    Expedite Solo in a Hino??

    Mr. Paladin, if your just trying to get back in the groove. In the latest issue of Expedite Now Panther advertises $1.00 + per loaded mile for Cargo Vans. A 1350 mile week gets you over $500.00 on the low end of a 60\40 split.

    Easy way to take off signs?

    Go to any paint store and get the paint scraper tool that takes a single edge razor blade. Just start at any corner it will peel off. I used soft nylon sponge and some kind of orange cleaner for the remaining glue. Good luck.

    Question for Experienced Owner/Operators

    Your question has been asked & answered many times over the years. The answer is in "Search" but I can't tell you how to do it.:rolleyes: P.S. most Cargo Van O\O will tell you to stay away.

    Married Couple Looking to get into the Expedite Business.

    If you go to Carrier Forums, you can read the posts from Fed Ex CC. See what the drivers (almost exclusively teams) are saying about their time on the road. Then if you wish you can contact the teams individually. I remember one lady who posted she loved being with her husband all the time. "I...

    how are CVs running lately?

    You can go to the carrier Forums and see who's posting. Your not allowed to post but you can PM anyone you want to ask how they are doing. Also you should ask (whether it will do any good is another question) a prospective Requiter what are your vans averaging for a six month period.

    Bottom Feeders!

    "Drive less...Make more..." is a wonderful sentiment. I would rather run for .90 CPM then sit and wait days on end for $1.10. IF you have a one ton ext Cargo van & it's paid for. You ought to be in good shape @ $.90 CPM. IF your carrier gets you 1500 paid miles per week, 21 days a month...

    Constituents Camaras and Cellphones Confiscated by LEO's

    "worthless pos politicians" I beg to differ. If you add up the salary of a Representative, Congressman, or Senator. Then add up the salaries of their staff and all the perks available to them and their staff. Cafeteria, gym, vehicles, benefits, paid travel. There fairly costly as opposed to...

    New Owner

    Granted I'm a little slow. That being said. I fail to see the big deal of Dead Head. How many people working 9-5, 8-4:30 get paid to get to work and back home again?. It's a cost of the business. Your sitting where it's slow and wont spend for fuel to get where it's busy? Makes no sense to me.

    Higher Down Payments

    You may want to clarify with OOIDA on what they do & do not finance. Back in April there is a post on the Fiance Forum page from Team Caffee that OOIDA would not finance a "Straight Truck"

    proof some people should not be allowed to have kids

    When I was growing up, car or truck the dash board was metal not padded plastic. Children rode standing up in the front seat no matter who was driving. Mom or Pop. Myself and my friends all seemed to survive. We rode on running boards or in pick up beds. IF we met a policeman (don't recall any...
