Thanks for the very useful information! Greatly appreciated

Have you had it diagnosed... have the electrical system jumped, and if it keeps running it's a electrical problem, if it quits its a mechanical problem. Can you take it to a repair shop or someone who deals in your brand, or someone you trust not to 'fix' what they think is wrong but really fix it.

oh wow we both hope she is fine, and extend our sympathy. There should be some recourse for such a mishap.

Just posting the following info....just recieved an automated phone call from FedExCC they are still looking for o/o's and drivers for MI. this is the number that called us 866-729-9789.

Everyone that runs at that rate................ they are saving for the breakdown that they are driving towards at a faster rate than others? No wonder rates went in the toilet. Im kinda in shock this industry needs another Hoffa someone who will shake all the feathers out of their heads.

Complete empathy to you and your entire family. Don't second guess yourselves, you did what you knew was best. Your faithful companion will always be at your side until you merry meet on the other side.

a decent first aid kit can probably be outfitted out of most of our homes. Fill in the cracks with some small purchases, and even out dated training is better than nothing. Just because your "ticket" expired doesn't mean the knowledge left your brain. If your NOT comfortable assisting on the...

There's 2 sides to every story, and while I empathize with you, and your plight, there are also owners who don't pay, have no common decency for their driver's comfort, and basically screw their drivers at every chance they get. Would be nice to hear the ex-drivers side.

Got this today in my email inbox. Just thought all you FedCC drivers, o/o might be interested that they are actively seeking to recruit, or re-recruit more drivers fromKinaitis, Eric [email protected] to dateTue, May 31, 2011 at 10:12 AM subjectFedEx Custom Critical Needs...

we echo everyone else. No need to be ashamed of your emotions. She looks like she was an amazing and true friend to the end.

We have Michelin SS on our tandem axle ST. Excellent mileage around 8 - 13 mpg depending on road conditions more so than weather, although we get better performance over all in cold weather. Hope this helps you. One downside to them though is replacing them if the need arises out on the road.

My point exactly. They didn't specify what they wanted their teams to accept, I just threw that out as a starting point. Thanks for clarifying it more.

Nice looking truck

You may seriously want to consider just biting the bullet and getting the passport. The enhanced drivers license to my humble understanding is only available to residents of a border State. I would far rather save myself the trouble and listen to what the USBP says over whatever any carrier will...

Arkansas truckers are trying to get everyone to not buy fuel in AR. They are complaining of a proposed fuel tax. I checked with the Ar gazette online and sure enough a bill has passed the Ar senate and is up for vote. A Five cent diesel fuel tax. Half percent or something cheap for gasoline...

So what is your rock bottom price you want the team to accept? You know i bet they could run all week long at 1.25 @ mile. But, then take out your cut, their cut, fuel, expenses, maintenance, incidentals, and the list is Im sure longer but these are off the top of my list.Sometimes less miles...

This could be why the FMCSA is getting involved ( or appear to be getting involved) there is NO set industry standard for something we all face and it matters not an iota if it is a large company, or a Mom & Pop company. We all get screwed loading and unloading. For those of us who run logs it...

I searched,and saw that there are O/O out here who have this transmission. How are your transmissions doing? Ours has almost 500,000 miles on it and we are heading in for servicing to keep ahead of whatever might happened somewhere,( usually 300 miles away from closest reputable service centre).

Canned for using a naughty word? Uhm, no comment other than I wonder who died and made them the ruler. Other than that we drive for LS, Why? Because they offer us freedom to come and go as we want, there really is no forced dispatch and it's a match made in heaven at least for us.

A day late, and a dollar short, it was for the card in the mail that got lost.... hey! Happy belated
