Yeah that is pretty ridiculous. the kid was merely demonstrating his freedom of speech. The principal seems a little paranoid to me and I doubt he really could have had any influence one way or the other on a Naval Academy appointment that was already secured unless a crime had been committed...

I am researching converting a tractor to a class 8 straight truck and I am wondering how big a box can be used before the tractor frame needs to be stretched. Anybody here done this and if so what is an approximate price range for doing it?

Ahh yes, Marie.... I get a charge out of her....

Each time a discussion arises as to who belongs in an Expediter's Hall of Fame or who was one of the Pioneers of Expediting, I never hear anyone mention these guys... They are the true pioneers of Expediting. Roll on Big O. Godspeed!

I have not addressed your intelligence. You keep saying you were trying to make things better but you do not say what was wrong or what you did to make it right. In fact, you make no sense at all. This cloak and dagger game you are playing is of no use to anyone and merely paints you as...

Wow, So much vague nonsense. Did you once end your name with 334? Oh and the leopard reference is an old and well known one.

This country doesn't have anything to do with it. "Should be" is not a valid defense. Turtle told you what will happen if you guys keep it up. Believe me I know about being, ahem, "moderated"...

It's not about blame dude. It's about common sense. A leopard doesn't change it's stripes. If you get screwed the very first week it isn't likely to change and shame on that owner. The second week and beyond? Shame on you...

Agreed. I think too many people see this business as an easy way to make money. They talk to some van driver in a parking lot one day and are told tales of milk and honey.. They get it in their head that this is going to be child's play and great days of untold riches await them at the end of...

Yeah, except I'm not kidding....:( I've heard this a few times now. It could just be truckstop BS but then Pilot purchasing Flying J a few years ago was dismissed as just truckstop nonsense back then also....

She might not be worth much. I heard some carriers are getting ready to disqualify Sprinters as viable expediting vehicles due to the high frequency of break downs...

Did you ever see Soylent Green?

This is exactly the point! You have taken someone else's opinion and attempted to promote it as fact. That's right.. Just the facts ma'am, just the facts... Ok, so don't point to a certain driver! You said there is a problem with the contract. Point to the contract, not a single driver...

Hogwash. You could post what you deem to be the problems with the contract without any retribution to anyone! You have chosen to stir up a controversy and then not provide the specifics. I believe they refer to that as "trolling"...

I drive for a 10 star carrier. 5 stars is a little weak in my opinion....

Not really. There are at least as many carriers who do not allow multi-contracting who have gone by the wayside as there are carriers who have allowed multi-contracting who have rolled over. A lot more if you look over the past 10 years.

The contracted terms are what they are, however, you have not sufficiently shared what those terms are. If you want to make a point about a specific aspect of those terms you should post an example of what you are talking about. At this point you seem like nothing more than a disgruntled former...

Just to be clear is this popped or unpopped?

Wrap that rascal....

Quite true. How to survive for at least 30 days should have been determined before that van or truck ever left the owner's lot (or home if an o/o). In this business, when somebody sits for 10 days in any kind of vehicle, regardless of who owns it, who runs it, who finds the freight for it, what...
