    The Tea Party Strikes Again.

    In a month or less it will probably be "who is Chris Daniels"?

    Load One Trucks sitting

    I don't make a habit of locking threads, and I won't here unless it turns into a personal pile of madness.

    Load One Trucks sitting

    Wow...I am just getting a look at this and it looks like a train wreck. I am at two of the carriers here. Both have issues at different times for different reasons. That is how it is because they are a BUSINESS. As the old saying goes, If one had no faults, everyone would be there. A issue came...

    It is all in the frequency and what is left in the pot when you are done.

    Another bad idea

    Another stupid move by Boehner. Waste of taxpayers money and will accomplish nothing other than Obama laughing. This lawsuit will go nowhere. Boehner plans to file suit against Obama over alleged abuse of executive power | Fox News

    You forgot the second most important piece of advice. Don't disclose the first piece of advice to your significant other. :cool:

    CAT 3126 Turbo Diesel

    I would start at the fuel tank. Shine a light in there and see if you have a lot of debris or algae. May have some blockage in the pickup lines if ran low. If you have a clear Raycor filter you can see if a bunch of junk is floating around. Also, if this is the first time in a while that you...

    60/40 Split?????

    I have preached that for years. When you hear "percentage" it all depends on what that number is based on. Sometimes it is good, and other times, not so good. I as well have had to make some adjustments based on those "percentages".

    Out of touch

    I can't argue that, but I didn't want it to seem they were only favoring the Clintons. Since they have Bush's daughter employed as well, it wouldn't be a stretch to think one of Obama's daughters lands a job there.

    60/40 Split?????

    Some of that depends on the carrier and how they split their pay with relation to FSC and the line haul. At Load One we set a minimum on the line haul for a straight. It can get lopsided if a run pays a buck on the line haul and sixty cents on the FSC. Can't run a truck on .40 cent a mile. Even...

    Out of touch

    With regards to her daughter, I think it is more of a motive of access. Keep in mind, they (NBC) also employs Jenna Bush. My guess is for the same reason. Outside of that, I don't believe the Clinton's left "broke". More like out of touch and a fair amount of debt. They did have the ability to...

    60/40 Split?????

    I would say 15 days at the most. Some have quick pay, but that usually comes at a cost. Most will provide the fuel money up front on a load with the balance being paid on that 15 days.

    60/40 Split?????

    From a fleet owner prospective, the typical fleet owner on a 60/40 split pays for everything except usually fuel (100 percent of FSC) to the driver. Outside of the fuel, personal insurance and things like that would get picked up by the driver. The fleet owner covers the truck, insurance...

    What is wrong with this picture?

    That is accurate information, but I believe from last year. With the new "wave" over the last six months I am starting to wonder. They have so many now they say they can't count them all. Mainly women and kids. On a side note, I don't think you need to gun people down to secure the border. Take...

    What is wrong with this picture?

    It is absolutely genius. Makes it much easier to bring drugs in while our Border Patrol is babysitting little kids. And then it gets better. The countries sending them extort money from us to slow the flow and not advertise it as much.

    Mexico won't stop them because their local police are paid to look the other way.

    And of course if you are going to be giving "free" benefits, that likely will bring you a few votes. ;)

    What is wrong with this picture?

    So, I read today we are going to be sending millions to South American countries to help them with our illegal immigrants. Say what? So, this sets up us giving them money to keep their citizens. So, when these countries want more money, they will send us more illegals to cash in. Call me crazy...

    The Tea Party Strikes Again.

    Get a grip. What does that have to do with hiding emails and destroying hard drives? And then of course through a year long investigation, they now just mention it. Just no where to go on that.
