I was reading a recent issue of "Tow Truck Journal" [did I ever mention I'm a compulsive reader?] yesterday, while waiting for the guys to fix the AC in the truck. While they were calling parts stores & dealers to find a part, I read of a new site to locate truck parts: Heavy Duty Truck Parts...

When I was a cargo van O/O, I hauled placarded hazmat. Yes, there was a bulkhead in the van, and the shipper provided the MSDS [and the placards].

Arizona has long had a reputation for attracting folks whose viewpoints are somewhat, um....out there? Especially the healing through crystals and defining character by the color of one's aura [which only they can see] bunch. The current whacko is Representative Trent Franks, whose latest...

There's a really good reason Domino's quit promising to deliver in 20 minutes or it's free: pushing drivers to meet unreasonable deadlines is an accident waiting to happen. If the resulting accident is minor, only the driver gets blamed, but wise carriers & dispatchers are aware that a major...

They're hidden behind the sledgehammer that you're permitted to use only once. And don't get too excited when Lawrence promises your own dedicated parking spot - it's on top of the 'Florence, y'all' tower, lol. Welcome to the fun! ;)

Audiobooks of less than 12 hours aren't worth downloading. Where others see a cargo van, you see a ladder. ;)

Wait - you brag about 'cheating the man' [on taxes], but get all hyper when someone else uses a different scam with the same goal? Cheer up - won't be long before white English speaking folks are a minority.....

Maybe it's necessary to 'exchange' ID badges for towels.... If it were up to me, I'd terminate the lowlifes who don't appreciate being able to afford to buy their own dam towels - they don't deserve the nice environment.

Can make coffee without getting out of bed. Are not just willing to do without the bed to increase load space, but can break it down in 3 minutes flat. Layover in Memphis while parked in Mississippi or Arkansas. Know at least one of the cargo van drivers parked at every truckstop, wherever you go.

When you finish the enforced team time, we should do a thread on 'Horrors: worst codrivers ever!' I have a few nominations, too, but we better wait until they can't 'accidentally' leave you at a WalMart somewhere, lol. ;)

2 codrivers?! How does that work? :eek: I wish you all the luck in the world, as I've never been able to tolerate even one [and vice versa, no doubt] for much more than a month, lol.

As American officials can't afford to provide for taxpayers, I think illegals should have a choice of getting legal or getting out. If I can't break the law with impunity, neither should they be allowed to do it. Those anchor babies are dragging us deeper underwater, when we're already drowning...

The push for team drivers has been intensified by two things: loss of the split sleeper provision, and detention. Combined, those factors can put solos in the position of choosing which method of economic suicide they prefer: the certainty of informing dispatch that direct delivery is...
