were doing twice as much money as us on with Panther. Still seeing how things work. Plus both Panther and Tri-State allow us to use our log program DDL. We love it.

Well we run a team in this truck, lowering the airbags keeps the truck alot more stable when using a fork lift. Lets the co driver stay asleep during loading and unloading. Been in trucks that you couldn't lower the bags, and was always awakened by the fork lifts bouncing the truck all over.

Thats what I mean. Is there one place that has listings of what companies are out there, and what the sell. Like JC Whitney or something like it. I am just looking for different things. Something to say cool I like that kinda thing.

Does anyone know of a web site or message board that deals with accessories for trucks ??

Another good program to have is DDL www.DriversDailyLog.com. You can do all your logs on the computer, just like if you were doing it in the log book. You can change the information anytime you want, it isn't set in stone like some systems, you control it.
