HI Thanks guys and gals.

HI I disagree.When you haul cheap freight you set a precedence.It will be assumed that you will haul the freight for that rate the next time.Also customers can only price shop for so long because of the nature of our business {JIT}.After awhile they will have to bite the bullet and pay a decent...

HI How can I get ahold of an actual person who can undo a major safety department error?I have tried callng them and QC'ing them with no luck.Does anybody have an email address for safety department?

HI I agree with flushing the system, the problem is the machine they use really does send all the band shavings through the valve body.You can flush the system without having this problem by draining the pan, putting it back on then remove the return line from the cooler.then start the truck...

HI Has anyone considered how eating in their truck every meal effects the truckstops.We are going to miss them when they are gone.No more parking,no more c stores,no more cb shops,no more tv rooms and no more showers.You will have to get a motel room just to take a shower.So if I'm parked in...

hi Might as well throw my 2 cents in here.Nagan told the people to evacuate.Some didn't get the warning and some just chose to ignore it.When the storm turned away from the city even the press was saying that New Orleans had dodged the bullet and people went to bed that night feeling good about...

Hi Does it pay by the mile or %?Whats the fuel surcharge?Any hazard pay?Are meals included or do I have to pack a lunch?Does it pay enough to retire to a nice ranch in northwestern US or Alberta?Does a QC work in outer space?How about cell phones?Do I get a really cool weapon?Can I take along a...

HI Since when is a driver suppose to be resonsible for fuel.Even on a 60/40 split most owner advance drivers some money.We aren't doing this to go broke, most of us got into this business to make money and better ourselves.Some people seem to be under the impression that we should be happy just...

Hi Im sticking around in hopes that things will get better.Im alot worst off now than when I started 10 years ago.But this has been my worst year of those 10 years.This industry is like a roller coaster.One minute your up and the next your down.Hopefully I hit bottom 3 months ago and now I...

Hi For some reason people no longer know how to merge.I don't know if its no longer taught in drivers ed on if they no longer have this on the test to get your license.Maybe they need to bring back that Disneys drivers ed movie again.The one with Goofy. I think they sould at least show a film...

Hi Yep those machines last a long time.Of coures they don't pay taxes or buy cars.Back in the 80's people fought against losing their jobs to the machines.Now we are suppose to welcome them with open arms.Go on welfare and let the goverment tell us what we can and can't do.Our money is the only...

HI I know there are loads coming out, but it seems that my carrier has cold feet when it comes to bidding on them.Like maybe they are afraid of the fines.Im not sure.The only thing I know for sure is that after Jan.2005 my return loads back to the US dropped severly.From 100% to below 50%.Which...

Hi Give it a couple more months Moot. First your normal but dispatch is odd. About a month later you start complaining to your family. About a month after that your family no longer talks to you because all you do is complain. So then you start talking to yourself. Then you start talking to...

HI Julia Child,Jack Danials and Ronald Reagan.Good food ,good whiskey and great conversation.

Hi Greg the way I understand it the carrier can follow the progress of the clearance through a US customs internet site.I think this is what the ACE program was suppose to do.I don't understand how it works.I have talked to drivers who work for other carriers and they have nothing but good...

HI I agree with the premium for going in,instead of .02 cut. There is an easy way to do PAPS and several CND carriers have adopted this system.The driver only has to remember their carriers fax #.Cause the only thing the driver does is fill out the inward cargo manifest and then he faxs it...

HI Since the truck has a lien against it through the bank, the owner can not lease the vehicle.Been there done that, bank threated to sue me.Banks take this kind of stuff very seriously. The owner is probably avoiding you because the bank has called him making threats.Or he called an attorney...

Hi I have to renew HM to keep CDL.It,s a van thing.My only other choice would be to rent a larger vehicle and completely retest.Hopefully my company sees the light and changes their rules.Legally I don't need a CDL to run a van,but the company requires it. What kills me is Canadians and...

HI It starts at 55,000lbs cost $100.00.Then its about $20.00 for every 1000lbs over the 55,000. Its IRS Form 2290. Hope that helps.

Hi IMHO Bush isn't the problem.He didn't even want to run when they ask him at the beginning of his fathers term.He was choosen by Carl Rowe and then groomed for the job.What we were showed during the campainges was just that a show.Our election system has some serious holes in it.A lot of...
