They just had a thing on Thompson on Nightline. They have the nerve to say Thompson's shortcomings are that he had a lackluster Senate career, and that he'll need to work harder? What the hell has Osama Obama done? Besides running her suck, what has Hillary done? And of course they're media...

Col... forgot to ask you before. What kind of tree do you carry in your box? ;) BTW... did you see the FL cabover with a 26' curtainside in truckpaper? Sharp looking truck for a 94. Looks more like a newer Argosy. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

Like I said in another post... if we demand a rate increase, others will do it for less and less. There are too many morons out there thinking as long as something's on their truck they're making money. Some of the problem is the OTR o/os used to making .85/mi and coming over thinking 1.15 is a...

If every company could keep you loaded the same as every other company, no one would need to move. Yes! Sometimes the grass IS greener. Landstar is a very good system if you're pro-active (I hate that word). It's as close to being independant as you can get without getting your own authority...

Ya know the paintings of sleigh rides, hundreds skating on the town's river, carolling. No commercials = little commercialism. Strangers and friends alike just enjoying life together. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

My opinion is the flames on the bunk are enough. Or if you brought them all the way from the front. Four sets of flames on each side are overkill IMO. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

I liked Christmas better as a kid too. Wish I could've experienced it around the turn of the century... 1900. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

RE: No jobs for US citizens without Homeland Secur I think the identity theft crisis is taking care of itself. When companies lose money, things start happening. All the government needs to do is uphold the laws punishing the ppl who steal identities. Less talk, more action. Why should I have...

Gotta agree with Leo's point about insurance. It costs just as much to insure a 53' as a 28' but with less potential for revenue in the pup. Personally, I see a niche that needs to be filled with a shorter trailer when big ones are overkill and straights don't cut it. I too am surprised no one...

RE: No jobs for US citizens without Homeland Secur But mine did it legally, as have 99% of the others (current illegals not counted). Nobody does a damm thing in Washington unless it's a dire emergency, or they're getting paid off. You can say the same of state governments as well. 911...

Better watch what you're saying. Big Brother is watching! -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

RE: No jobs for US citizens without Homeland Secur If our GOVERNMENT would do their JOB and keep ppl out that SHOULDN'T BE HERE, we'd have no need for a federal ID card... or a Department of Homeland Security, for that matter. Comes down to our government dropping the ball and us paying for it...

RE: No jobs for US citizens without Homeland Secur Goosestep anyone? Can you say "papaz pleeze?" -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

They speak English, they're just ignorant about it. Just like the no-abla wetbacks. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

Tallcal surprised me as well. BTW, Fred Thompson is only 64. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

There's been talk about that set up before. We referred to it as a "Super D" unit. I was that close to trying it myself. Several ppl mentioned FXCC had one or two of these trucks on. Landstar was another one that would probably take them. I've never driven pups before, but was told they're...

Broom... If you say you talked to your stock broker, I would have to assume you're investing, or thinking of doing so. If someone says they're talking to their fertility consultant, couldn't you assume they're trying to get pregnant? -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

I know better, yes. I have many ways to find the shipper/consignee. And the dispatch I work with will bust their butts to get me in the right door. When all else fails, ask the locals. I've even had to guess. I refuse to be helpless out there. But not everyone does know. And from experience...

That's what I'm getting at... "We have directions, but it's not our fault if they're wrong." To me, that's not a very stable business relationship. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

I don't have a gps, but I use mapquest. If that fails, I call the customer. Yes, it is in the best interest of the drivers to have what technology is available to get the freight there on time. But you can't call them ultimately responsible if they get bad scoop from their company. Sorry for...
