    Weird things happen in Iowa

    Well I was born in Iowa and after moving from there lived 14 miles away. Our main paper was the Des Moines register, Many friends were from there, I understand much more about Iowa than what the MSM tells people. The Iowa delegates make up about 1 percent of the nations total, not a big number.

    Weird things happen in Iowa

    The only thing Iowa accomplishes is deciding who gets funding to continue in the race. I never have understood all the hoopla around Iowa.

    Van went in the shop first thing this morning. When I left they were removing the front clip so the engine could be removed. Should have it back late next week.

    FedEx confused

    It is not anything I would let sway my opinion. Basically in the expedite world everyone uses other companies fairly often. I have been with 3 companies and think I have ran Fedx loads with all of them.

    It is just self promotion and has nothing to do with politics. Just keeping his large ego in the news.

    You want to edit it in a very basic text program like word pad or notepad. Some text programs like ms word can sometimes use funky behind the scenes codes for apostrophes and that type of the. When a person copies and pastes from those at times the coding in the new space does not recognize...

    Why Do You Have To Have A CDL To Drive A Cargo Van With No Hazmat On Board ?

    Right, a cdl will make them more professional than speeding, tailgating, semi drivers who toss their pee bottle and trash on the ground in the parking lot. That is if they bother to use a bottle at all. ;) A cdl has nothing to do with a professional attitude it is the person that makes that...

    Why Do You Have To Have A CDL To Drive A Cargo Van With No Hazmat On Board ?

    It is just a company policy some places. No different than some businesses will not interview a person without a college degree even though in reality the job does not require one. Not all expedite companies require it I think Panther even dropped the need for one not very long ago.

    Just ordered a replacement engine for the sprinter. I went with a used one, there are a ton of reasons to go with a factory remanned but about 5,000 reasons that made me go used. Hope to be back on the road after the first week of January as I know the holidays will slow things up a bit.

    Thanks E.O.

    I will never understanding peoples reactions to what they say is unsolicited email. They will waste time and energy getting upset, stressing and typing things about how much it bothers them when the delete button takes about a second.
