    Greatest City to visit?

    Beaufort, SC for us. In particular it would be Fripp Island. When you stand on the end of Fripp Island you can look across Port Royal Sound and see Hilton Head Island. No commercial buildings and the deer walk right up to your car. It is a gated community and very, very peaceful. The beach is...

    Cargo vans scaling in Michigan

    Maybe you could scan and post a copy of the actual charges to dispel any suspicions of wrong doing on your part. I heard of a cargo van driver giving the KY scalehouse the one finger salute not thinking they may have been looking out with binoculars. Ya think they didn't stop him futher down...

    This may be worth the effort

    There we go again with another buzz word from the liberal media. Oh my, lions and tigers and bears, uh, and windfall profits too! NOT! The oil speculators are making extremely high profits at this time, but that is what a free market society is all about. As long as the demand stays strong...

    Bookkeeping

    Go to your local office supply store and buy yourself a Dome Weekly Bookkeeping Record. It will cost you less than $6.00. On the average, it takes about 30 minutes to read through the instructions and figure out the format. Make your entries weekly and after about the third week you will be a...

    This may be worth the effort

    I know this might really come as a shock to you, but oil companies do not underwrite credit cards. Although Exxon, Shell, BP, Pilot, FlyingJ, Marathon, etc may have their name on the card, they are NOT banks or lending institutions. Here is a copy of the Exxon disclosure: NOTICE TO BUYER: You...

    Insurance

    I'm a little guy, but nobody cheats me. Many years ago I stop whining about how unfair things seemed to be. Gee, my father was right, "Life isn't fair." Then he would say, "So get over it and make something out of yourself." Of course life isn't fair! Who ever said it was going to be fair...

    Sprinter Killer

    From what I am hearing at engineering the van will be released in the U.S. market with all of the necessary modifications to make it compete directly with the Sprinter, Ford's 350 and GM's 3500 series. Engine options, capacity options, handling options, etc.... I simply posted what is...

    Sprinter Killer

    Yes, they are speaking directly to HiAce owners in their current market and with US expediters too. The Sprinter was not designed for commercial grade use! That's why it has such an underpowered engine. It was originally designed as a people carrier and an RV unit for the European market...

    INFO ON DUI

    Thank God you are retired! You forget to renew your license, that's a mistake! Nobody dies! Get a clue. You get behind the wheel of any (ANY, ANY, ANY) motor vehicle and you are intoxicated now that's a crime. Why? The potential for killing someone else is great than you walking around drunk...

    Where Are Van Drivers

    If the Tractor Trailer side is short some 20,000 drivers then some of that freight has to spill over to B, C, and D units. Moreover, there are many deliveries where a C or D unit could not be sent. And the dock high issue does have some impact, but with many companies tightening their belts a...

    Sprinter Killer

    Actually Toyota did not have the Previa in 1988, but we understand what you mean. I traded in countless Toyota cars and trucks with over 400,000 on the speedo. Stop by the Voss Toyota Store in Beavercreek, OH and talk to Jim the Service manager. He owns a Tercel Wagon with 415,000 on the...

    Sprinter Killer

    Well I am happy to see that there are folks who do a little research from time to time. Yes, it is a Toyota HiAce, but it is not the exact model that will be sold in here. The expediter version will have the proper modifications completed before it is released here in the U.S. Toyota is...

    Sprinter Killer

    I am not at liberty to release all of the information at this time but I can provide periodic updates. Satellite Navigation Audio System (including 4-in-Dash MP3 Compatible CD Changer & Radio)* Map reading will fast become a forgotten art (or hassle) once you experience the technological...

    Isn't it beautiful? Better yet, you are looking at a zero defect vehicle.

    INFO ON DUI

    Negative posts? Ah yes, the liberal mindset. If the truth hits somebody where they live we are supposed to simply roll over and look the other way; hence, condoning lawless and dangerous behavior. We should jump for joy that a DWI/DUI driver is not going to be on the road! Hey, my life, my...

    Overweight Penalties

    If I had a truck that scaled 17000 lbs empty with a GVWR of 25950 and the shipper loads my truck with freight that their BOL indicates a total weight of 8,000 lbs, but it is actually 9,000 lbs and I cross a scale only to get pulled off the road because I am at 26.000 lbs loaded...who gets fined...

    "Truism"

    RE: Science? Read "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair. It talks about the food processing industry back in the 20's. Same thing we are hearing today about contaminents in the food chain and we are still here. Again, "No new thing under the sun!" PS. A river caught on fire in Akron, OH back in...

    ANGELS IN MY MIRRORS

    As with all types of employment there are some negative aspects. I miss my lovely, little wife. I miss being at my home church where I can hear the truth preached; truth that is rightly divided. I miss the fellowship with like-minded believers. And I do miss those creature comforts (My own bed...
