A great way to make some extra cash.

It's not ruining a good thing just to do something. Any move from one company to another is something that should be considered carefully. When a business owner sees an opportunity to improve business or their life then they take that risk. It's no different than taking the risk of moving from a...

What type of vehicle are you driving?

Look for anywhere that the wires are zip tied together or in a loop with wire conduit on it. The wires will rub on the conduit and continue to wear and corrode until they break in those spots.

Some people are fine settling in at a company and never going after more or lack the skills to do it. There are other people that want more and have the skills to accomplish it. Everyone needs to make the choice that works for them and their abilities.

How long were you at Landstar?

I don't see it having much of an impact if any at all on trucking. Transfix was setup with a bunch of hypothetical scenarios that do not apply at all in the real world so it will be worthless. This other app has some potential if it is run correctly but they will probably turn it into Uship...

They aren't there to represent all of the citizens but they do represent the majority that voted them in. They work with multiple legislators from different states. It is much easier to push agendas on a state level in hopes that it spreads. Absolutely not, but we are discussing an...

I noticed that you used fiberglass insulation. Was there a reason you used that over foam?

They made it look like a Republican conspiracy rather than something that is done every 10 years after the census. Another is when they brought up ALEC saying: "If there was a corporate organization that drafted laws and then passed them on to legislators to implement, wouldn't you think the...

I would avoid doing that since you are not familiar with expediting or with setting up or running that business model. That's a good way to have a big problem and lose everything you own if you don't set things up correctly. Put the van up for sale and start a home based business with the money.

It seems like a hybrid silicon blade could help with the life span.

I think a large segment of our population gets their news from the headlines of their choice of homepage, like Yahoo. I doubt that they even have the desire to watch their local and national news for an hour. I agree, it is a very sad comment on our society.

If you know spending $100k on a truck is bad judgement then the simple answer is not to spend that much. You have to buy a truck that works for your business plan.

I look at things like this in the opposite direction. Instead of thinking that vans want too much I say that ST and TT are running too cheap.

Happy Birthday

Sounds like an exciting new adventure. Are you able to book your own loads?

Re: Heads Up about another company.... "Expediting Online" The sheriff can act as a collector for small claims court judgements. This case of the sheriffs helping collect a judgement was in the news awhile ago...

Do you really expect the local news to cover all this stuff in depth? In half an hour? All of that stuff is discussed and covered online or on the 24 hour news channels. There isn't enough time to go in depth on OTA basic channels. The half hour news shows cover what plays to the masses and go...

All Types has a bad image but the reality is that they have provided plenty of important experience for many people in this industry. Their former drivers have gained valuable experience in how to handle not being paid, how to file taxes after you don't get paid, filing a lawsuit, and finally...
