Got myself a rare Saturday run, Milwaukie to Dallas, 1000 miles to save my week from being decent to great. I was just walking in to Arby's with my head hanging down thinking I am done for the week and missed out on reaching my goal of surpassing 1500 miles for the week.

props to you for taking the load, being new and adventurous, I'd have probably done the same thing. I would recommend taking a 2 hr nap though, I think you would be much more restedand prepared to drive out of the rain storm that precedes the hurricanewith a bit of rest. I know when I do...

Curious what would happen if tomorrow morning you find out they can't take delivery. I guess with it being the weekend, its not the end of the world. But are you basically stuck with the load until they can take delivery?

Back on topic. I think its cool that you believe in what you are posting about and have actually done stuff to support your beliefs. I use to be more active in government & elections when I was younger but I have different interests now for my spare time. I'm curious though, when you did...

EO is really entertaining. I think you need to take rants posted on an forum called soapbox a little less seriously. Your post reminds me of this: I find it entertaining that you judge people that you have never met by some posts on an internet forum that is about ranting. It...

Unfortunately I think its probably 3 years away before there is enough of them to make it worthwhile. But if you can access the 1300 snap locations, then it would be a good deal (at least for those of us in a van). Currently, there are 21 at the TA's and the plan is to add 10 at the Pilots...

Does anyone else wonder aimless through grocery stores hoping that this store will magically have something appeal to you?

The search for a truck feature is really cool. Man is the van market ever saturated. Just curious, how many trucks in total do you guys have running for you?

Thanks A-Team, very informative post. I imagine it would be standard to dh out of the area as well.

Paladin921, I don't know who I mean I don't know the company, I just read about them in that thread I talked about but I'm pretty sure they advertise here and are on the advertiser list wherever that is. Sorry I am on a phone so I can't search & link it for you. As for the sprinter vs diesel...

AMonger, Tennesseeahawk You can sit there and try to call me complacent but tell mewhat exactlyare you doing that is productive to prevent things like the Patriot Act stripping people of their rights? You can pretend to be all high and mighty and fighting the fight but in reality, I highly...

. What a lovely nam Thank the Patriot Act. Isn't it such a befitting name? Personally I could care less if big brother is watching. It wouldn't bother me if all my calls were recorded. Nobody is going to abuse it to come after lowly law abiding me. Why not hold people accountable...

Bruno, Greg won't be fighting against cheap freight rates, according to him, he's going after cheap freight. Rrad the bottom feeders thread to see his pro cheap freight stance.

Yea but your putting downward pressure on those 3 load prices which affect the overall avg price. That is going to affect your single load rates. I imagine a majority of the time you are carrying 1 load, so you might be doing more harm to yourself in the long run. Now think about you...

How has this traditionally affected the expedite market? I haven't been around long enough to ever witness a natural disaster.

As for the 2007 Sprinter, my only advice is to do a tonne of more research about that model year. My company has 2 of them and they say they've been nothing but headaches. I think it's partially their fault but that's another story. I don't hang around T/S so I don't talk to many other...

Another option for you to explore is Expedited Services, there is a big thread about them moving 30 of their trucks from Express 1 to FedCC. Alot of the members who post here that have never worked for them think they don't pay enough but all of their company drivers seem to really respect the...

99% of the time when that type of police brutality happens, the person it happened to, did something wrong, I'm not saying they eere in the wrong completely or they deserved it but they likely provoked it. I don't really care if that type of thing happens, LEO's are human and prone to error...

What mess are we in that you are talking about?

That might explain why he's never had a problem claiming $50.
