    Announcing... Conan is my new burglar alarm for my

    Jan.1, 2005. I have decided to make my dog, Conan, my new alarm system for my truck. He has a loud bark which intimidates intruders and lot-lizards, though he'd eat anything you give him (unless it comes from the buffet). Formerly a guard dog in my yard, he was moved to my truck after digging up...

    Owner financing

    Hi Frank, How would the deductions go if I'm buying equipment with owner financing? My current truck is owned by someone still paying it off. I'm assuming I can't deduct that one cause he is. The second truck is owned outright. Thanx T-Hawk

    Do you see anything screwy here?

    I'm looking at this truck to buy. My wife and I noticed the wheels are an awful lot forward on the box. I read on another site that a longnose Pete on the front of his straight 8 made it so virtually nothing could go toward the front of the box because the front axle weight was maxed. Do you...

    Super D

    Well, my Super D is coming close to being reality. Now all I need is a pup trailer. I've done alot of searching, but could only find a couple that are to proper specs. If anyone can give me info on where else to search, I'd appreciate it. I need air ride, e-track, 28-36', and not more than 10...

    Canada Canadian runs are the way to go!

    For all you expeditors who are afraid of Canada...why? Did you hear the horror stories about customs being 5 hour wait? That doesn't happen anymore. It's rare that you even have to stop at customs. Shippers are usually more organized with their customs paperwork since they get charged if...

    Freightliner highway robbery!

    I was wondering if anyone had any dealings with Wolverine Freightliner West in Ypsilanti, MI. If so, how did yours go? Here's mine: Started out Friday when I took the truck in for a faulty reading on the coolant temp gauge along with a few other things which they neglected to fix the week...

    Fuel cards

    Has anyone tried to get a fuel card from a company like Wright Express? If so, do you find it worth having? Was it easy to get?

    Wee bit high on the price...

    I'm not trying to knock an advertiser here, only make an observation. Is it just me, or does Fyda seem to have higher prices than what's normal? Does their financing takes higher risk buyers; and, if so, is that the reason for their high prices? I don't know... maybe they have higher quality...

    Getting back into expediting

    I was talking to a guy who bought trucks to make winter money since he's in construction. He leased on with PTL out of Toledo and says he's done well for the year he's been with them. Do they have a good reputation? Also, this guy says one of his trucks did $3000 last week at the company's...

    Home plates

    Is the old practice of getting a P.O.box and plates in OK still used? Or did they do away with that? Where does Michigan rank as far as being expensive or not with commercial plates? Thanx

    SBA question

    Would anyone have a clue as to where I could get help writing a business plan for a small business loan? Since most expediting o/o's basically have the same idea about their business, I was wondering if there's either a template or someone I could hire to prepare one. Thanx in advance.
