    Microsoft Streets and Trips?

    You guys/gals are a joke. I use the voice command and when I do look at the screen I make sure I do it when it is safe. I am 45 years old and have been driving since I was 14 and have NEVER had an accident. Do you talk on the phone while driving? text?( I certainly hope not) take a DRINK of...

    Microsoft Streets and Trips?

    As a van solo/team I use nothing but S&T. I have several pretriped runs canned for common runs. Also a map for every flying J so I can get my free showers. I set my Lap Top on a cooler sitting between the front seats with a nonslip matt under it. I LOVE the bigger screen. The dependablilty is...

    to whom it may concern

    Has there been an uptick? Couldn't tell as to I am now a team. Wasn't sure it this was normal or just the joys of being a team.

    Quarterly Call

    I understand what you are saying but not sure where you got the 5+4 from. If there are 3 cv's and 3 spr's I can't be more than 6th out, can I?:confused::p But you guys as sprinters would also like to know what out you are amungst the CV's I would think. So if I am 2nd amungst CV's and...

    Obama gets standing ovation!

    This thread is typical as to why I don't visit too often anymore. Everyone knows, I think, my stand on politics. At one point I got too involved and opinionated about things and have come to the conclusion that no matter what is said or posted or pasted or whatever there is less chance of...

    Why does the IQ average of this site suddenly drop every time you post something?

    ohio raises speed limt july 1 THIS year

    Going to miss the "Passive Tailgating" I do in Ohio. Used to get 150ft behind a semi going 60-62 and I could run all day and get over 20mpg. :rolleyes:

    Quarterly Call

    Anyone else listen to the call on saturday? Was pleased to hear the numbers on Auto loads we have had. Was pleased we are still showing a profit even if it is not as large as it once was. The item that discouraged me the most was in regards to the Mac-19. I do not agree that a CV can not see...

    Coping?

    Great advice Eddie, I had also started to impliment something along the same lines.

    Coping?

    Much better, but still not perfect. With the increase in search area it is hard tell directions. Had another driver yesterday tell me that he was 4th out in buchanan so he did a search for Grand Rapids and he would have been second out. He "assumed" some of the ones he was now picking up...

    Driving Etiquitte

    For the most part I agree with most of these posts. In the middle of the night I will do like turtle suggested and run in the left lane if need be but this was in the day traffic with more cars and of course they have to go 75 so that was not an option. As stated in the opening I only had a...

    Driving Etiquitte

    Have I missed something or did I just run into the wrong crowd today? I was driving northbound on I-77 today thru WV. Speed limit is 70mph. Not sure what the minimum is but prolly 45 or 55mph. Anyway, I had my cruise set at 62 just like always (thats the sweet spot) and as most of you know...

    Attitude is everything . . .

    But isn't this hole thread a contradition in terms? This thread was started by someone griping about others griping? I am all about peace, love, and harmony but it is also our constitutional right to speak our minds and if we are not happy that is when people do the most talking. An old...

    Which run would you take?

    You take the $90...... take out his kneecaps....... and get $30 more from him. :eek:

    Which run would you take?

    My answer was to take load B. Everyone put up some good arguements for both sides as I did in a matter of 30 seconds in my head while I was on the phone. I did not want to be like Doug and lose both so I had to make a decision on the fly. The two biggest factors that made me go with B were...

    A New Story With New Writers, Please!!

    Inka and Doug here giggling in the bushes. With that came out all the small people and they start singing "we represent... the lolly pop guild" Inka turns to Doug and says "I don't think we're in GA anymore" Just then.....
