The info your looking 4 is in prior posts on here. This question comes up almost every week and some of the GUYS i think get tired of answering the same questions weekly. So just do alittle research and you'll find out what you need 2 know. :)

Alot of people will have different views on this, Driving as a team will get you more MILES , but half of those extra miles will be yours. STR-8 truck comes with more exspences sometimes, plus log book and scales and of course the THRILL of a ****ED OFF patrol officer coming out...

Some drivers don't mind the DH , SOME won't dead head much at all. I M O it depends on what kind of LOAD OFFERS you get after D -H ing . Back in 06 there was a almost 6 month stretch that i DH ed about 1000 miles a week BUT picked up between 2200 to 2500 loaded miles a week at...

:confused: Wouldn't a wheres OVM map be similiar to a WHERES WALDO MAP ? Accept look 4 fancy shorts instead of funky HAT and RED and WHITE SHIRT ? ?

Easy access to, getting into and leaving without diffeculties. Plenty of Fuel or gas pumps, quick and curitous clerks at fuel desks. CLEAN showers and restrooms ( 1 of my main descision makers on possible layover locations ) PLENTY of parking spots oh YEAH good food helps 2 . LOL

:eek: TURNING SIGNALS LOL I don't think 75 % of the PUBLIC knows WHAT they are for.

Yes 355 in chicago is WISE, just watch OUT for the boys in BLUE sitting with their PORTABLE SCALES just past the TOLL BOOTHS. :eek:

You'll need 2 ADJUST u r sleep habits 2 your runs. If your used 2 bed at 9 pm. your going to have a problem RIGHT AWAY. Back in 2003 when i started i WAS used to being up till midnight or 1 pm. BUT i kept ICE WATER for drinking while driving cause i'm not big on coffee and i already...

:D NICE CATCH , Turtle must of been BRAIN FART while posting. LOL

Check out the SPRINTER 4 sale in the classifieds. 2008 , kind of wandering ( reason 4 sale ) . Looks ready 2 roll.

NOTHING like a couple feet of snow in IOWA or SOUTH DAKOTA to keep away those darn rattlers . LOL

I would agree with CHEF it depends on YOU. If you are a O/OP I'm saying yes and more in a cargo van if you stay out 3 to 4 weeks at a time. All i know is back in 2003 to 2005 each year I MORE THAN DOUBLED that in a straight truck AFTER TAXES AND exspenses. BUT YOU...

If i could go back to summer of 2003 and start over i would go with a medium size company or bigger. I started out with a 98 ford s/t 22 ft. box , was talking signing on with the cat, BUT answered an ad on here with a small company that was in need of more straight trucks to run out of...

:eek: Just a guess our tax dollars are supporting this jerk, because NOBODY is going to HIRE this MENTALLY disabled jerk.

Atlanta, Ga. RUSH HOUR traffic :D

Just wandering which companys would be interested in the one-ton chevy cut away van with 12 foot box and door opening of over 70 inches tall. Would be able to haul roughly 2,500lbs. and 12 feet long. Would have fold up out of the way sleeper with nice walk threw door to cab. Thanks P.S...

A few possible modifications maybe ? Maybe 2 help air flow,lower about 4 inches on bracket and on metal white box make about 4 tubes 3inches in size ( diam. ) two on each side of generator to help let AIR through. I 've been toying with different ideas but first have be able to buy a...

I would first check out the locals a little first :D . Then i would talk to local police 4 any suggestions ( quiet place 2 sleep ,good food, available showers ). I would just as soon talk to them at a decent hour, as have them banging on the van at 2:30 am .

I 'm sure Ovm knows the freight lanes on loads going back towards MINN. or IOWA when it comes time 2 go home. Back when i was still driving a str. truck 4 a small exp. company at least 1 or 2 times a month ( 2007 ) I'd get thursday loads to mpls. or bismark or waterloo and have a nice...

:) Yes putting in neutral with parking brake set is important. I also chock the tires .
