WRONG!! It's down right EVIL!! Never mention such warm temps when so many are suffering...not nice according to Ms. Manners Ann Landers. So let me just say we are sitting in Miami Fl and plan to cruise down to Key West for Christmas the temp is well...ok and I don't think it rates a wind chill...

[COLOR="Black"][/COLORAnd the thread title "We don't like your kind" mis-characterizes Walmart's position. I have been to a Walmart in Sacramento where an RVer and a Van took up residence in the parking, one in Homestead Fl where there were so many trucks it look like a TA, smell and all. I know...

Can't agree on this one. Walmart is forced by local laws to not allow overnite parking. I remember in the early 90s when Walmart catered to the RV and OTRs. Unfortunately, some RV parks started complaining (Homestead Fl. being one) and for this and Im sure other reasons, local laws were enacted...

Unfortunatley, the mother will never endure the pain she imparted on her daughter. To a little child the love of the mother if paramount, the very reason for that childs being. Such betrayal of that love before her death is likley more painful than death itself. Another florida case was in...

We run elec. cord under the door to an inside plug. When needed, we "plug it in" to a dedicated outlet...not quite like a switch but I don't have to get out of bed. Then after I do my pre trip, I simply unplug and start her up...works every time. I couldn't quite justify a switch since I have...

My chain up tool was made in Thailand. I drape each chain to each outside tire and the chain-up tool does the rest, I don't even have to bend down. Start to finish is about 6 minutes. She is 5'1" weighs 118 lbs and loves to play in the snow...sure glad I married her.:cool:

The water in the toilet cassette was a bit cooler at 60F but all other tanks and pipes were as toasty warm as we were. Toilet water 60F? Frank, Frank Burns is that you?? This is me, Margaret Hoolihan!

PalletJack, check with SBA and look at direct dedicated contracts...there are many successful O/Os that have gone this route as we are too transitioning to. With SBA you can get advice and many more opportunities than just expedite and worrying about bidding on your next load. Yes you have more...

Yes, "By invitation only" is exactly what I was told...nothing more to it than that!!! I am an independent contractor, I am not related to any of the employees at FECC nor am I associated with certain select fleets that don't seem to be experiencing a slow down like the rest of us....

Another illustration to ponder; We heard of the BR project and called our recruiter and although we both have the creditials, capital and willingness and a perfect service record, we were told that the BRs were by invatation only. So it didn't matter how much of whatever you want to call it, we...

Rainx in the washer fluid and for the side-of-the road clean ups, I was an ice scrapper to remove the bulk of the baked on pest and then follow up with gunk windshield foam cleaner....looks show room after that and the ice scrapper makes it so much easier...;)

How about a UNIFIED voice. As I read thru fx wart and its sequel, I am impressed both by the pettiness of some issues and the conviction of the authors in all of them. I have been with the FED for 7 years total...4 at express and 3 at CC and agree CC has a lot of room to improve. However I was...

We have 2100+ on our #1 gen and 536 on our #2 with no major problems. Oil change consist of turning a valve to drain into a container and twist off the filter start to finish is about 2minutes...fuel and air filter just as easy with no tools required. We chose two Power Pac APUs rated at 5kw...

Check more into the company you plan to build your fleet with first. Ask questions like how many of the company employees/dispatchers have relatives with trucks running with them and if the company caters to any particular fleet owner. We didn't and later found out that many of the drivers/fleet...

Been there...done that. When we first started, the owner arranged for our orientataion, convinced us to change our hotel arrangements and began to micro manage us before we even began driving their truck. We were shown by them how to cheat the hotels, and observed them play a slip and fall scam...

ice, were you on an 'ETA' lock? we have passed over on a couple of loads in that area...found out we were on this eta lock and was never even offered the load we were locked on
