    Requirements for Fed Ex CC

    I talk to other FECC drivers all the time and I have never had one tell me how great the new dispatch system is. It seems that the only drivers for FECC who like the system are white glove drivers who are posting here. I dont know if white gloves walks between the raindrops or what. Having said...

These runs have so much deadhead on them...

    Requirements for Fed Ex CC

    FECC is getting out of expedite frieght and turning us all into LTL PnD units. If you want to run for 1 buck a mile total youll get all the miles you can handle. Not a day goes by where i dont turn down 4 to 20 loads that are ridiculously priced. Yesterday was a new record I turned down 27...

    Birth certificate

    Also compare the requirements for senate or house, the phrase citizen is used not natural born. If there is no difference between h two why he different phrasing! Natural born has nothing to do with location but parentage. This is why the 14th ammendment sais born in the US and subject to the...

    done with FedEx Custom Critical

    The smart way thing is being pushed by CARB. Any company that wants to run frieght in CA will eventually have to comply. I get letters from carb all the time cause I'm from CA. Right now it only applies to tractors and trailors. If you have a trailor you will have to add appropriate fuel saving...

    West Coast Expediting

    DO NOT relocate to southern california. The state is in a shambles. Their is little or no expediting in cali. The government has chased all the manurfactures out of the state. The DMV is a total nightmare, the Air Resources Board does evrything they can to quash business. The only reason I...

    About This Birth Certificate....

    When I said it has been this way for thousands of years I wasn't being fascitious. It actually has. At least as far back as Rome anyway. As for international law today children are considered citizcens of the country of their parents not their birth. In the case of split citicenship parents it...

    About This Birth Certificate....

    BTW, "Natural Born" has nothing to do with location of birth, but with parental citicenship. This is why John Mccaine was qualified though he was born outside th US. For thousands of years citicenship has been based on parentage NOT location. It is this way in the US today and in most...

    About This Birth Certificate....

    It doesn't matter where he was born. It matters whether or not he is "Natural Born" in compliance with constitutional requirements. By his own admission he is "Not". His father was an English citizen making Obama a dual citizen. Therefore he is not "Natural Born" he may be naturalised like many...

    The Hino 338

    This is an addendum - I wouldn't buy any truck with a Particulate Filter on it Hino or not. This is more government BS. Seriously, burning urine in a giant muffler is going to help the environment?

    The Hino 338

    550K on my 2007 hino 338. Still runs great. 1. Turbos are made by cummins, not by hino - I burned up 2 in the first 180k, the present one has been there since. Mechanic told me it was probably driver error. I corrected what he said and no problems since. A. Gradual acceleration...

    Blow by weigh station

    I've blown by a few, not out of malice but just daydreaming, twice in the last year once in CO and the other in CA, They didn't chase me. In Co I pulled over and waited a few minutes but they weren't paying attention I guess.

    CSA & the sixth amendment

    Greg, I realize that the Government tells US driving is a "privilege", however just because they so doesn't mean you should believe it. As for the commerce clause argument, you are right the commerce clause assigns the authority to regulate intrastate trade to the federal government...

    Dispatcher Ignorance

    Were getting so rich, somebody at my company suggested as a way to improve my bottom line to stop buying a cup of coffee at TA every morning, like the 30 bucks I might save in coffee expense is gonna make the difference in my 2k per month truck payment, or 400 buck diesel fuel fill up...

    FECC BAD safety practice

    So yesterday, while sitting in between, loads, I started getting a barrage of ridiculous load offers, they came about 1 every 15 minutes. This lasted until I finally accepted one. I was in Bloomington il. Anyway most of the load offers had at least 100 miles DH, and were B loads so the rates...
