The difference in a van vs truck (the age old question..) is simply a question of complexity vs income. Van .. , lower costs, lower regulation, lower expence, lower income (yes 1500 miles a week is about right) Truck, higher initial costs, higher regulation, higher operating expence, but...

Merry Christmas everyone! Please take time to appreciate the ones close to you, and remember why we celebrate this season. Dreamer

> >Anyone up for locking this thread? Unfortunately, 'pee-bottles' are a reality of this business, like them, or hate them. I will leave this thread open, simply because I'd like to see what alternatives people have, that work for them. Thanks, Dreamer Forums Administrator

One of those "ew" subjects.....LOL Many will probably say don't use them, or have a porti-potty if you have room. The reality is, many drivers use them... It really depends, I think, on how big. For instance.. a small bottle, if you can carry it discreetly, (paper bag, etc)...can be poured...

RE: White Glove, Backstabbers, GOD's, Snitches, Ni This thread is now locked. I think you all know why.. Thanks for your participation. Dreamer Forums Administrator

It's a joke, that's sad, but mostly true... at the expense of some people that don't really want work, they want their hands held! You know the kind... 'it's all about me, 9-5 expediter, no weekends, give me everything availible in my truck, I run it my way, treat it like it's stolen, etc."...

Good post Ace. Bottom line, people need to ask themselves those questions, do their research, read the good and bad reports, then make a decision. Too many people jump in, then when it doesn't go how they plan, they blame whoever encouraged them!!! No one is holding your hand... or forcing...

I was going to delete this thread, but since everyone did such a good job of slapping this guy down for dredging up an old issue, I'll leave it! Thanks guys! Dreamer Forums Administrator

Goodguy, Unfortunately, no.. someone sent me the two readings years ago, both author unknown. Dreamer Forums Administrator

Normally this would be a topic for the Loading Dock, but due to the number of veterans we have on this site, I thought it appropriate to post here in the main forum. I want all our posters, and lurkers, to join us in thanking all the veterans we have here, for their service. We owe them a...

Terry, Thanks to you, and your fellow veterans, for your service. Dreamer

RE: I am no longer a ROOKIE one year ago today I t Congrats Broompilot.. you've already beaten 'the curve'. Been nice to have your viewpoints around! Newbies could learn a lot from your experiences... in my opinion.. you've laid it out honest and straight forward . Dreamer Forums...

Thanks Dave, I knew there was a thread somewhere, but I didn't see it. I know OOIDA is persuing a revamp, as stated in Landline this month... perhaps, as ATeam said, if enough people raise a fuss, the powers that be will see the error of these changes. Especially team drivers need to make the...

I also got mine Thursday 10/27 here in Ohio. Dreamer Forums Administrator

Well put Phil... thanks for finding those links.. And don't those 'before and after' pics tell the story better than words.. wow.... as you said.. the only thing standing is that Volvo cab. Dreamer

As many of you know, Glen Rice came on board as moderator over 2 years ago, and has been a great part of our team, as well as moderator of the Truck Topics forum. Due to health issues, including a needed surgery, as a result of his accident, that I'm sure we all remember from December of...

First off, I don't run to anyone's defence Teacel, unless they deserve it. BUT, as a matter of fact, Leo did nothing wrong. He locked the thread until it could be discussed, and now it has been unlocked. Our mods have authority to handle the 'little stuff' without taking a vote. Especially...

RE: Tony posted (everyone you talk to who doesn't know what driving is all about, thinks ANYONE - I MEAN ANYONE CAN DO IT, - little do they know!!!). >Remember, there are drivers for the love of it, and there >are those who do it because they can't do anything else, so >they try being a...
