Limit Truck Speed: Hell YEAH. I have driven big trucks and straight trucks I have seen plenty of accidents out there on the road. All of the accidents I have witnessed have been the fault of the driver. I once saw four semis smacked into each on the forty with the lead semi drove up on top of...

I finally have time to close out this post. Needless to say when I put up this message I was pretty frustrated, with the whole ordeal of buying a truck. My truck was delivered in late Sept. I went through orientatation with FECC and they had a load on us as soon as we punched "In Service" and...

burning a gallon of oil in 2k miles should be obvious in your exhuast smell or color. If your exhaust is bluish white or smells like oil, you need a rebuild if not you probly have a leak.

It is sad to see how eager you all are to have your constitutional rights crapped on. What is more fundametal to the USA's founding than the right to defend your self? This countries going down the toilet - from illegal immigration, to perverts in our classroms, and our god given rights being...

I have heard that it can be against the law to keep a handgun in your sleeper, however I was told that it is perfectly legal to carry a shotgun. So what's the deal do you guys carry guns or have liberals destroyed this industrie too. Incidently during the Rodney King riots in LA, I was working...

I talked to Rush and they came in 8K less than Churney. I don't think I want to wait another 60 days - I need a truck. If Churneys doesn't come through I think I'm just going to buy a Sterling. The toyota financing is nice but if you can't get a truck built in a timly manner so what. My truck...

Well it's past 60 days since I ordered my truck. Yeah it's still not done but should be soon. In order to speed up the proccess we had the paperwork done in advance(this way we can plate the truck as soon as we pick it up) Anyway the price on the paperwork was wrong. Making the paperwork I was...

When you have to go you have to go. So heres an idea for you who don't like whizzing in the weeds. I occasionally use my small "butt" sized trash can as a crapper. All you need is Plenty of trash-can liners and some kitty litter. Once you've finished your bussiness, just tie up the bag and...

I picked up Toosie Rolls once in Chicago. When I got the run I Great I'm Going to see how its Done. What I saw was a dirty nasty candy factory with dirty nasty railroad corn syrup cars going into the middle of it, it was a drury nasty place right out of a Tim Burton movie.

RE: Waiting on Hino I'll keep you guys posted, the truck should be ready by Monday. I hope it is because I don't want to have "To go to the matresses" with them. Of course if they pull off a customer service cou, I'll let you guys know. PS - They quoted me 5.65% on the rate from Toyota. I...

RE: Waiting on Hino I shopped the truck at other dealers, The reason I decided on Churneys was they told me they could get the truck by the first week of august. So since they claimed they could do it quicker I opted not to grind them on the price, Timlyness is what I wanted more than price...

I ordered a Hino from Churneys, I think I was overcharged by the tune of about 10k, however I am mostly concerned about the fact that the truck was promissed for delivery the 1rst week of August and as of today, it still isn't ready. Now I'm stuck because they have my deposit and are in another...

Waiting on Hino I ordered a Hino from Churneys, I think I got ripped off by the tune of about 10k, however I am mostly concerned about the fact that the truck was promissed for delivery the 1rst week of August and as of today, it still isn't ready. Has anyone else had problems with churneys...

I am in the proccess of purchasing a truck in Indianna which I am going to lease onto FedEx CC, I need to get a base plate in CA. The DMV is telling me we need to pay CA sales tax which will be another 8k. All the dealers I talk to tell me if you lease onto a 48 state carrier NO sales tax is...

If you ever have a problem on a military base, you address your grievance to the base commander or executive officer. They are typically very conscious of the way civilians are treated on base and if you have a legitimate complaint the base CO will put his polished boot into some A**. By the...

Just curious to hear from Hino owners about there experiences with thier trucks. I am considering getting one as a starter truck. FECC told me that they have a few Hino's in thier fleet and that thier OO's are pretty happy with them. The various non-hino dealers I've talked to about putting...

The country is at full employment right now, the trucking industry is better than 10% undermanned, even the new chairmen of the fed mentioned to congress the lack of qualified CDL drivers, so my point is if you want to hire people you better pay them enough to stay competitive. Lets face it, I...

I just heard all new "E" units will be paid by the mile instead of by %. Change in any industry makes me a little nervous especially when that change generally works out to screw employees or sub-contractors. Anyone being paid the mile rate for an "E" unit at FED_EX and has the changed raised...

Fuel prices are high becuase the LIBS for more than 20 years have been legislating american crude production and refining out of bussiness. Our country has the best oil reserves in the world but we can't drill them because the conservatives don't have the guts to tell green peace to stuff it...

Searching for a good used tractor. I have been told Werner is a good place to get a decent used truck that has been maintained well. I talked to one of thier sales guys and he said they are easy to get financed since they use multiple sources, he also told me that with 5k down and a letter of...
