I agree Raceman, but as I said earlier, when your bringing on drivers or O/O who can't figure out how to read a map, what do you expect. (Well, maybe the map example was a bit much, but you know what I mean) The biggest problem with calling Dispatch, is, alot of the people working there don't...

Great stuff, but there seems to be a "Death" theme here.

If the driver you're doing the swap with would read their Driver Handbook, they would know that the BOL and any other paperwork should stay with the freight. I had that problem several months ago, and I had to get my book out and show the driver I was taking the freight from, what it said. Their...

DADDY! How I've missed you so! ;-)

I use EZPass, and I love it! Since I live in Ohio, I registered through PA. Entered all the information online, and they sent me the transponder in the mail. I use the credit card method. They have my CC number on file, and charged it ($35.00) to begin with. As I go through toll booths, the...

The only info on the Macro 8, that valid information, is the miles from the city listed, and the average run. Please keep this in mind, I was told that that average is for the last 21 days, not the last week. As for the "unit" info, no one can tell me when that is updated, so it's worthless...

YOU TURNED DOWN ALMOST $800.00!!!! to keep the wife happy? Wives are a dime a dozen. She can get the big muscle bond guy down the street to move heavy stuff. Your not thinking man! Just kidd'n! :+ Sometimes, you gotta do, what ya gotta do. Hope things are going well. Be safe.

I'm on Raceman's band wagon on the MS S&T program. I have not used the CoPilot program/system, but I've heard lots of comments about the speed of the updates, and lots of other "issues". I'm running in a cargo van, and I use MS S&T on a laptop, and I love it. Works great everywhere I've been...

WOW! My head hurts. I'm going back to Putt-Putt...

I was set up, so if you crossed less the 5 times a year, with frieght, you just had to fill out an A8A and see the broker. Are they going to do away with that, and make every company that moves freight across the border, get a PARS number?

Nextel has the same tracking feature also. Only problem is, if your cellphone is on your belt, you may not be tracked as well as if it where laying on the dash.

I crossed the border 3 times last week. Twice in Windsor and once in Sarina. First crossing was from Columbus to Leamington. Crossing time was about 30 seconds. Second crossing was from Toledo to Cambridge. Crossing time about 2 minutes. Third and final time was Erie to Windsor. Crossing time...

I was at the Flying J in Stony Ridge last week, and I saw a cargo van, I believe it was a Landstar Express driver, with a small generator mounted in the center of the front bumper. What a great idea! With an electric start, that puppy could be run while your moving down the road if needed. Just...

Just a quick note... While I'm at home getting my van worked on, (body work from my deer kill late month), we through the family in the car and headed to try Cici's Pizza in Beavercreek, Ohio. If your in an area that has one of these, it's a great place to get a quick, cheap meal. It's buffet...

RE: Greetings From I was over there so much this week, that they told me Canada was closed Friday. Do you think they were trying to tell me something? :7

RE: Greetings From Ditto! I'm just glad they have Canada Day and close everything. Keeps me from crossing the border at least once this week. I've been up there so much, I think their going to ask me to obtain duel citizenship.

WOW! I'm impressed! You even know how to spell Buckeye! LOL:o

I don't need to break her of any habits. Iwear the pants in my family, my wife told me I could!
