I just wanted to add, that I purchased the MS S&T because it has the maps for Canada. I've been up there 5 times this week, and I went right to the consignee's location everytime.

I use SprintPCS, and I love it. I'm a former Nextel user, and we switched due to the number of dead spots and the high cost. When we switched to Sprint, we went to 4 phones and a pool of minutes, and we were spending about the same amount as we where with 2 phones at Nextel. I have great...

A laptop with MS Streets & Trips is the way to go. Also allows you to do record keeping, and you can have access to the internet, if you want that. With access to the internet, you can get on EO where ever you are!

...you didn't drill any holes in it did you? :o

I bought a laptop last Saturday, and also purchased MS Streets & Trips. I really love the program. I am a "computer geek" and set-up and operation of this program is super easy. Went from Bellefontaine, Ohio to Buffalo, W Va, then to Lexington, KY. The only time the GPS was off, was going down...

...does that mean I'm not cool? :'( ...and does that also mean I can't wear my "Joe Cool" boxers anymore? Can someone please advise me as soon as possible, so I don't offend any of the people who took the test, and found out that they're cool.

I'm glad someone is moving. I'm not. I've only had 4 loads since the 25th of April. D/R keeps telling me, "hang in there...". Lets see what they say this morning. Good luck! I just wanted to add, that I love to work, and I take everything, so I can't understand why I'm not moving. (Sorry, just...

I got gas last Sunday, using the card from Kroger, for $1.94/gal. Thank God I've got two boys who eat like there's no tomorrow! :D Remember back in the day, when gas was $1.65/gal! WOW, if only...

Congrats LDB!

>Denney's, smiling like a chesire cat at the hostess smiling >at you, only to go into the bathroom later to discover you >have your shirt on inside out. I'm glad it was just you shirt! As I'm reading, I was thinking that you where going to discover that you ... and the "waitress" used the...

OK folks, after reading all of these great posts, I think I'm going to try a few new things. I'm thinking of wood carvings of voodoo dolls, and then trying to work that into the model airplane groove. I do see a problem crossing the border with sharp knifes, model airplane fuel and a verity of...

Glad to hear it was just a bit of the "buzzard puss" backing up on you, and not anything really serious. As stated already, you really need to watch your self while your out on the road. I found out that I'm diabetic, back in mid-July last year, and I've done everything I can to make sure that I...

Well, I'm glad you made it over and back without jail time or even some sort of "accident" in the holding area. :D I just hope I'm not behind you in line next time! LOL

Well, the Panasonic ToughBook, although my first choice, is a bit pricy, so yesterday, I did some shopping, and I purchased a Toshiba Satellite Model L15-S104 from Best Buy here in town. It was $799.00 with a $150.00 "rebate". I also puchased MS Streets and Trips 2005 GPS, with the...

Good luck and be safe out there!

merkurfan, Having a strong background in shipping and receiving, I've worked for companies in the past, that would do just about anything to please a customer. Spending $200.00 to get a $10.00 item in a customers hands, without the worries of weather delaying a plane, or some other unforseen...

Well, I really haven't had a "bad load" yet ... well, what a minute. I did take a load out of Huntington, IN going to Spencerville, OH, 67 miles total. Was paid $1.00/mile + FSC, but the problem was ... it weighed 3120#! Thank god it was only 67 miles. That's the best bad load I can come up...

I'm getting ready to purchase a laptop for my van, and I'd like to know what everyone else is using and what kinds of problems you've had. I'm looking real hard at a Panasonic ToughBook.

I make it a point, when I'm on the road, to speak with as many expediters as possible. I've gotten some good information about places to sit (truck stops, WalMart, etc...), places to eat, places not to eat, etc... I try to listen to what everyone has to say, digest that information, and store it...

As raceman said, never stop asking questions. Good luck and have fun!
