I love going there. Not just because there's nothing but long loads coming out. I love driving to Eagle Pass, Del Rio, and Pharr. Those back roads are nice to drive on once in awhile. Just nice to not be in the same-ol. I know what you're talking about being not welcome. The two places there...

Well... I like the idea of an all Seahawk-blue truck. Just about everything I buy is blue anyways. All my clothes are blue. My computer is blue. I wear blue contacts. I dyed my teeth blue. My hair is blue and green. And I'm thinking of using Indian ink to turn my skin blue. Do engines come in...

All depends on how much your home team wants you out. I saw a couple today from the area, but ya gotta be quick... like Perfection, that crazy pop-up game from Hasbro. :P Laredo-Alabama and Abeline to Tennessee... both straight truck loads, but worth it for a t/t to get out IMO. Apparently you...

I noticed in the Laredo thread that you're in a van, currently. Are you thinking of going t/t (tractor/trailer)? No, I don't own my own truck, but I will soon (hopefully). "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

I failed to mention that's $700 for both tires. Just don't want anyone to think I paid that for one. LOL "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

I'm in a s/t with C&M. They only recently started putting on t/ts again, so I can't tell you much about how you'd do with my company. The good thing about Panther is you only sit as long as you want to, within the HOS. Find your own load, Panther takes 15%, and you're on your way. If I were in...

>The biggest plus is it collects taxes from drug dealers , prostitutes , >bookies , and others that let us bear the tax burden in the past . Let's not forget the "undocumented workers". "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Frankly, I don't think we're trying to win the hearts and minds of this generation, as much as the next. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

It depends on how much more or less, more or less ;) What is the rate at the smaller place and how many miles are they promising? One other thing. Do you run solo or team? With the flexibility the t/t gives you, and your ability to find your own freight with Panther, that might be your answer...

Ah yes... Woody Wilson. The same man who signed the 16th Amendment into law giving us an income tax, also gave away our Federal Reserve to a private entity. Most of us don't know the extent that institution serves, and we have no control over it. What a puppet that stooge was. Believe it or...

I've heard a lot of good things about him. I wish they had him on Sirius. Maybe it's worth getting XM too just to hear him. XM does have a slightly better truckers channel. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

CBA Tire in Taylor is a decent spot to get new tires. Granted, my nephew works there, and I got a small discount because of that. I'm not plugging them for that reason. LOL I'm plugging them because I had to change crap steers after 50,000 miles, and they charged less for Bridgestones than the...

I never liked the idea of a federal health care system. However, states doing it for themselves is what the Constitution was set up for. I'd really like to see California be successful here, not only for them, but for other states to follow suit. It's obvious that different parts of the country...

It really is "any given Sunday". The Hawks lost to the Bears by 30 in week four, but are only an 8.5 pt underdog to them this week. Several things factor in how a team does from week to week including injuries, previous week's performance affecting motivation, strategies, etc. That's why they...

Chet... what does Dave Ramsey accept for payment for his kit? I bet it's credit card only. ;) "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Companies usually get van loads at around $1.50/mi. Sometimes up to $1.75. Even then, this is only coming close to the flat .85/mi rate. If it were closer to 70%, I'd say that's more reasonable. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Sorry Brian, this was meant as a sarcastic thread. The Loading Dock is meant for jokes. Broompilot's reference to me was an ongoing inside joke. I apologize for any misunderstanding. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Tellico... I sent you a pm. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

No doubt! The Hawks and Colts musta been shopping the same D-mart! LOL Holding the Boys to one touchdown was an awesome feat!(helped in no small part by Romo's accuracy) :7 Especially seeing that our seconday was held together by Elmer's glue and two strips of scotch tape! LOL "If I claim to...

Congrats to Jay and all the Colts fans. They played a great game and shut down the Chiefs offense. Good luck against the Ravens! "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas
