Now I know who stole my eggnog .

Charging a FSC is in option . If the shipper isn't charged a FSC there is no need to try to show the contractor what the FSC should be . The purpose of a FSC is to allow a set rate to be contracted then allow a FSC adjustment so the shipper doesn't pay too much if fuel goes down or the...

But wouldn't that be an improvement ?

The real problem with the 6.0 was the head bolts . There are good aftermarket bolts that will cure the problem . "Head gasket failure became a common cause of repair. "Especially on the 6.0L, there was a design flaw-not enough head bolts. The head bolts pass through an aluminum carrier and...

Good thinking . In inclement conditions you don't have to just worry about the ability to control your vehicle . You have to worry about everybody else's ability to control their vehicle . You don't see many of them concerned about their tires .

Before I even read the article I thought "all they have to do is open the bus door .. " Yup , that did it .

Yup , I'm home . And out of eggnog so I guess it's o.k. to post again . The way they weather was Thursday and Friday home was a good place to be .

You know , I've seen this on several forums and so sympathy at all . Everybody's high fiving , laughing , and wanting to buy the guy that did it drinks . I'm sure Obama is the most unpopular president ever . It's really pathetic .

How about one out of 2 ? Catch you later .

I have to disagree . If I was a shipper being charged a FSC I would want to know how the charge was justified . Any bit of the FSC not given to the party buying fuel is an unjustified ripoff . As far as the nondisclosure statement goes I doubt it applies once the contractor terminates a contract .

Just ask admin why they won't allow them to post ads here . They've been ripping people off for over 5 years . In that amount of time I think I've seen two of their trucks on the road . Check this old thread out . http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/ask-recruiter/36430-midwest-expediting.html

So much for that link . Not surprising . The page you requested cannot be found.

Savvy way to operate but there's that "need" word again . That's a big problem in this industry . You should get what you are entitled to , not just what you need . Say the rate pays you $2.50 a mile . That's great . No need for a FSC . But is it right the shipper may have charged a $.30 a...

You'd better believe it would matter to the customer if they were aware of it . It's the contractors that establish the service with the customers . Customers pay a rate expecting the contractors to get the amount they are due . I knew of a carrier that changed their FSC structure a few years...

The cost of a reefer is a constant that figures in with calculating operating costs . The same could be said of a pallet jack , figuring its cost and how often it will have to be replaced . Fuel is a major expense and the cost fluctuates often . I agree with posters that say if the rate is...

Just post this link CSA Q&A | Trucks at Work Blog Thanks for the info . It took some searching . The blog was posted in March .

More carriers should leave the ATA altogether . The ATA's agenda is to benefit carriers with thousands of trucks and make it impossible for smaller carriers to compete . EOBR's are a good example . How many small carriers can bear that expense ?

And this writeup will be assigned points under CSA 2010.
