Don!t want to brag but I bought stock in XM when it was $2.00 per share,closed the other day at $17. They are really in bed with General Motors, and owe GM and Boeing a ton of money,but I think it will eventually wind up in the $40 range. Then I see them being bought out by Motorola,Direct TV...

Jsper Engines out of Jasper Indiana rebuild engines but you need to send the block to them or take a reconditoned one out of their stocks. If you call they can send you prices. I have been told by my local Cummins Service Manager,whom I trust that to rebuild a Cummins C 8.3 runs between $4-6 K...

Now 1k a week may sound like a lot but the big question is ,how many miles are you driving for that 1K. What you really need to know is what are you netting out of that 1 k.

RE: FMSCA Clarifies ambiguous and controversial HO In the Truck Topics article the Panther lady hit it right on the head when she said"If if the 14 hour unstoppable clock nbecomes a reality it will wreck havoc in trucking and expediting.". I couldn!t agree more. I wonder how shippers and...

Don!t know of any in Texas but I believe there is one oufit out of Tulsa OK,try to do a search using Hotshot and get info. There is a company in PA ,Jones Motor Freight,they used to do hotshot freight,frankly you don!t see as many hotshot rigs as you used too. Up around South Bend and Mishawaka...

I have a cousin in New jersey and he is a Physician,last year he told me that in his Medical Opinion that ATKINS DIET may cause you to loose some pounds but it is tough on your liver and digestive systems. I have stayed at 158 pounds thriugh 16 years of trucking and those who know me know I...

Now that one has been kicking around for a long time. I have a daughter in law in NJ and she sent me this post about 2 years ago.She does page herself over the intercom and writes for sexual favors on her checks.

Most of the erxpediting companies want and need T/T units, I know that FDX CC,Express One,Tri State all are advertising for E Units. However if you are planning to run as a single drive I suggest you read all of the threads on this forum regarding the new HOS Regs coming in January.

No way I would steal Dan Tilley!s thunder, from everything I have heard he is the man for expediting trucks,but I am wondering what ever happened to Dan Schultz. I think he worked for Knoxville Freightliner but had an office in the Speedway off I 71/76 split area. I liked the look of that...

I have never had a problem with FYDA in Columbus but at FYDA in Youngstown, the service facility was unable to service my FL 70,because they had no filters for a Cummins C series engine.That says a lot.

When Conway Now first started up they were using Vans that would also pull 14-16 foot trailers. This didn!t last long as the transmissions in the vans were not holding up under the torgue needed to pull the loaded van plus the loaded trailer. Ran into a guy on I 70 in Washington Pa one night and...
