The thing about it is you can still pull the d unit loads if you need to instead of deadheading. Which I'm sure pay decently for a refer, correct?

I saw a comic cartoon that summed it up once. The husband and wife were sitting on a sofa in the sleeper and one said to the other so what if we can only haul two skids at least we are comfortable doing it. If someone is willing to pay the money for a big aftermarket sleeper then evidently at...

RE: sort of Got a load in El Paso going to Farmington,MN got up there and couldn't find the place. Come to find out it was Farmington,NM where the load was going, but the miles that were first sent on the qc made a whole more sense for MN than NM. I was paid round trip.

If there is a company president slot open I have to say Jerry Stewart, Sr. of TranStewart. He is also co founder. Really takes care of his people.

Thank you to all the vets. It's a shame but I saw a statistic once thar said over 1/3 of America's homeless population are Veterans. Kinda makes you think.

RE: That Buckeye QB is horrid. I "hope" we win ne I gaurantee there will be alot of grumbling from the supposed fans. If you guys lose to michigan at it be real bad grumbling.

All I know about this oil mess is my Grandmaw's brother owns 2 oil wells in Oklahoma and he told me US drillers are limited by the government on how many barrels they can pump per day. Plus he told me when he figured up the cost on everything between crude and diesel there is 23 dollars per...

RE: That Buckeye QB is horrid. I "hope" we win ne gator, why not just say ok we lost and there is next week? why be disgruntled? is it that you have been riding on the bandwagon and now that there won't be a national championship you are thinking of getting off? I'm just glad my team is bowl...

RE: That Buckeye QB is horrid. I "hope" we win ne I would be embaressed to be an Ohio State fan. Not because of the lose. My team(razorbacks) got stomped in the ground today by tn. It's the way you guys lost. The ohio players throwing punches on the illionis players. What's that about? Then...

I think hot shot express has a brokerage. Not real for sure you might check them out.

Yeah if the fsc programs worked the way they are supposed to it shouldn't really matter. When fuel prices went high right after Katrina I was talking to a husband and wife O/O team who said they hoped the price didn't do down because they where getting .50 per mile fsc and it was paying for all...

Another good reason to have the book is to carry in with you to the scale house. On time I got pulled in the scale house at Vicksburg,MS on I 20. I took in all my papers and my lil green book. The dot man asked to see my b.o.ls. I told him I didn't have any because I was empty and on the way to...

You know not to get off subject but I think trucking as a whole is taking a hit. I live close to and go to community college in Stuttgart,AR. It's the self proclaimed Duck and Rice Capital of the World. Any way there are a lot of grain haulers around. Most I've known since I was knee high to a...

Well they get 1.22 per mile. Plus they are buying fuel just like the fleets are in big numbers. Look at FedEx Ground. I think they are getting about 1.20 per mile but they are only paying 1.25 for fuel. That can make a big difference to the bottom line. True that's a low rate. I don't see how...

RE: Tired of everyone going THawk, You need to watch your self sir. You are going way off topic mr. I'm sure I'm most likey the worst at going off topic, but at the time I usually don't realize it. And the comment about people shouldn't be on here because they are not expediting or trucking...

Great words thawk. I mean that in all seriousness. I often noticed in my time in trucking that some dispatchers(not all) try to push drivers to do things that are unsafe. The reason I think they continue to do this is because some drivers go ahead with it while some tell them no. They most...

RE: Survey I'm doing for a research paper in colle thanks for the reply. :)

You know I don't know what we shouldv'e done about Iraq. It's easy to armchair quaterback after the fact and say "oh I wouldv'e done this or that". Sure it's easy to say you would have done something else because no one knows how plan b would have went because we went with plan a. I think all...

RE: and borders too OVM, I understand what you are saying. If they raised it to 50 whats to stop them from raising it to 52 or 55? I mean they are cutting rates down to what people would have thought to be really low several years ago. The sad thing about it is some newbie who doesn't know...
