    Cargo Box Equipment

    I have purchased equipment from N Haven in Louisville several times and as Doc says,mention FEDEXCC and you get a decent discount. This would certainly pay for your fuel from Columbus.

    Mobil Oil /Record Profits

    I think it's real important for the 300 folks who go to Northern Alaska in a year to view caribou must be maintained. Any idea how much it costs to build a refinery. We could get oil off the Florida Gulf Coasy but NIMBY. Wind power could be generated off of Cape Cod Mass but NIMBY. Shell oil...

    Fedex CC quartely newsletter

    I think you are out of luck unless your agreement with the owner states that you are to receive x percentage of all revenue paid to the truck. Key word is ALL. In this case the revenue was paid to the truck owner for incentive performance.

When you are running pressure build up in the system so the red mixture shows up.When the engine cools down ,the red coolant drains down into the block and the green shows up. I don't think you can mix the red and green,perhaps a radiator and cooling system flush...

    The Impact Of The Big Three On Me

    Lets not forget that at one time Companys were brutal to their workers. Children worked 12 hour days,female workers were sexually assualted by foreman's and so on.

    Rising Coolant Level--Head Gasket?

    If you can stop at a SpeedCo and get an oil analysis. I don't think fuel can get into your coolant but oil could. If your head gasket is blown it's usually the other way,coolant leaks into your oil. If possible try smelling your coolant,if you smell diesel fuel I think you have big problems.

    Authority

    Don't want to give you bad news but a 2 year old DUI will pretty much eliminate you from getting on. As the Nations guy said,you will need your own authority which will be expensive and then run under their umbrella for freight. Essentialy they will be a broker for the customer,obtain the...

    You will find many of the Expedite companys exhibiting there with equipment and personel. These companys will be the major players but there are smaller carriers that may not be able to afford the exhibit costs but might fit in very well with your needs. You will probably be able to speak with...
