    Propane in the truck

    I used one. Thing is to have a window cracked about three inches. Now, on a cold, windy night, that's more likely to make the truck colder. And honestly, the heater makes some difference, but not much. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    how much can a team make /week

    It wasn't for lack of us being in the truck. Simple fact of the matter is, when the runs pay nothing, the drivers make nothing. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Colonel... so apparently you've found better paying runs since last we met? "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    When I am wrong I would like to Fess up.

    How can it be wrong to post your experiences? All the ppl in the world could say they've had great service with a Pro-heat, but you're the one that matters in this case. I too would say it's a crappy item if I had as much grief as you've had with yours. So to say you're wrong is... ummm...

    Finding your own loads

    Because if something would've happened on the way to Denver, Panther would've rightly said they had nothing to do with the load, and the driver is SOL! Are you sure you're an expediter? "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Are you true owner operator? with FCC

    Hate to sound like Phoenix on Mystery Men, but here goes. True independence can only be gained if you're trully independant. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Rich... when you say you ALSO have this truck, what's your other truck? "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Let's hear some talk about fantasy football! Where do you play? What are some of your strategies? War stories. Anything goes! "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    Get our soldiers home AND solve the illegals prob?

    RE: Get our soldiers home AND solve the illegals p We could also force them to build a wall! Many say that's slave labor, but I point to chain gangs to counter this. Hell... we could give them minimum wage even. There are enough illegals here taking all the construction jobs none of us...

    I only hang with Sheepdogs...

    Yep... it worked for Cuba too. When Castro took over, he confiscated all private firearms. We all know how happy Cubans are. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    A Really Cool Run

    That scenario would cause me to think a contract has been broken. You are given a BOL, which is signed, thus making a contract. You're contracted to do so many miles, and thus be paid for those miles. If they change their minds midway thru the load, shouldn't you be paid for what was agreed upon...

    Mexico freight??? here we go.....

    Bob, that's all well and good, being a Canadian. You can pick up in Miami and deliver to Toronto, as can we. There's a bit of a mismatch of American v Canadian miles there, but it's something most of us agree that's good for both countries. Being that the US is the "meat" in the middle of the...

    Feeling a little stupid about CA speed limit......

    RE: Feeling a little stupid about CA speed limit.. Very simple. The idea is that more axles = more weight. I hear what you're saying about the extra braking power, but that's also the potential for 20k more weight. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

    the expeditor franchise

    From what I gather from their site, it's easier getting a SBA loan when getting into a franchise. It all depends on what their piece of the pie would be. But something like that looks like you'd be finding your own customers, rather than looking for loads on a board. Not a bad concept, tho I...

    My first D.O.T. Inspection....not good

    Broom, I beg to differ. There isn't always a reason on our part a cop or DOT is a jerk, sometimes they grow into it. And, NO, there's no excuse they should act cruelly if unprovoked. Aren't they professionals themselves? Even moreso, they're supposed to protect and SERVE. "If I claim to be a...

    I have to admit, I had my doubts as far as interest in a sports forum on EO. Glad it happened! :D
