    How much are fuel taxes and...

    some of that info should be on your fuel receipt... state fuel tax, road usage tax, federal tax, etc. If you want an individual breakdown on which states get what money from the fuel tax, that should be on your cab card.

    Help finding a good expedite Co. to work for

    You could try air freight. Running local with them, I doubt they care if you have a cdl or not. It's not the idea that his slate is clean in Dec 2004. They ask a question on the app : Have you ever had your license revoked or suspended. He lost his for two months. With his reason why, I doubt...

    Drive Your Foreign Car?

    Personally, I like Japanese cars, specifically Toyota and Honda. They are simply a better made vehicle than American cars. It shows in the price, and it shows in owner satisfaction. Keeping jobs in America depends on a few things... price and quality. Medical insurance for the UAW workers alone...

    Help finding a good expedite Co. to work for

    ouch... refusal of a breathalyzer is as good as a positive on one. I don't think you'll find any luck, though I wish you some.

    what companies hire non haz-mat cdl b drivers

    I know that Express-1 doesn't run hazmat. Most, if not all other companies do. If you find one, give em a call and ask if they have any owner operators who are in need of drivers... they'll point you in the right direction. I just noticed you're from Michigan. Express-1 is in Western Michigan.

    Drive Your Foreign Car?

    At the same time, Lawrence, Honda and Toyota are half made in the US. The job of the guy working on their line is just as important as the guy's on the Ford line. Another thing. I know it's not right to knock a donation, but $1-million from Ford and GM is like a businessman dropping a...

    Right Stuff.. Wrong Stuff...

    Hey... the Teletubbies are ok with me. Even if Tinky-Winky is gay. My daughter watches them all the time and nothing is wrong with her... except the nightmares of drowning in tubby custard ROFL :+

    John Kerry - Another Good Read.....

    Ok Road...here's what he's done. After 911, he's gotten Afghanistan and Pakistan to be our allies. After taking out Saddam, Iraq is our ally...but wait, there's more. Not only do you get the big oil rich country in the middle of the sandy Mid-east as our ally, as a bonus you have Yemen becoming...

    CDL'S and Driving Time

    I haven't driven for 4 years. Believe me, the first night driving my truck back home was crazy, but it's like riding a bike, ya never forget. By the second day, most of that weird feeling was gone, and I was back to the good ol driver I was. Have your hubby take you to a huge parking lot and...

    LDB...so you decided on Express-1, huh? Well, I'll be there with ya... I'm starting on the 27th as well. I'll be the tall guy with the Seahawks hat on and the FL106 in the parking lot.

    Thompson vs TST

    both do basically the same thing. It may come down to rate per mile for you, but I have one bit of experience with Thompson. The o/o I drove for and I went to their orientation, and they told us it's manditory the truck stays out every other weekend. That was way back in 96, so I don't know if...

    This may not be the Place but THIS HAS TO BE SAID

    RE: This may not be the Place but THIS HAS TO BE S Usually the loading dock is the place for off-topic stuff such as this. What good would it do blowing the place to hell? The whole reason we're over there for is to free a people. What would it look like if we indiscriminately went in and...

    Wee bit high on the price...

    I'm not trying to knock an advertiser here, only make an observation. Is it just me, or does Fyda seem to have higher prices than what's normal? Does their financing takes higher risk buyers; and, if so, is that the reason for their high prices? I don't know... maybe they have higher quality...

    Interested in getting into the buisness!!

    If you have no experience in expediting, you would be better off driving for a company or owner for awhile. If you'd rather stay local, there are several in the area such as PDQ in Taylor and REI in Romeo (both go out of state as well). If you want to be home all the time, pick them... or try...
