I would hafta agree with Rich on this one. Be thankful he didn't give your truck the anal probe! I would rather have one bad-mouth me and let me go than have one be civil and tell me to pull up to a dock. I've been through so many times, nothing they say phases me. Granted... what he said went...

My opinion is that qualcomm is as essential to expediting as tires on the van/truck. I think it's penny-pinching on his part to want the driver to pay for the qualcomm because they're the ones using it. Once the satellite is put on the van, it's part of the van... therefore, the owner's...

That $5000 fine is only if you didn't send your PAPS paperwork ahead an hour before you made it to the border. If it still doesn't go thru, the broker gets hit with the fine. Make sure you have the fax conformation sheet with you, as it's proof of when you sent it. As far as border crossing...

What do they say? It gets worse before it gets better? Only time will tell if it was a success or failure. I'd bet Germany and Japan had the same growing pains after WW2.

We stopped at the Chicopee truckstop last night, once again. I know many like their 50's restaurant, but I feel like being contrary LOL. The food wasn't bad at all, but our waitress didn't seem like she wanted to wait. First, I had to mention about the salad that came with my meal. Then my...

RE: Looking for a good body shop near Toledo or De Another good one is Davenport Truck and Trailer in Dearborn Heights.

If they ended up the same customer (usually shipper), we get an extra drop-off. If it's two seperate loads we get paid for two loads as Panther does too.

I'll tell you what I know of Landstar. They don't have a dispatch, they have brokers. Each broker takes care of a particular area. I've heard that trucks either do very well or don't last long with them because their system is non-traditional. If you're a people person, they might do well for...

I'm not sure about the one in Nashua as it's been close to 8 years since I was there. I've been to the 50's theme truckstop in Chicopee and the waitress there about freaked us out!!! She was WAYYYYYY too friendly! Food in my opinion was ok, but it's good as far as Mass goes. No parking fee...

If you use it past the expiration date, what happens? It could prove fatal to the bugs??? :7 :7 :7

Actually, that two hours extra are only for local drivers, and only usable once a week.

And then there's the 3000+ Americans who didn't volunteer to be a target on Sept. 11, 2001. Did we forget them? Because of that, we now have a foothold in the Middle East to ensure it doesn't happen again. Because of that, millions of people are now free to criticize their government, where...

I don't know if they'll charge you for the tow truck, unless it's definitely your fault. All I know is, when I'm running single, keep as straight a logbook as possible cause safety is right there on top of me. I've had to swap out one and turn down two cause I didn't have enough hours. They...

Deadheading home (Romulus, MI area) from Franklin, OH yesterday, I've had to have seen around 10 Panther B and D units going the other way. Other than that, one or two Tri-states, two TSTs, and a couple small companies. While I'm happy that my company seems so busy, it makes me wonder if the...

Instead of everyone griping about how bad it is in the Detroit/Toledo area, get out as soon as you drop? Personally, I don't have a prob getting a good run out of here, and I live here. I do have a prob with Grand Rapids if there aren't any other trucks, cause they'll dh you to death for 150...

T-hawk's wife here...he's out on a run. We have Sprint and have been very happy with them. Our plan has me, T-Hawk, his mother, and Critter Truckin all sharing a plan. We talk free to any Sprint phone and have the nights starting at 7pm (which really makes a difference) for $5 (for all...

Merkur has the right answer... take your first out to Indi or Seville, OH. In fact, you could go to Battle Creek or Fort Wayne and they usually have longer runs there. I live in Detroit and fortunately I'm taking minis till my co-driver returns from his vacation. Being a straight truck team in...

I've been to the downtown Nashville TA. You can see the Titan's football stadium from there. I think we may pay a visit when the Seahawks are in town in December ;-)

Dave ain't here, man! :+

That's good advice. I forgot to mention about parking close to the truck stop. I usually find that the Js down south have spaces right next to the building that are usually empty. I pull into those as my wifi is pointing right at their antenna. And there's a garbage can practically outside my...
