    Free agency and possible trades...

    Since so many have a lot of cap space, it looks like good players will be traded for premium compensation. Also, a lot of good players are being cut. I could see Plummer in a Bears uni. Whataya think, JR? Maybe Darrel Jackson? -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Bears, don't screw this up!!!

    Lovie is being paid 1.4 mil... among the lowest in the league. His team made it to the SB, which puts some of that responsibility on that coach for getting them there. Bears owners... if you don't think he's worth it, Matt Millen will probably be available next year. Lovie needs to go where he's...

    no cheap freight

    All depends on what you consider cheap. I put an expedite van load on last week to get me out of Nebraska. It wasn't discounted, just a smaller load than I usually take, and at van rate. No one got a break on that one. Now, taking something for less than .85 (LTL, not expedited) is something I...

    Mexican Trucks

    Do you honestly think that because they won't be allowed to do interstate, they won't? Illegals aren't "allowed" in our country. I say we all go tell them they aren't "allowed" to take our freight. Can you say new chapter in cheap freight? -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    OK to wear football jerseys when season is over?

    RE: OK to wear football jerseys when season is ove Sure it's ok! I have Shaun Alexander and Lofa Tatupu jerseys in the truck now. When sports is concerned, anything goes. When I lived in Chattanooga, I wore a Wendell Clark jersey (Toronto Maple Leafs). Got a lot of weird looks, but a few...

    RE: Going to be moving to Oxford, PA - what kind o We delivered once in Oxford. Nice town. Right down the road from the Flying J in Northeast, MD. You should have no problem getting out of there, or back home... depending on which company you're with. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely...

    need advise on something

    Jay, I shoulda been more specific. If you run independantly, a tractor is the way to go, solo or team. If you're with a company, it depends on that company... what their rules are, what their rates are, what they charge for trailer use, etc. There are so many variables to look at with companies...

    We Need Your Feedback Please!

    Larry/straight truck/C&M. It all depends how freight is moving in that area, where the next closest zone is, how many trucks are in the area, and my position among them. If I'm first out in Laredo, I'll give it a week. If I'm 5th out in NC, I might move toward KY after I drop, if no one is...

    need advise on something

    I met someone with a western star straight truck. The turning radius is attrocious! I've found my Int7500 is very good for turning. Cabover straights are also very good. The Col's Argosy turns on a dime. For income potential, stay in a t/t. Straights can't measure up (pun intended). "If I...

    Congrats on the great win, Jay!!!

    Beg to differ. Freeney has his spin move which was figured out last year. Step back, let him spin, then block him. I'm sure he's added some moves, and doesn't always spin, but he's not the same as he was two years ago. He's still good, just not as good. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely...

    Congrats on the great win, Jay!!!

    Word I'm hearing is Manning is wanting to restructure his contract to free up cap space. You may even be able to keep Freeney (tho I think he's overrated). "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Drivers Solutions and Expedite Solutions

    I haven't been with them, but I have an easier solution than going thru a school. Study the cdl book with your husband. Take your test to get your permit. Find an owner who understands you need to get your cdl. Have your husband train you. Go home and find a tester, using the same truck you've...

    LOL Night, I forgot about that one. He won the Mr Super Slooth Trucker award! Yeah... just take down your own post and disguise it as an "I knew you were lurking" thing. And you call us cowards? "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Kevin... obviously you don't know what humor is supposed to do. Yes, we chuckle at the circumstances of the ppl involved in the accident, because we realize how close it was to being fatal. We see Swifts in the ditch all the time and spout stuff like "it wasn't that hard to find a parking spot."...
