There was a big tire fire at the Kingdom City, MO Petro shop today. The tire fire started outside the shop, caught one wall on fire and a storage trailer that was parked next to the tires. I have photos but do not know how to upload them to EO. If someone wants to PM an email address I can...

What's wrong with living in Florida? We ain't all swampbilly's.

Petro, Kingdom City, MO.

Antioch, Tennessee. On my way to Kansas City.

Finally got a run. Atlanta to Kansas City over the weekend.

That looks like my setup, have you been peaking in my windows?:)

Does anyone know anything about the Nexus S 4G from Google for use on the Sprint network? I am getting ready to change and I like the looks and reviews on this phone. Here is a link...

Most of the flat rate trucks are solos (I think). It might just be because I'm in Florida and freight out of Florida has always been slow.

Still at home. Went back in service this morning as a solo (for the first time) on the flat rate program. Did not get any load offers. As a team we usually get dispatched right away. So far I am not impressed.

So, if I were to change my plan to Sprint's unlimited everything and get one of those new fancy phones I could access the internet from it, send text messages and pictures. Any recommendations for an easy to use phone for the technologically challenged?

Wow, am I confused and technologically challenged. My cell phone works as a phone and can take pictures (but I don't know what to do with them. They seem to be trapped in the phone) and has voice mail. I use a broadband card for the internet. Is it really necessary to have a phone that does...

A lot of times it's cheaper to buy something in the truck stop then to drive 10 miles to save a buck. We make lists of what we need and then try to get them when near a Walmart.

Back in service tomorrow. Going out solo for a few weeks, wife has to stay home and take care of some business. I'll see how well the flat rate works for a solo.

That's why you should only take it to a dealer as a last resort. My local shop is across the street from a Freightliner dealer and people would rather wait than go to the dealer. About 30% cheaper too.

I met a no legged trucker. He had a wheel chair lift that went right into the sleeper. And he didn't even let me get the door for him on his way into the truck stop.

Ours gets warm, but not what I would call hot. Might want to have that checked out.

The man has a way with words.:)

When we drove for a fleet owner we got 60% of the gross pay including FSC, tolls, etc. We paid for fuel only. He paid for work accident insurance, tolls, fuel taxes, etc. I think it worked out better for us than for him.

And Miami lost again.:( Now 0-3. Let's go for the draft pick.

We had a fuel cap stolen at the T/A in Richmond.:mad: While we were asleep in the truck.
