    OOIDA says owners should pay idling fines

    Greg, You missed my point so here we go. What you said about having an apu and being apart of some exclusive RVing expedite club not only makes no sense it sounds dumb. It appears you're saying if someone invests a few grand in an apu so they can rest comfortably and legally where idling isn't...

    OOIDA says owners should pay idling fines

    I could do it, but I wouldn't want to. I don't understand why these new trucks don't come from the factory with an apu. I did my fair share of roughing it while I was in the service. I won't lay down and sleep in a hole in the ground again either. At least not until I'm dead. LOL.

    OOIDA says owners should pay idling fines

    IMO, if an owner is to cheap to buy an apu and have it put on the truck to provide comfort for his drivers and save himself money he's a dumb a$$ and deserves the fine for that reason alone. Plus to me I don't want to sleep in a truck that is 45 or even 50 degrees. p.s. I know they are...

    Partner Carrier

    So say you have this certificate with J.B. and contact Schneider or some other company will this hurt your chances of getting freight with them?

    Partner Carrier

    Well if you look at that website you will see where they bring on smaller carriers to work with them. They also show available loads. Look at the link. Click on carriers then it will scroll down and show available loads.

    Partner Carrier

    I understand there are some independents out there that are partner carriers with different companies. I've been looking at different things and last night I was looking at J.B. Hunt's website. It says something on their website about having J.B. Hunt named as certificate holder on insurance...

    Political Correctness gone to far

    The makers of Seaseme Street have gone to far in the name of political correctness. I heard on the radio today that they are going to phase out the Cookie Monster and replace him with the "Veggie Monster". This is so stupid. I understand wanting kids to eat healthier, but I don't think firing...

    Waiting at truck stops?

    When I was on the road I used to see expediters all the time closed up in the truck waiting. Alot of them you would never see outside of the truck. I never could just sit in the truck for an extended period of time unless I was running. I need some interaction with other people regardless of the...

    Last Night's Cavs game

    Did anyone catch the Cleveland-Boston game last night? I read on msn.com that LeBron James took a hard foul and his mother, Gloria James, jumped up and started shouting at the Celtic that fouled LeBron. Then LeBron used some pretty colorful language to tell his mother to sit down and shut up...

    My Truck Surges At Idle

    I had a truck do that. All that I could figure out was every once in a while it would get a double shot of fuel while idling. I know this sounds crazy. It would never do it if I was idling after running. Only when idling from cranking up while letting the diffrent pressures build and motor warm...

    Barack who?

    I don't believe Barack has what it takes to win the general election either. If he were to win I don't think he would last the first four years. This is not, I repeat is not, a threat. I just think we all know that some crazy skinhead or klansman would try to assainate him. Unfourtantley he's...

    Obama rejects Hillary's advances

    I have been put out with the media for a long time. About the only national news program I watch is Fox News. Of course it is biased and leans towards the right a little, but there have been quite a few dems on there recently. I have no use for CNN unless they are reporting on some sort of...

    New World Order

    There will be a "New World Order" set up one day, and it will be led by the anti-Christ. The only thing is people, like me, who have called out on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ to be their personal Lord and Savior have nothing to worry about. The reason is before the New World Order takes...

    Upgrading to a Class "A"

    You'll enjoy it I think. If you don't think your trainer is doing a good job training you once you get out in the truck in a few weeks let Werner know. You can request to be reassigned due to poor training on behalf of the trainer and they shouldn't have a problem with it. They may be mad at the...

    Are Americans too Complacent?

    I'd like to attempt to add something to what Greg was saying if I may. If you ask me an immigrant is someone who moves from one country to another under 2 conditions. The first condition is they do so legally, and the second is they do so on their own free will. Some my disagree, but these are...
