Dawgone... I thank you for proving me wrong. I could see you having a sticker AND be DOT qualified. Hope you're doing well now. I'm just trying to clarify the need for handicapped spaces in truck stops vs. car parking lots. I doubt there are many truckers who need them, yet I usually see 4...

Hidden message to me is, the immigrants aren't happy like they were when they first came here. Now they're talking about unions? For illegals? geez

I'm going over the figures FX put out for solos. 117505 miles 155 loads taken That averages out to 758.1 miles per run, both loaded and empty. Something doesn't seem right. Either the loads are way too long for solos to do legally, which I doubt. There is a ton of dh involved with each and every...

>How many look for their own loads? I did run independent for awhile. There may be a time where I decide to do it again. >How often do you look? I still look every time I'm sitting somewhere I have little hope of getting out soon... ie, Texas. >How much time should i give dispatch to find a...

Have no probs with drivers having a handicap. My problem is with there being handicap parking spots in a truckstop. With the shortage of places to park, why have areas we can't use when tired? I'm trying to think of actual handicaps a trucker could have, that would deem it necessary to have a...

I haven't been to Canada in a truck for nearly a year. I miss it to a point. Toronto is a pain, but there's a smokehouse on 401 near Woodstock that just makes me melt. I miss the truckstops, the ppl, and just the country in general. Kinda feel lucky I married a Canuckian and can get back there...

I thought the Canadian forum was working well for border crossing info.

Well... you answered my question then, Lawrence. Thanx :) Haha Greg... too slow :7

MA... gotta say this. When I read your posts, I'm hearing Hank Hill say the words. :7

I'm not a van driver, nor do I own vans. I have seen owners post for drivers on here from anywhere between 40%-no fuel to 70% with. 40/60 and 60/40 is the going rate for d-units, I know. But wouldn't you think it's a little low for vans? Being that vans probably avg around $1000/week, that's...

Pantherii... try 5-pin bowling. Wife says there's a lot of boating stuff around then. Windsor Raceway is a nice track with slots.

Rain-X would be the stuff you're lookin fer.

There's no rule saying you have to have DOT numbers on a truck. You only have to if it's commercial. If you're doing personal things with the truck, then it's not commercial. If I'm not mistaken, liability covers it in case it's being utilized for non-commercial use.

In the q&a section at the bottom of the ad, he believes it'll bring around 15k

From my experience, we went from MI to OH to pick up some chairs for my uncle. I called Panther to ask them about it. They told us to cover up the DOT numbers with a piece of cardboard that read "Not for Hire". They also told us to log it driving time. I believe the logging was just their...

Piddiddle or Popeye I've heard it called. Don't think it's a regional thing... just weird. LOL

I'm not far behind you, Highway... I'm 2x ;)

Just like it's hard finding an honest owner, it's hard to find a good driver. MA... I believe I understand what you're saying. If he's wanting YOUR financial info, and not just a copy of the settlements, that sounds weird to me. If it's just the settlements he wants, nothing wrong with that...

Not sure. If you start pulling over fat ppl cause they look like they didn't pass a DOT physical; that's sort of like pulling over a black man cause it looks like he's hiding something. I think it boils down to not enough of the doctors who do DOT physicals are legit. But I also think DOT sets...
