    Walmart making up for Target! Let's help!

    Hey everyone, I usually don't post this kind of stuff here, but it really struck me wrong with Target banning the Salvation Army this year. I got this letter from the American Family Association yesterday, and asked Lawrence if it would be ok to post it here. I hope we all drop a few bucks...

    professional occupation or no?

    Being a professional has nothing to do with what your job title is, it's about how you DO that job. A slacker does what he has to to get buy, the bare minimum to keep himself from being fired. His attitude is bad, he can't be bothered with what he SHOULD be doing, just what he can get away...

    Things Someone told You That You Never Forgot

    When we'd argue, my Momma always told me, "Someday, when you have kids, you'll understand why! (or why not)".... I always thought "Yeah ..right..."... well now... my son is 15, and my daughter just turned 18, and ... I understand! And guess what, I'm just as over protective as she was, and...

    New Pete 335

    RE: New Pete 335 (and the new Coronado!) I'd have to agree Weave.. seems like after all that expense, they would have put polished aluminum wheels. Dreamer

    Cargo Van Outfitters ?

    I've wondered if one of these would work for expediting. They're called a 'Sportsmobile'.. and they're usually used for campers, or adventurer types, etc. They feature a counter balanced, lift up top with canvas sides. With it down, you have a standard roof line, therefore better mileage than...

    How long to keep Log Books?

    Finney, You do need those logs. They are the required proof if you use the per diem deduction. If you do not have a log book showing you were away from home that whole day, they will disallow the deduction. And as of this year, that is $41.00 per day... that adds up REAL quick. I have found...

    Kind of OT... but slick work truck...

    OK... I've always been a sucker for slick paint and polished aluminum/chrome etc... someone brought this truck to my attention, so of course I had to share it here! :+ I'm sure by now we've all seen those new Class 7 Pickup/Hot Shot style rigs for the ranches, etc... but this one really...

    Conway Now

    Sounds like you have an unusual deal there... most deals that I've heard of pay 60% and the DRIVER pays the fuel. There's the difference in your figures and theres... Seems to me like a fleet owner would not be making much with a van if he paid 60% PLUS fuel. Dreamer

    Confused about truck classifications

    When we say Class A or B, that is talking about the kind of license required. Tractor Trailors require a Class A license, while Straight Trucks require Class B. The other thing that might be confusing you is a Class 7 or Class 8 truck? (I'm guessing here)... Class 7's are usually medium duty...

    The Magic Words....

    X, I think I know what you mean.. what was said to us that made us WANT to take that run... Well, it's all about attitude. Even if it's a bad run, I always liked it if a dispatcher didnt' try to patronize me, or insult my intelligence. Don't give me this "You're the only truck".. "Well, it's...

    Winter time in my Cargo Van

    Sounds very similar to the set up a guy had I met a while back.. only his was one of those hitch mount cargo carriers... sat the generator on it and strapped it down. Sounds like your 'swing a way' mount would be more user friendly tho, and definately quicker to set up! Thanks for sharing your...
