    Expedite With Tractor and Pup Trailer?

    It just takes a little time to adjust, once you get experience the confidence follows. The pup trailers are used by FedEx, UPS, and ABF now but if you think 53 feet is to much try pulling doubles or triples. A straight truck would be a better option than a pup trailer for an individual.

    Might Sequestration be a Boon for Expediters? If So, What Will You Charge?

    I think it will cause the higher Spring rates to be postponed because there are to many people that will not understand how to use the situation to their advantage.

    Expedite With Tractor and Pup Trailer?

    Starting a NEW Empty Nester's Life!!!

    Don't go through the school unless both of you are rookies. The school is likely way more expensive than other schools because of it's location. There are better options out there to obtain a class B.

    Penny stocks and beyond

    Penny stocks can actually be easy to make money off of but it takes some research and understanding of a pump and dump. I got a 50% ROI in a month because I found CBIS had done their PR push the same time in 2011 and 2012 so I figured they would do it this year as well. If you have money that...

    They would be limited to using just the AT&T network which is the problem. They rely on other companies called roaming partners to provide their coverage.
