Twin Cities Gas Prices

Just checked in on current prices and it's around $55 a barrel. Gas futures dropped another .10 a gallon also. Around MN the lowest price is $1.81/Gallon. Diesel can't be too far behind with the decline. I personally never thought gas would be this cheap again. Even with the declines I doubt any...

Not 100% sure where I should put this so I thought I would try here first. Does anyone know the limitation on the amount of time I need between having back surgery and getting a DOT Card? Or is it just when ever I'm able to pass it? I had back surgery on 10/8, fusion L5/S1. I'm able to walk...

I've seen this term thrown around a few times so I decided to look it up - While there are many theoretical and practical differences among the various forms of Marxism, most forms of Marxism share these principles: * a belief that capitalism is based on the exploitation[3] of workers by...

When I was driving back in 05 I had a load down there. I dh'ed back to las cruces, nm and got a load out of el paso, tx that night. But I have gotten a load out of Tuscon, AZ twice also - depends on your carrier and where the loads are at.

My only problem with this is that the US won't enforce nothing against Canadian trucks. Not that I have anything against them but it will cut loads for us greatly, why hire a US company to bring good back and forth, just hire the cheaper Canadian company.

Hey you got the same birthday as me! Though I'm turning 25. It's been said but most carriers will give you a physical at orientation any way. At one point when I was about your age I had 5 dot cards, 1 from CA, 1 from AZ, 1 from OH, 2 from MN. If you had a class A license and want to go that...

Sadly no, though I did look at some very nice land for in the nw corner - like 170-200 acres for 100k with direct hwy access.

Hey now let's not forget my expediter retreat idea in KY, even if that was like 3 years ago.

Well to me it sounds like a firmware issue maybe that needs to be flashed - or wiring - or probe. I was troubleshooting, and working on a cooling cabinet a few weeks ago and what I did to help with the issue was this make a very detailed form on the operation of the unit - Taking temp from...

Got an interesting email the other day from EO saying that I was missed. So I thought I would drop a line and say hi. I'm really thinking about going back out trucking after my l5 fusion surgery - long story - but not sure. Has anyone ever drove with 2 big dogs? I've always had my one hound but...

What slow season? It's only slow if you make it! I started in January a few years ago and didn't stop for more than a few hours for a month.

Off topic but - I have a blue tick hound!!!

Make sure you count your days outs and WHERE. That alone can make it so you have ZERO taxes. Take the advice, get a CPA - they are worth it. On a side note, I would set up a business llc asap, 1099 the business, pay your self and team member very little and take a profit share at the end...

Well here in MN just got done with 2nd season, got my self a real nice doe - hunting is great.

Well in my case the contract I signed with my owner worked out both ways. It provided me legal ground to get what was owed but it also contained a statement that if I operated the truck illegally that I was to return the truck ASAP. Well he figured that sense my license was accutaly suspended...
