    Getting jacked up by the cops in Iowa right now

    I believe that police officers are human and they will have human flaws. Some will be GI Joe, some will be Andy Griffith and the rest will be somewhere in between. Ive never known when I was standing next to a rapist, murderer or a child molester in a checkout line or anywhere else, but I have...

    Getting jacked up by the cops in Iowa right now

    Wow...Ive been meaning to tell you Amonger (sorry, I got kinda busy and forgot), but a couple nights ago I passed by you while you were sleeping. There was like a dozen cops surrounding your van! Yeah, they were all looking in the windows and crawling underneath it and all kinds of stuff trying...

    A word of caution to the EO community about DVT and blood clots.

    Blizzard, best wishes getting your health back. I've known 2 different drivers personally that had DVT. One is still driving, the other I havent heard from, so I dont know what happened with his condition. I know that the one who is still driving took it serious, followed the doctor's...

    The main difference was about .25-.30/mile immediate increase in linehaul rate. Another huge benefit was that C&M used practical mile routing which meant that you actually got paid for all the miles you ran. That was another reason that I refused most loads other than detroit to laredo at the...

    You actually have more control over those numbers than most realize. Good linehaul rates are the backbone, but improving your fuel mileage and reducing your unnecassary empty miles can make huge impacts on those numbers as well. When I first started in a straight truck (2nd carrier), I run a...

    We had one of those just across the MO border years ago. Cool place actually. It closed several years ago. The business that is there now gives a whole different meaning to "Call of the Wild".

    I can tell you why I used .70/mile. The topic of the thread was about a carrier whom you had signed with dropped you for asking for .90/mile. That tells me that your running for less than .90/mile or else you wouldnt have agreed to whatever their lower rate was to begin with. You also made it...
