    Extranet Password Reset

    I can echo aileron's experience. As I had other paperwork coming due at the same time as the password (and knew what the ppwrk was) I was hitting the skip button and inadvertently wiped out my p-word message. Today...no extranet...whoops. I called in on a landline as redytrk suggested and heard...

    350k miles Blown Head Gasket

    Were their maintenance requirements for the cooling system and were they followed? Some coolants over time can become abrasive and can literally erode gaskets and seals. Some of these super long life coolants can lull you into a sense of security that things are AOK to leave alone when in fact...

    the seven people you meet at expo

    I think one of the big reasons for the success of the workshop was because it wasn't formal or planned to death. People were in a room of their peers and there was nothing to intimidate them from speaking out, such as a scheduled topic list of the formality of a podium or head table. If there is...

    Corky's in Memphis is nice, not a great place to find parking for anything bigger than a van if I recall. Food was really good!

    cargoMAXX

    It is a nice unit, very well built and has a lot of neat ways to configure it, right now tho, at it's current length it would be hard to justify unless you routinely hauled tall 2 skid freight. However, I talked at length with Travis and the owner of the company and they heard our needs very...

    Canada New to canadian expediting!

    Research your carrier's well, there are more than a few that will still limit you to an HOS standard even if your load does not require you to scale (HAZMAT). But as OVM said, if you really want to...and you are prepared to deal with it being slow (and southbound freight right now for vans is...

    Impromptu EO Forum Members Gatherings

    I heard some of the announcements but most of the time I thought the PA was a bit boomy and could only make out some of what was being said. It's tough to fill a big place like that with sound I guess. I thought about the idea of the different color name badges a bit. I like it, make it...

    anyone have experience with a cat 3408

    For starters, I'm pretty sure that is a 3208, 3408's were massive 18 liter 500 hp plus monsters. The 3208 was a 10.5 liter V8. Some were turbocharged (3208T) while others were not. The engines developed anywhere between 170 and 250 hp depending on the year and the configuration. They were...

    the seven people you meet at expo

    Why do I forsee all the recruiters at the show quickly herding all of us out of sight of the new folks!! I think it was Lawrence that suggested to me that maybe next year a different color badge might be somehow do-able. Either way I still want a pair of those shorts!

    Dear Keeshond0622.... (Locked Thread)

    Re: Dear Keeshond0622.... Actually, if you talk to other vendors who pay to advertise on here, we are quite a loyal supportive bunch! I gave my truck to a vendor at the show on Friday to use to demo a product he was selling......does that make me a puke? Had another vendor wave and give me a...

    That's a wrap!

    Linda had a great idea and then backed it up with a great job. If only 2 hours of highway would go by that fast. The shot of Wingnut standing in front of Elvis on stilts was a hoot.

    When I crossed back into Canada tonight I gave Customs a description of said "flashy shorts" with the words DO NOT ADMIT written across the bottom. Good thing E-1 uses TST eh Ken?:D

    Re: Dear Keeshond0622.... Now it seems the tactic is to reply to every thread with a ":confused:". I trust in good time once the mods are all back in the loop from Expo stuff this problem will go away! Nicely put together Diva! Did you get extra points in math for showing how you got the...
