    Not your browser...was in it this morning under the 'old system' ...worked fine then this afternoon it switched and no luck also...I called FEDEX no one there could help. You call also make sure they know its not just one or two people...I can't do my IAC until they get it fixed.

    Jump start cables

    Almost....'BO' (10) is much more capable of jump starting your er' batterie(s) than 'RO' (16)...don't over think the concept :)

    Jump start cables

    Moose! Think of 10 as Bo Dereck and 16 as Rosie O'Donnell . Now ask yourself again...Which/what is better? And why?...Got it?

    Ok Everyone, LET ME HAVE IT! Poor it on hard!

    This has actually turned into a great Thread! It has prompted me to read the CSA points severity in its entirety: https://csa2010.fmcsa.dot.gov/Documents/SMSMethodology.pdf pages 49-88. I was suprised how a improperly aimed headlight could carry more points (6) (393.24(d)) then something like...

    Thank you, FedEx :-)

    Jim, just like any other company there is always some that are too lazy or unimformed to do their job properly. Unless they just changed the policy that day you can have it adjusted if Louisville was your other option as you indicated. Call your CC and refer to the run number that was the one...

Do you still have a slip at the Pelican Yacht Club?...If so I would be interested in making a deal...been on the waiting list for 2 years now:) Anyways the same stuff you buy at Marine west...

    Is it legal to shave a drivers miles?

    When I drove for a Fleet Owner, He told me how they shave the miles...one time they shorted him 200 miles so when he reached the number of miles they claimed, he stopped the truck, called them and said "Ok, I have run the miles you paid me for...are you going to send someone to pickup the...

    Disgusting appearance

    I wish the truckstop managers would do the same. On one occasion while fueling, some guy decided to empty his bladder in the fuel line and another (female) dumped her pee bucket at the passenger side pump. When I use to use the public restrooms (its been about a year since we installed a...

    Preferential Treatment for Expediter Services . . .

    We have twice come across ES Teams where they could not carry a "D" load even though it wasn't near the 13,000. weight, and on one ocassion we took their remaning cargo cross country at a good pay. When we bought our truck we were too heavy to be a "D" and were classified a "C". Our "C" truck...

    Comments From Dispatchers....

    Well these two noodles were probably an example of ones that would've slipped thru except for FECC taking appropiate action during orientation...BTW you don't like pasta? A better example might be broccoli...:)

    Comments From Dispatchers....

    I stand corrected on that. I do recall a couple that did not make it thru orientation...perhaps that was the reason. Hopefullly FECC will get more aggressive on their clean up. I'm sure the dispatchers get just as frustrated dealing with this class of people.

    Comments From Dispatchers....

    And you never saw the co driver?? "Why would FECC be willing to accept a truck and driver like the one described above if they would not find that same truck and driver fit to sign on to their own company. If they're not clean and neat enough to sign on to FECC, then they're not clean and...

    Tire Pressure/Rating and CSA...a little more involved

    After reviewing the CSA in the FDCC forum. I thought it might be useful to let readers aware that I had my tire pressures checked by DOT in Indiana. The following is an excerpt from the regulation; (h) Tire inflation pressure. (1) No motor vehicle shall be operated on a tire which has a...

    You are overlooking the obvious! The problem is simply that you forgot her birthday or anniversary. Just buy her a box of chocolates and a dozen roses...do or say something humiliating and everything will be just fine.:)

    How much does a sleeper cost?

    The only thing I could get out of him concerning his experience is "we learn to do a lot of things on the farm...you have to"...what a great guy! I am impressed with his 120" sleeper for so little $s.

    How much does a sleeper cost?

    The best one I have seen on the road was made by a couple who took two 60" Peterbilt sleepers and joined them together. It looks factory, but the owner said he did it at his farm. The sheet metal work convinced me he was formerly an A&P (Airframe & Powerplant) mechanic but he said he had no...

    Trouble Getting Loads ?

    I agree! "DD" is right! Take the Titanic for example the biggest / fastest luxury liner of its day...ah wait, never mind it sank...how about the "Tiger Tanks " during WWII from Germany... oh wait they were too large to manouver in the forest and used too much fuel...Germany lost major battles...
