    Serpentine belt heads up

    Been there done that 8 times this year. They always say, "need a new pulley, need a new pully, need two pulleys blahblah. My trans coolant line was taken out twice. The last one went while I was in Nashville and the tech said he didn't have one that fit mine, however, he had a coolant line for...

    Who is close to me and why I need to know

    I agree that Landstar is a very good system. I had one of their drivers who couldn't get on line. He gave me his info and I logged on for him. That was a good setup. He could even see loads not covered and bid on them. Show type of equipment needed, weight, number of skids, Pick up and drop...

    Who is close to me and why I need to know

    Even a mac19 with option to enter a city would help, but they have to let us know in that mac19 if we move there you will be ?? out. This should not have a time limit on it either, and I need to know while under load. IE: getting close to drop, passing by big city, do a mac19 to see how many are...

    Who is close to me and why I need to know

    I find it strange that Express-1 is putting forth an effort to be the leader in this biz. However, without giving the owners access to info that we need to make a sound judgement on where to move. IE: I was in Seymour,IN and moved to Whiteland, IN 45 miles, only to find there were 4 Sprinters...

    Question for Firearms Experts

    You can go to the .17, but if you are just shooting cans and snakes 22 is fine. Ruger 10/22 should do fine for ya.

    Question for Firearms Experts

    Idontknow That was my first question to the orig poster...why? The shorter chamber is dead on, lenghten it looses some ability to lay a smack down on some paper or varmitts. I would stick with the .223 and go with the RRA if the need is there.

    Question for Firearms Experts

    Are you wanting to shoot 5.56 in your .223? Wylde chamber is a little shorter than the NATO chamber. (I am aware of at least 5 different chamber lengths for the .223/5.56, the NATO chamber being the longest). As far as accuracy goes, it probably won't have a great effect, particularly under...

    Good Sign

    I think I have this figured out.... The folks that say "We are not signning on any Sprinters or Cargo Vans" fail to tell the recruiters....That's why on Friday I hear this, then on Monday there is a parking lot full of Sprinters....

    Good Sign

    I've heard that in the past as well. Then two weeks later I arrive at home base there on a Monday- many Sprinters and a few cargo vans getting QC installed. Half income from last year tells me things are not that great anymore.... "wrong place at wrong time" can't be for this long of a period...

    Tipping

    Yes I tip for showers. Not every time, but I do tip. They have to put up with a lot. I tip for meals, every time. I start with my min tip of 1.00, depending on service it goes up never down. I saw a man and woman sitting with another driver, drinking coffee. The one driver stood up to leave and...
