Tom - that avatar image is great!! (I'm still laughing).

This brings up an interesting point, and a topic that has been fairly close to home recently. I had been considering purchasing a couple of Llamas, until I realized that you can't eat them when you get tired of them. That fact alone immediately got them removed from the list of acceptable...

Terry, I'm sure the Coast Guard misses your search and rescue skills. Bravo Zulu.

I know it's nowhere close to Michigan, but I always got a little carried away at the chrome shop at Oak Grove, MO. When you can get a DQ blizzard AND shop for chrome at the same time... Man, I'm not sure life gets much better than that. They used to have some pretty good deals available as...

That transmission is computer controlled so it will max out your mileage for you... Mine was absolutely flawless. Even in heavy traffic you could almost CRAWL and the truck would stay smoothe and wouldn't hop at all. That trans is the closest thing to a no-brainer that I've ever worked with...

The general forum is a far better place to post this type of question. Recruiters do not make a habit of commenting on the other companies that we are in the market with. Also - do a search for all posts in the forums (fora) related to this company. Your will find the information that you seek...

Gator, Welcome to our world. This site is definitely the place to gather facts and compile information about a possible career in expediting. All the companies that sponsor this site have recruiters available to answer questions and help get you pointed in the right direction. Feel free to make...

We used to have some that we kept in a cabinet, but never got to eat off of it. It never made sense to me. Today I don't have any dishes around that I won't use. It just seems like a big waste if you ask me. Oops... sorry, wrong China.

Ricky, If you are planning on leasing your tractor to a company - you can usually get a group rate on your insurance through that company. If you call the recruiting departments of the companies that sponsor this site, they can give you an insurance quote over the phone based on the amount of...

If you place Alaska in place of Florida, that is an error of 3848 miles. You just can't recover from something like that...

Definitely go after your lost wages. I had an incident back in 2001 where I got hit while parked. The Insurance company representing the company who's truck hit me ended up paying me $500 for each day of down time that I incurred due to the incident. It was undeniably their fault. Get a letter...

Not all owners use contracts. It is hard to believe that today when you need to sign a contract for just about anything, that somebody would take over a 70,000 dollar piece of equipment on a handshake - but it happens every day. If I were in your shoes, I'd certainly make sure that I had a...

Dog, The best way to contact fleet owners is through the recruiting departments at the companies that sponsor this site. Just indicate to them that you are interested in driving for a fleet owner and they will point you in the right direction! With just a few phone calls you can make your...

I'm not trying to be a smart-alleck here, but the best book would be the owners manual for the specific vehicle. All maintenance schedules will be listed, and that is the best rule to follow. If you don't have the manual, you can generally purchase one from a dealer for a reasonable price. Best...

Thanks for an excellent post Leo! This is the kind of information that will help somebody keep some cash in their pocket. Print it and stickit on the dash!!

Earl, The way an owner pays his driver is not an area where a recruiter or a company can make comment. That arrangement is purely between owner and driver. The equipment is leased to the company, and the company pays the truck owner. That owner has the right to pay his drivers (subcontractors)...

JWG, If the truck has a sleeper and landing gear - and it is dock high, most companies would have some opportunities available for that type equipment. Calling the companies that sponsor this site is a great way to start your research. Best of Luck - Scott...

Our version of a "B" is a load not greater than 2 skids 48X48X48 (and) not over 2000 pounds. Dimensions that exceed either of these categories will bump the load into a "C" rate. I hope this helps - Scott http://www.expeditersonline.com/hotnews/images/scott_han_sig_file.jpg Express-1...

I am certain that you can find what your looking for if you post in the "Canadian Expediters" forum. It is a great source for this kind of info. Best of luck, - Scott
