DJ...I'm working on the carrier now. I'll have pics up when it's finally made. Leo, I'm in an FL-106 right now, and that thing bounces like crazy in pothole ridden truckstops. But if you think yours is bad, try an FL70 or 80. They don't call em Freightshakers for nothin. It was hard sleeping...

Called KY Trailer, and they said I'm looking at around 30k. JEEZ!!! For a simple pup??? I'm not asking for a bulletproof survellance vehicle! Glen, I tried Blackburn's and their number was disconnected. Hope your friend is still doing ok with his business. Thanx for the responses so far... I'll...

If she had a real attitude with you, your truck woulda been torn apart... like mine, twice in one trip. The way I look at it is that 1/6 of my company's freight is Canadian related. I won't give up that much for a little loss of dignity, especially when I know most of the time it's a great...

Well, my Super D is coming close to being reality. Now all I need is a pup trailer. I've done alot of searching, but could only find a couple that are to proper specs. If anyone can give me info on where else to search, I'd appreciate it. I need air ride, e-track, 28-36', and not more than 10...

RE: Has a Dispatcher ever said anything rude to yo TBoldt, I hope they paid all the doctor's bills...and on top of that, I woulda sued them for wrongful termination and possible willing neglegence for knowingly putting you in the situation that led to your injuries worsening. I could see...

Inauguration Day? Makes you wonder if this woulda been planned if Kerry got in. Probably not, as he woulda promised a new energy source from burning rocks. Oh...wait a min. We have that! It's called COAL! :7

I'm interested in alternative energy sources, but first and foremost, I'm a businessman who's worried about my bottom line... fuel costs. When everyone knows the government is sold out to big business, whether it be big oil or big auto, why not pressure the car manufacturers? I'm sure if ppl...

In the last post, I meant to say OFF DUTY, not ODND. I'm a putz :P

Huhuh huhhuhuh...Hey Beavis...he said poop. ;)

Absolutely agree with you on the war stories. It seems that the ppl who are the biggest experts on everything there can't seem to follow directions either. One other thing... I've met two former OTR drivers who switched to expediting. One quit after spending 10 hours in NC, and the other...

DJ, I brought up the idea with the ppl at Express-1, and they have no probs. I doubt anyone would as anyway you look at it, it would be a money maker. If you're looking for a truck, check out www.truckpaper.com There are tons of trucks there, and you could find something dirt cheap in any name...

Dj... I am looking at the same option. The way I look at it, there aren't enough bargain straight trucks. I wouldn't mind driving a tractor, but I hate 53'ers. I'm thinking of something 20' less. It's tougher to dock, but way better for street driving. And cances are, you'll make quite a few E...

If it is a commercial venture, yes he has to log it. Now, I'm not sure about the signs thing... I'm sure you'll get numerous answers on that one. But here's a story that may help: This guy was driving his RV when he was pulled over by a state trooper. The cop asked what he was doing with all...

Here's the scoop, Crazy. I ran into the same thing, and had an arguement with a scalemaster about it. I was told before that, once you were done with the business side of things, you could log OFF DUTY on your way home. Scale guy said that's only after I get home. We agreed to disagree (can you...

Can you say COWBOY? Ppl like that scare the hell outta me when they drift across the line. Just because they give you a load like that doesn't mean you have to take it... and you shouldn't have. Doesn't matter if it took you to Valhalla, Bubba....that was an unnecessary stunt. T-Hawk:-(

That's your perogative, NoProblem, but I would take Canadian runs any day of the week. And at night there is very little traffic. Simply being, I have found sitting near Toronto is a great way to get a good load. We just got an 803 miler out of StCatherines going to TN. I only spent 1-1/2 hours...

Once I tried drinking Bud Light. If that isn't bad enough, I mixed it with DrPepper. It actually tasted better with the DP. But no one told me afterwards that you shouldn't eat chocolate while drinking beer. HI...MY NAME IS RRRRRAALLLLLFFF!!!:P :P :P :P :P :P

Ow...ow...my sides... oh, they ache :) BWAAAHAHAHAHA :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7

Hey Raceman... your sig brought up something I saw the other night. --Why hug a tree when you can kiss one with your Kenworth-- ;-)

As soon as that first check "to get by" came my way, I would've been at least suspicious. I was in the same boat as you are, but owed about 1500 or so. In his case, I had nothing to put a lien on, thus found it cheaper to move on. In your case, everything told to you so far is good info. Try to...
