Just a thought, sounded pretty good when I read it but didn't really figure out the actual cost. As for credit I would think anyone leasing a truck would have to have credit. As for reserves, I'm poor as a church mouse but do own my home in Kansas outright. Was just inquiring. Would have to have...
Just saw a classified for a 2008 Hino leased onto Panther. 5000. down with 2400 month for 60 months. Wondering how Panther teams are doing if it might be worth checking into? :confused:
Well, we won't be going to Canada anymore. Gonna miss it, is a beautiful place but not worth limiting the truck to 65 for U.S. loads as well. Don't do enough Canada to make it worth limiting it in the U.S. too. :(
Never had it happen at an ATM at a truck stop but did have it happen at Walmarts self-check isle and their ATM machine. Used my debit card and took the cashback option of 100.00 when paying. The machine only gave me 60.00 back. The cashier opened the machine and gave me my other 40.00 it was...
Sometimes as we are driving down the interstate our gps will pipe up and say "whenever possible make a legal u-turn". Always get a laugh out of it.
Sometimes it is off a bit on addresses or just recently I tried for a Wylie Texas address and the gps wouldn't take it by city, had to do it by...

We eat in the truck.
We no longer take 'off' time. Stay in service,available, taking loads.
Purchase only necessary items.
Count pennies . :rolleyes:
I try to 15 the pre-trip and flag the post trip but sometimes do the reverse. I think it is individual with each day. If I have time to do it at the start I prefer to start with it. If it is a 'shorted time' pick-up I will go to the pick-up, get loaded and then do the pre-trip. I just do it...
This article was written by Sandy Long. Layover.com The Driver Fatigue Checklist.
With all the recent focus on driver fatigue, it appears that everyone is getting into the act. The latest bit of news that we hear is a Minnesota state trooper who has developed a "Driver Fatigue Evaluation...
Hey, ya know what? I like that philosophy! Think I'll adopt it for my own! Coursin, I'm only 35, Yep, I'm sure I am, yep that's me 35, not a day older then 35! ssshhhhhh, don't tell anyone hee hee hee! :D
Could be your electric in your truck. We had the same problem when we got into this truck. So far have gone through 2 CB's, 3 laptop cords (at 130.00 each, ouch), 2 coffee makers, and a toaster and a few other little electrical items (like my electrical toothbrush) that I am probably forgetting...
Hey Turtle, you left out who wrote the article! Just curious.
Like I said I'm definitely no politician, just an ordinary housewife, mom and grandma all rolled into one! :D
Yep, gjmcclain is right Turtle. His employment as a State Trooper would not be public info. To get that info you would have to know what department he worked for. There is no public roster giving you that information. If you know what department he worked for you would have to check with that...
Ok Turtle, got it in my aol e-mail. What about the article is misleading. If this is true I think everyone should know! Personally, I don't like Obama! I personally think he is screwing up our country! So explain what is incorrect. Like you said, I am reading it and I find it a major concern if...
