I don't see any reason why you can't go for loads on your own. You have your insurance and DOT authority. Just make sure that the company you are dealing with privately knows that it's you and not the company that you are leased to. You will probably need some type of generic bill of lading...

RE: Preparing to invest in a new truck & team. Adv Man oh Man your story is scarey. I would never borrow on my home to finance a truck driven by relatives. I believe in the old axion about relatives, you do not loan them money and you do not hire them. your relatives are probably OK guys but...

My experience has been 50 gallons is the magic amount that gets you free showers and no charge for cash advances. This seem to be true in all of the large chains.

Glad to hear that you are doing OK.Tom and his Wife deserve a large round of applause for their caretaking. I have never met Tom and am sorry that he no longer posts on EO. His posts were well written and informative. I would as others that I have spoken to would like to see him back on EO.

I rarely use the CB anymore,only turn it on for bad weather conditions or traffic problems. Too much BS and ranting and raving these days.Sometimes when I see another Expediter I will turn it on and try to reach him/her,but thats about it.

From Thursday night to Friday morning fuel in FL rose .03 per gallon.I deadheaded 200 miles to make a pick up in Tampa,drove 477 miles to Atlanta and it cost me $150.00 for fuel. Filled up in Wildwood FL ,$170 for 75 gallons, and this customer has a contract with no fuel surcharges allowed so...

RE: Preparing to invest in a new truck & team. Adv I am with FEDEX and let me say it is not what it used to be. Last night I delivered into Atlanta at 1900. There were 8 D units and 6 E units ahead of me and this was on Friday which is normally a very busy day. I was fortunate to get a trip out...

RE: Preparing to invest in a new truck & team. Adv Expediting is a hit or miss business. There will be weeks where your team will do 4,000 miles and there will be weeks when your team does 1,000 miles.Lots of variables in expediting,location is a key,how many other trucks are ahead of...

Here's an old one. Never cremate a Irish man on St Patricks day as it takes 3 days for the flames to extinguish. Remember this classic: What does an Irishman have for a 7 course meal? Answer One Potato and a six pack.:P :P

I bet it's a misprint as a young guy I know (23) just went over there to do maintenance on vehicles and he is getting $45.00 per hour.Was that add in the TU?

I have seen several vans with the passenger seat removed. It seems to work out well as the drivers had put cabinets etc in that area.One guy even had his laptop bolted to the top of a cabinet.

Dave and others, My response was based on Miko's original post.He was looking for advice on how to get his pay check quicker. He was not looking for nor did he deserve a lecture on his lifestyle and present financial situation.

When you are done with your shower,right before you start to put on your socks splash a little alchol on your feet and shower shoes.This will kill any fungus that may have splashed up from the shower floor to your feet and shoes. I met a guy last year who came down with a horrible foot...

I am not certain of this ,but at one time I believe the FDX insurance carrier would deny any accident claims if you had a pet in the cab. They claim you could get distraced by the pet. You might want to check with the insurance company and as Terry said,pets are absolutely prohibited at nuclear...
