Thanks for the info.... I can understand, from a business aspect, that Larry takes over Safety but worry that will over load his plate and that either his duties or safety starts to suffer. Guess only time will tell but I am sure Larry will give it his best effort.:D IF, July was the best...

I missed the C. call on saturday and was wondering if anything new was discussed. Have they found a replacement for Bob? Number of units? giving us a raise?:eek: or at least some .80 and 1.05 again?

WHAT?? Are you going soft on me? Give up the compfort of the van? are you insane? Great tip tho for those getting soft. ;)

My thoughts EXACTLY!!!! Its like getting a new grill and your cooking ribs but didn't invite the neighbors. If you let the smell drift over there they will sooner or later come check it out then you won't have enough for everyone and everyone goes hungry again :(

Everyone has brought up great points about this subject. However kids, I hate to say it but all of this distracted driving is here to stay. Even if everything is made illegal people will still do it and almost impossible to enforce. Just another way to punish people after the fact is all it is...

First, I would like to welcome you to posting in the express-1 forum.:) Next, what do you drive? I am in a CV so if you are in a straight truck I won't be much help. But based on my experience if I were you I would head towards either St. Louis, or Kansas City, either one you will have moderate...

COMANDO!!!!:eek: :eek:

2007 E350 5.4L and I get 18-20 depending on load, terrain, and foot. I travel at 61-62mph. Any thing more and you start to decrease. Have ran at 70 a few times and I get barely 16mpg. My co-driver has a heavier foot then I do and now get around 17. She runs faster when I am sleeping yet she...

El Paso, TX. Won't make the expo. Have load in morning to Laredo.

He will be very hard to replace. In my opinion he had the hardest job at the company. If he called you or you called him it probably was not for something good. He had the liablilty of the company on his shoulders. I talked to him a grand total of 3 times (orientation, and picking up trip packs...

Eddie real close to you. At the J just south of Dillon in SC.

I have purposly stayed away from this subject but since you asked :p the new 19 is an improvement with out a dought. However, there could still be some improvements. I used to advocate for load counts but after lots of thought I can see why they don't want us to have it. Everyone would be...

I'M BAAAAAACK, had a great vacation.Batteries are fully charged and raren to go. On our way to Rome GA

Sitting in Laredo waiting to get unloaded then DHing to McAllen to pick up a load to take to MI. THEN, on vacation so won't be back on here till the 13th. Now I know this news to some of you will be heart breaking but keep your chin up and dry your eyes cause the 13th will be here sooner then...

Thank you turtle, this post has been most helpful. So, if I read this correctly the 2 times I hauled the paint I was NOT in violation because both times the weight was something like 600#, hence the under 1000# and then not considered HAZMAT. Now my friend on the other hand got lucky. I won't...

Leo, you are absolutly correct. Thank you.

You are not willing to advise yet all of your posts are giving advise. I specificly asked for advise for CV/Sprinters and after several posts from you you then you say you can't give advise. I'm confused :confused: so should I get the book or not?

Thank you, your information has been very helpful. So lets recap kiddies, don't start a thread that might help others, just get a book and keep your mouth shut.

No need for PM, I have nothing to hide, do you? Can't answer my questions from the previous post? So I guess I will ask it again but in simple terms. Why you be tinken dat I be not liken MJ mmkay? You say you don't want to get off topic but you have. There is nothing in your last post...

Thank you Cheri for the information on the HMCP but do they also cover NON-DOT regulated trucks? I also thought that maybe other drivers might get some useful information from this thread. My saftey department is top of the line, can't say for sure about my friends, but during orientation the...
