    MPG Challenge

    Yall act like you've never seen a Chinense expediter before. I can tell that is one of Panda Express' rides. It's a what they call a Lei Unit.

    CB Radios

    CB shop would be about the best place to go. You can go in the truck stop and get one, but I wouldn't. A good truckstop radio is going to cost about 100 dollars plus tax. Then you have to take it to the cb shop to get it peaked and tuned so it will talk farther. A peak and tune is kind of like...

    100K Buyout

    Rich as always there is a flip side to every coin, and you brought it to my attention. I hadn't thought of it that way before. I have never downed anyone for having additional income. I just never liked to see someone, especially with the same company that I was with, take a cheap load. Once the...

    Opinions on income

    I'm going to be upfront and honest with you. Forget about a Sprinter. The market for Sprinters and Cargo Vans is flooded. Almost all of the Sprinter and Cargo Van O/Os will tell you that a newbie hardly has a chance. Take it for what it's worth. I have a good feeling others will back me up on...

    100K Buyout

    I hope you don't think you are going to lease on with an expedite company and all the BS is going to end. It will most likely be the same amount or more BS. Just a different type. Now on the part timers and semi retired I have to agree with OVM. I've talked to these people and most of them...

    spendthrift wants the job

    I don't think giving inmates in prison condoms is a good idea. I mean the officers in the prisons are already having a hard enough time keeping them from having sex with each other, and these clowns go and encourage it. Plus most time they are having sex in prison it's about dominance not about...

    San Diego

    I wish I could catch someone going to San Diego. Especially if they were going to be there on a Thursday. I'd try to get someone some money to go to the Marine Corps Recruit Depot on Vistor's Thursday and buy me a couple of things from the recruit PX.

    CON-WAY NOW

    Well I guess we could talk about some recent stuff with Conway. I've been seeing Conway Truckload Tractors pulling CFI trailers and CFI tractors pulling COnway Truckload trailers. When I was in West Memphis at Christmas time I noticed some Conway Truckload equipment on the CFI yard. I wonder who...

    Where did it go?

    I doubt think Lawerence is going to put the post back. One thing I can say about Lawerence is when he says something he stands behind it. Plus he was telling the truth when he said people have come here and complained about EO and it didn't get deleted. They just weren't new posters.

    Is there a way to supplement during down times?

    Stay away from uship.com. That stuff makes regular cheap freight look like a good deal. I think about the highest rate I've seen on there is about a buck a mile on a t/t load. Then your carrier is going to take at least 15% of that. Ouch you aren't making anything. It's mainly stuff people sale...

    The Wishy Washy Candidates

    I certainly don't agree with landowners only voting. Heck that would knock me out of voting. The point I was trying to make is so many people feel like once they leave the voting booth they have done their part and there is nothing left for them to do for the next 2 years. Then 2 years later...

    The Wishy Washy Candidates

    And you think Congress would vote that into law? It's the same reason why Congress put term limits on the President, but not themselves. They are not going to do anything to adversly affect their postitions.

    Where did it go?

    Everyone keeps saying there are 2 sides to every story. Actually there are 3. The driver's side, the owner's side and the truth. Recently my father in law and my wife's uncle got into it. My father in law told me what happened. Then a couple of days later my wife's uncle told me what happened. 2...

    The Wishy Washy Candidates

    You might want to reread what I said. Or do you guys have a house seat open in Kentucky with 6 front runners? If that is the case how do you narrow down the field up there? The point I'm trying to make is everyone wants to sit back and complain, but do nothing to help solve the problem. The...

    Dog Chow & Walley World.

    That is funny. Speaking of dog food they are more particular about it than human food. I was pulling a hopper bottom for a friend just helping him out while he had an open truck. I was taking a load of rice to a dog fod plant in Lebanon,TN. The plant refused the load. I called dispatch. They...

    My Wife

    I appreciate it Butterfly. Things are getting even harder on her because her dad is in bad health. We know he has emphysema, COPD, diabetes and he smokes. Plus he refuses to go to the doctor. Today he was trying to get ready for church and couldn't get dressed because he was to winded. My mother...

    Trucker Slang (part 1)

    Internationals are sometimes called Corn Binders then that got shortened down to Binders. All of the specialty RGNs and stepdecks and all get called skateboards like flatbeds do to sometimes. Just like grain trailers get called hopper bottoms,grain wagons, and covered wagons. Those...
