    Re:Tolls

    Re: Tolls I am so peeved right now. Made a huge response, only to be booted off by EO. Sorry for the delay. Apparently, my Canuck truck only likes breaking down and getting hit in the North Country. Regarding whether or not you're getting them added into your income on your 1099 or not...

    Re: Tolls They're not there, Moot, because he doesn't turn them in for reimbursement.

    Re: Tolls Fair enough. When I return from your home and native land (probably tomorrow), I'll show you why you're shortchanging yourself.

    Re:Tolls

    Re: Tolls I'm curious to know why you think that benefits you. This whole "drive less, make more/how much you run for" crap means nothing...... IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH YOU"RE KEEPING. Hope I wasn't unclear.

    Re:Tolls

    Re: Tolls Let me get this straight: You're telling him to NOT get reimbursement from his carrier, so that he can claim a full deduction? If I do understand this correctly, are you also one of those, um, 'professionals' that advocates buying a new truck every few years for more deductions via...

    Re:Tolls

    Re: Tolls If the carrier is giving you money for tolls, it IS income. If you take the tolled road, and incur the toll charge, that is an expense. If the carrier gives you $97.50 for tolls, and you pay $97.50 to drive on that tolled road, then there is no tax consequence. Last I checked, the...

    Do you know what to do? Heart Attack

    FWIW, the first guy was a safecracker. That's a life felony in Michigan. Second guy was a "tree jumper"...pen slang for pedophile, who had an indeterminate sentence. Guess someone higher than my pay grade decided it was time for him to go.

    Do you know what to do? Heart Attack

    Guess you'll have to forgive me, Moose, but I'll keep beating the CPR training 'drum' until I'm dead. Maybe you overlooked the part about my best friend being alive because of it. Aside from my wife, he is the most trustable person on this planet that I know. Here's a question: Do you know CPR?

    Steering wheel jumpy from new brakes?

    Jim- We got our Tru-balance sleeves at a Bosselman's. You only need three per wheel position. Money well spent. Now get back to work.......slacker.

    Do you know what to do? Heart Attack

    They AED's) are a lot more common than you think, but still not common enough. Most malls have them near their major entrances. We had CPR training in CDL school, by a woman who used to ride in a truck with her husband, and lost him at a Meijer distribution center that had no AED. This portion...

    FYDA reimbursements for repairs to used trucks

    That sucks, and is one heckuva statement. That alone scares the bajeezus out of the Puerto Rican and I. You can think you can cashflow nicely based on previous income levels, but go buy a new truck with a payment to go with, and downtime can literally destroy your business. Think we'll keep...

    About LRT Expedite

    Just for the sake of discussion, I'm wondering how you know that. I don't know anything to the contrary, but am just curious how you know what's in his heart or head.

    About LRT Expedite

    It's got to be certified as a class action, and that's not as easy as it sounds. Again, I'm guessing an exercise in futility, and again, I'm not a lawyer.
