Me,I would go S/T or T/T, I would avoid Sprinters and Vans.FedEx has a rider policy,and you could do ok being out of CT. I would honestly drive for a Fleet owner for a while before investing in a truck of any kind. Owning is the way to go,but I know a couple of people that changed there minds...

You didn't really ask a question. If your wanting to know how hard it is to get started,well it depends on if you have access to a truck or not to practice and then take your test. I don't know if there are any Expediter Carrier's that will qualify you with a learners permit or not,but I doubt...

It's not just flipping the burger,it's knowing when it's done.

I wonder if that Hot Dog is from Chicago ? The weather looks to be a little Chile ! Aw man you guys beat me to the Mustard!

All post are good info. Owning truck is where the money is,but you need to drive for someone else to learn the ropes because expediting is way different than anything you imagine. Remember after each drop you don't know when the next call is coming. The equipment makes a big difference,lift...

The answer to your questions depends on each of your situations.If you both are single and without a lot of bills to pay you would have a better chance. If one of you or both have family to support it will be a tough route. All expediters have slow times and bad weeks. You should be prepared to...

It makes sense for them to have to log for the same reason others have to log.When you are doing something for profit greed sets in and some will push the limits of safety in order to increase profits.

I think any Browser is better than IE. I use Fire Fox because of the speed and it is open source,so I trust it more. I like the other version of Fire Fox too,Pale Moon, it is also Mozilla,it just is a smaller version of Fire Fox. If you don't use parental controls and such it is actually better...

Oh yea,I have taken a load from home and the next load take me very near back home,but in Expediting that is very rare. If you want to pick the direction your gonna run in you might just find moss growing on your truck,in order to make money you mind has to be on running and not home. I have...

Doesn't matter what type of holster you have your instinct is to protect your self from the punches being thrown,not saying going for a gun is impossible but unlikely unless your attacker is withdrawing from the attack,you must remember we are talking seconds here.

An expediter rarely makes it home period. Most stay out three to six weeks,some only go home when a load gets them within 200 miles of home. As far as what to do,pretty much the same as at home,watch TV,shop,read a book,go out and eat, go to a movie,the road is home almost as much as home. Some...
