Is that why money is sometimes referred to as 'lettuce'? ;)

RE: The Bridge Tolls are RE: is yours up or down I can see Linder's point about saving money, but still - don't you have to pay for the number of axles on the truck, regardless of whether you're using the tag at the time of crossing? I have learned to check too, that I don't get charged as a...

Seems to me, selling a vehicle says nothing about how much a carrier values the vehicle, and everything about how much the current vehicle's owner values it. My guess is there are many more straight trucks offered for sale because the perceived market for them is greater. Or because fleet...

This is one area where we of the female persuasion may see it differently: I don't want to advertise to strangers the fact that I'm alone - I don't even pile stuff on the passenger seat. (Well, not too much stuff, lol)

Wingnut: THAT's what I think of as the spirit of Christmas! Not finding ways to profit from, or be offensive to, your fellow man, but to share the many joys of the season. Wish I could join in, but I'm in Louisville, so it's not likely. Hope you have a very merry time!:)

Hawk, that was Obamanable!:P

Rmctt2: I hope you don't really believe that posters are trashing people who want to get into expediting in a van, because they're most definitely not. What they are trying to point out is that the market for vans is already at the saturation level, and many current o/o's and drivers are barely...

I didn't join, because I was not impressed with what I saw at the Expedite Expo last July. The quote by Ellen Voie (sp?) still has me scratching my head: "Our goal is threefold: to encourage more women to consider trucking as a career, to remove obstacles that prohibit women from entering the...

I put 'google eyes' on my van - but I don't believe Freud had anything to say about whimsy, fortunately. Those who are overreacting to the 'low self esteem' suggestion don't seem to get the difference between taking pride in your ride, & being an obnoxious showoff.

RE: Florence Y Careful there, Unorthodox - you can refer to anatomical body parts with impunity here, but "late" is a four letter word to expediters...;)

First thing, Bee: welcome to EO! Second thing: this is the Tech Forum, for technology - the Forum you want is Truck Topics. Third thing: before posting on Truck Topics, please read the threads, because your issue sounds similar to some that are currently posted. Good luck, hope you get it resolved.

You made me laugh, too, because if you're driving junk, it aint Panther's junk!

It hasn't been a great week for me, either - or even a good one. Delivered in Sidney, Oh, last Monday, DH home to Cleveland Tues evening, to renew CDL on Wed, have been waiting in service ever since... It may be that I've been passed over for possible loads, due to the fact that I need to head...

You know, I never quite got the connection between telling a child his behavior is unacceptable (in school or otherwise) and "damaging" his self esteem - how can he esteem himself, if he isn't meeting accepted standards, whether academic or behavioral? Those who mutter imprecations behind...

Until someone hangs a pair of beach balls off theirs...:P

Creativity & jimjams sounds a lot better than creativity & celery - but that's cause I'm not a skinny chick, I guess. Bonus points for Mouton! ;)

Maybe he could get a gig delivering Depends to RV parks & NASA bases

Poison, if you will reread the comment, it says "a small penis or low self esteem", and it's pretty much an accepted fact that the showoffs & braggarts have low self esteem, I believe. And people can only put you in a category if you let them, you know - why let someone else define who you are?

Would we get a discount for wearing sunglasses? ;)

Wouldn't the question be answered more knowledgeably by recruiters at Landstar, rather than the BCO's?
