Hey! This is becoming a HABIT! lol ********* Godspeed to all of you out there on the highways and byways!

Oh, yeah! ROFL! This is a COOL thread! 1) Rent an expensive motel room, let your other half wallow in the bed while you go in to take a leisurely shower. Just about the time you get your head full of shampoo -- Ring! Ring!" 2) Another facet of the shower one: Get out your last shower...

i don't know how much you paid for your FL70, but we paid $84000 for ours. The Century Class, with more options than you can count, is only $94,900! AND it'll be worth something come trade-in time! Our's is only worth about $55K (that's a high quote, and it's a year 2000, with just over 100K...

Actually, folks, you should do yourselves a BIG favor -- make it a point to stop in at the Orlando Freightliner and test drive the Century Class tractor that Jay is converting into Expediter D Units. We dropped in today, and we're IN LOVE -- and not just with each other! :) LOL Seriously, it...

LAST EDITED ON Oct-01-00 AT 07:06PM (EDT)[p]YES! Thank you, LBT! Tonight, 2000 EDT! To access the chat room, simply click on the "live chat" button located below the "Expediters Online" header on any page, which will bring you directly into the chat room. When you reach the room, do not try...

The only thing i can think of is that with an LTL move, you're hauling LTL freight, at a highly discounted rate. The Expedite move -- are you talking about an MT (empty) move, here? -- probably pays 20 to 50 cents per mile, after the first 100 miles, which almost offsets your fuel costs. Since...

FINALLY! We're going to do a live chat, tonight at 2000 EDT! Hope to see you there! ********* Godspeed to all of you out there on the highways and byways!

i'm laughing! :) ********* Godspeed to all of you out there on the highways and byways!

This subject has come up on other forums that i read, and i thought it would be a good idea to post a Winter Checklist here, too. i emailed the author (Choclit Sunda) of this, and received permission to copy it here: ################################################################...

RE: Wendy i think you're right, Iris, about people shying away from the FedEx name. i have a friend that asked me this question: 'When you're going to send/mail something, and you want to spend the MOST money, who would you use?' Answer: FedEx. i don't believe that thought has escaped the...

i'm so sorry! i understand your predicament; however, you MUST look out for yourself! Folks, running illegal, speeding, all the things that a company almost forces you to do, are not to be tolerated -- by YOU! It's YOUR career on the line, here. That saying for drugs, 'Just Say NO!' fits...

A Lease/Purchase Plan is a good way for someone with less than stellar credit to own their own vehicle. An owner will offer a truck to a potential buyer/leasor (you), and expect that the leasor is going to take ALL responsibility for the financial considerations of the truck, including a...

Yes, RoadWarrior, LEA stands for Landstar Express America. You can do a search for "LEA" and "Landstar" to see what's happening with them. Best of luck to you! ********* Godspeed to all of you out there on the highways and byways!

This is a post i made a while ago, and recently received a request to re-post it, so here goes: In figuring your earnings, you might want to figure on 10,000 loaded miles per month for a team. Calculating 25% deadhead, that has you driving 12,500 miles per month. If you say that you will gross...

It's my understanding that Canada has access to FBI Criminal records, so ANYTHING that you've ever been arrested for is common knowledge for them. The "Pardon" that Rich referred to will cost $200 -- and i hope your writting hand is in good shape since they also require a LIFE HISTORY...

You may want to speak with B Unit drivers at the truckstops -- besides getting some good information, you'd also get to check out their vehicle. Be sure to ask what they would have done differently, as far as spec'ing the vehicle -- i would imagine that comfort during layovers is one of the...

i would highly recommend NOT buying a new business class truck. Look at used tractors, with "real" motors (lol), that can be converted into a straight truck. If you want the big sleeper, check out used day-cabs. There are already too many of the business class trucks available on the market...
