Oh Yeah,,Those who play must PAY..

Sounds high to me.I replaced shocks on a FL70 which weighs somewhat more than your B van for a lot less. Do I have a lifetime warranty? Don't know,what is the lifetime of a shock absorber?. Prof I wpould check with an independent shop or possibly Midas even though they sure know how to rip you off.

Is it legal to change the speedometer and do you have to set the odometer to the miles that are actually on the truck?

Very well said,but Expediting is a different ball game. Expediters and Expediting Companies do not have for the most part dedicated trips that allow for scheduled time home. Expediting involves emergency freight shipments,someone once said we are the ambulance of the freight industry. Everyone...

You should have your Bill of Lading,your logbook, your registration and insurance plus if you are a D or E unit your State IRP apportioned registration. Also of course your D license and MedicaL Card. As far as landing gear goes,I generally check the dock personel to see if they are going to...

Wombatt, try to make it tho the Expo at the end of July in Wilmington Ohio. Many years ago I worked with some Aussies,they were great mates and a lot of fun to be with.

Sounds good to me,maybe they have a Mobile setup that they can cook the ribs etc right on the premises. Terry won't mind a $500 lunch bill.

If possible go to the Expo. Lots of fun and you can put faces to names. I have to commend Lawrence for his dedication that he and his wife and staff have put forward over the years to make EO the great site that it is. Lawrence started this site and invested on his own (with 2 small children)...

I disagree with my friend DaveKC. It is my opinion that a DOT Officer needs PROBABLE cause before they can search your truck. They can look at your cargo to make sure it is loaded and secured properly but to go into the cab and sleeper they need a bonafide reason. To make your partner leave the...

Yeah,nothing like it when you walk into that motel office and that wonderful smell of Curry overwelms you.

Far be it from me to contadict Greg and others but today I killed some time at a local libary waiting on a truck A/C repair. I read through the business section of USA Today and the Wall St Journal and not one word was printed about Ford moving all those jobs to Mexico. The only Ford item was...

I am not a west coaster but if you are willing to drive south on I5 to exit 51,which is the town of Oceanside. There is a state park on the beach there. However 10 more miles down I 5 to exit 41 will take to to the town of Encintas. Get off the Interstate,head west,cross over Hwy1 and there...

There are Trees and there are Trees. Be careful as to which one you park under. Some trees such as Oaks have been known to topple over for no reason. So if like the Old Prof you are having some bad luck be carefull out there. Does Michigan have any healthy trees below Traves City??

Both Tri State and Bolt are well established companies and should keep you running with decent revenue.

I heard him describing the Book on the Neal Boortz radio show about 10 days ago. It was a good interview and it was nice to hear a major TV celeberity telling the truth.

RE: Looking for companies that don't require a Haz A Haz/mat endorsement on your CDL is not that difficult to obtain.You do need to study the manual and know the answers on your test. It is a selling point to an owner that you may want to drive for. Running a van the only Haz/mat loads you...

I would say the Expediting industry has grown faster then the overall economy. These days with high FSC's ,traffic managers are probably looking at consolidating shipments that may have shipped as a single expedite shipment. I would keep your costs as low as possible,don't rush out to buy that...

Parking under a tree could block your Q/comm signal so you might be under that tree for months.:+ :+

But if a DOT guy wanted to check your recap you and him would have to to the mens room and he would stand behind you to look into the mirror.

It's a good idea to invest about $200 for a 1 million dollar blanket insurance policy. Especially in expediting where we are usually under the gun to be somewhere at a set time and you are trying to find an address in the rain at 0500.
