Another thing when you do decide on a fleet owner to work for you need to get a contract with your pay details on it. Plus who pays for fuel,maintence,tolls, and truckwashes. How long does he expect you to stay out? How long will he let you be home for? If you buy something for the truck will...

I know I am. That would be a funny site though. See a driver walking into the truckstop with his pants around his ankles and a litter box stuck to his butt.:+

whitey, I apologize. I misunderstood what you where saying. I thought you were suggesting taking a litter box, and using it like a cat. That's my fault.

Today I donated blood for the first time. I hadn't done it in the past because I was scared it might hurt. Well to be quite honest I thought the whole process was pretty much pain free. I was really nervous about the needle they use to draw the blood, but there was nothing to it. The worst part...

Rich, They think they have something to prove.

You know a solo has 14 hours a day that he/she can be on duty and driving combined. A 14 hour team is a team that can only do 14 hours a day. See if your wife had a permit and was driving you would have to be in the passenger seat training/observing her. This would put you on duty. Therefore the...

I've heard different ones say you don't know if you've got a detriot until you put 500,000 miles on it. I know one guy that has a little under 500k and is on his third detriot. This guy knows how to drive and take care of a truck so that's not the problem. The motor international has now they...

Well it sounds like everything might have worked out for the best. Especially since your first job let you come back. You might want to wait until your wife gets her learner's permit then ya'll can go out as what they call a 14 hour team she passes the road test. That's if they even still have...

Well you learn something new everyday. I looked at the freightliner website the other day and didn't say anything about the argosy when it listed its different models. I just assumed they were out of production.

The only drawback to a cabover is no one is making them anymore. SO you will be stuck with a used one.

If the students knew what teacher was packing then that teacher would become a hard target. Meaning the shooter would most likely try to take that person out first. I was in the military during 9/11 and after that we were told not to wear our uniforms while flying home for this reason. In theory...

I think what he is getting at is about many of those say 250k miles were actually paid miles how many were deadhead.

Randy, That may be sure, but 12,000 the max for both t/t and straight truck? I found that alot of weight on the steers comes from fuel. It weighs 8 lbs a gallon. So if you have a load and are close to being over on the steers, and have 1/2 tanks of fuel do the math to figure out how much more...

you see were it blue and says something like 8 points? click there and you will see rate this user. click there and then you can rate.:)

If you can't find bailing wire I'm sure 50 lb test fishin line would work. Man my freshman english teacher would be mad if she saw this. She just told me today she wish I would start talking mre intelligently, and less like I counry boy. What can I say I'm a country boy. Brought up on the rice farm.

Peeing in a litter box? Sounds a little gross to me.

Detroit tends to burn alot of oil. Cat tends to burn more fuel.

I went to a ford plant once and there was special employee parking for those who drove fords. It was closer to the building. I'm sure alot of plants do this. The funny thing was that all the Fords were old junkers. I asked the shipping boss about it, and he said alot of people buy old ford...

The only problem with that is why buy a tractor and get d unit pay and have to maintain a trailer when you just pull a company trailer for little or no additional cost and make more money?

Well there has been another school shooting today. In Cleveland,OH.
