Most of my time is spent driving. I generate the invoice for each job within minutes of completing the work. All paperwork gets scanned and emailed/faxed along with the bill. As soon as I know which direction I'm heading I just have to open my web browser to a preset group of tabs with various...

Allow me to clarify my statement. I am beholden to no one. By this, I mean that I am not obligated to run any particular load. If somebody calls me and I'm not within a reasonable range, or under another load, then I can't very well run it, can I? Since you are leased to Fedex, you cannot...

There is going to be a whole lot of new action in Kansas in the next few years. fired at you from my Droideka

I think you mean "remuneration." And no, I'm not obliged to do anything for anyone. fired at you from my Droideka

I don't sit. I move. A few hours is one thing, but days on end at a truck stop? Not me. fired at you from my Droideka

Correct me please if I'm wrong here.... didn't the earlier sprinters have a 5 cylinder motor whereas the newer models have a 6 cylinder? fired at you from my Droideka

Here's one from the other side of the pond. Funny thing.... the owner of the Wildcat is Japanese and the Zero's owner is American. Go figure. fired at you from my Droideka

That's a fully restored and functional Grumman P4f Wildcat btw :cool: fired at you from my Droideka

Without bothering to read this entire thread, I will just add this tidbit: Over the years I have recruited or hired literally hundreds of drivers, maybe even a thousand. Let's face facts here, most drivers are not what you might call geniuses. The majority of them tend to hear what they want to...

I have a lot of trouble believing things like this. Way too many variables involved. fired at you from my Droideka

Ridiculous. Have you ever received an email forwarded to your address with other email addresses attached to it? Or sent directly to you by a known source and also cc'd to others? Now your email address is exposed to everything each of those people has on their computers. You said the address...

Whatever your duty status is at 2am on Sunday will carry forward an extra hour. Make a line straight down at 2am and note "DST" or whatever you have space for. Be sure to do the math correctly in the right column, there are only 23 hours on Sunday. fired at you from my Droideka

Great Feb here. Not good, but great. March hasn't been so great thus far. fired at you from my Droideka

Opinions + sour grapes = see above. fired at you from my Droideka

Not sure about GM vans, but my Super Duty Ford has braking power to spare. My axles are rated well in excess of the registered GVWR. My wheel bearings seem none the worse for wear every time I've repacked them with fresh grease. I understand your concerns with safety and I have taken all...

I really don't see the issue here. My van can scale 3516 legal all without the spring upgrade. I installed them along with steering stabilizers and sway bars front and rear so I could do it comfortably. 4000 is technically over the limit but for short trips I will even go 4500 without breaking a...
