Hey Chef, if you ever get out west in the higher altitudes your heater might shut off from low oxygen. That happened to Ed when he was out in Washington, or maybe it was was Montana. With the low oxygen from the altitude the low O2 sensor shut the unit off. He also uses a 20 lb. tank and loves...

Why would anyone pay to go watch a sub-par, at best, football team? I can think of several college teams that would probably clean their clocks. I don't know who their owner is, but maybe it's time to spend some of that money and put a competitive team on the field, or sell it to someone who...

I don't know what your all complaining about. .70 cent/mile loads are common at Bolt Express and they INCLUDE the FSC in that .70 Talk about ripping off the drivers!!!!!! HHHHMMMMMM Can't figure out why their losing so many CV's. If you say anything to Brian or Scott about the cheap frieght...

might be an expeditor if your going broke. Sitting in your personal vechicle and can't remember where the door handle is, it's in a different place than in the truck. :)

Hey Chef, glad to hear your doing well, I don't know how your doing it, the way things are going, I'm lucky to average 8 loads a month!! :( Right now, as of 11/16, that's all I'm averaging, 2 loads a week. And IF we're lucky, only about 1200 loaded miles/week. Won't even talk about deadhead...

Sitting home this week-end (not by choice). Would rather be out there running!! After sitting in Tulsa for 5 days with nothing and all the company wants to do is move vans around empty, thought it was time to come home. Alot cheaper sitting here than it is out there somewhere waiting on...

welcome back morninstar, have been wondering where you've been. I think most any driver that has to run logs runs into that problem when they take a short "mini" as you call it. I don't think dispatchers think of the problem of the driver and the dreaded 14 hr. clock. Their only interest is...

I was taught a LONG time ago that you "up-shift" between 1900 and 2100, "down-shift" no lower than 1800. Just get out and practice, see what the truck likes. Sure, your going to grind once in awhile until you get to know what it likes .lol but before you know it, you won't even be watching...

who else do they have a fuel discount with??

I lost a load the other day simply because I had my dog with me in the van. We're talking about a 15 lb. miniature pinscher..wow, BIG DOG!!! I tried everything that I could think of to apease the shipper. First he said I couldn't take the 5 small boxes, totaling a whopping 150 lbs. because the...

Nice paint job, BUT, your not thinking of re-doing B-386 are ya?? LOL Oh boy, here we go!!! :) Now I really need to get Cindy thru orientation so she can drive, I'll be the one hiding in the back!! Hey Jack, is it all the pain meds or is this a flashback??? lol

anyone else 'sitting' this week-end?? We were in St. Louis Thurs. nite, ALL day Fri. waiting, waiting, waiting. Finally decided to just run back to the house, cheaper sitting home than it is on the road. Talked to dispatch and they said there were 6 vans in Memphis and 1 ahead of us in St...

They want the truck 'on-site' waiting while they count??? hhhhhmmmmmm. I guess it would depend on how long I'd been sitting and how much the load paid..

"Moses" likes to lay on his blanket between our seats. He can be sleeping up a storm and for some reason he'll wake up when we get near a city or town. Doesn't matter if it's day or night, he'll instantly wake up. I'll feel these little paws on my leg pulling at me to let me know he's awake and...

Jack, you'd be lost without Gracie and you know it!!! :)

We have a 1 1/2 yr. old minpin that goes along with us. He absolutely loves to ride and being by our side 24/7. I think I agree with the cremation aspect. I could never, ever just pick a spot somewhere and bury the little guy then leave. That would not be an option. We'd have him cremated and...

Snakes!?!? No thanks, I'm outta of there!!!

Morningstar, just think, it's only Tuesday!!! lol The week HAS to get better!! Hang in there!!
