Uh, Moot - you already described the cheese, & it might be more power than even this situation calls for, lol. :+

Thanks, Terry - I'm hoping to take my 16 yr old daughter to New York City this summer, that's a great help. :)

RE: Not sure if this is the right question here, b The things you expect to haul, and the vehicle to haul them with, would be considered hotshot hauling, which is not the same as expediting. This site will tell you everything about expediting, and hotshothauling.com will tell you all about...

I used to enjoy taking Adult Ed classes on whatever subject interested me, but that's not possible anymore - they expect you to be home on Tues & Thurs evenings, lol. Now, I read Landline, & Expedite, & am planning to sign up for the seminars sponsored by EO, and I read whatever I can find, and...

RE: Ok what do you think will work to lower gas pr I haven't any suggestions on what to do about the price of oil - as Grogg said, if tax breaks are eliminated, they'll just be raised somewhere else. The corpolitical (that's a word I just created, because what's good for corporate is good for...

Funny how these threads wander away from the original thread, isn't it? I have zero experience with dispatch at FedEx, but common sense says that even when dispatchers actually have time to pick & choose among available vehicles, doing so would not be allowed. It could form the basis of...

Lou - (forgive me if I've asked this before) where do you find the time to find all this great stuff?! I won't comment on my sex life, but it sure had me pegged up until that one! This stuff is scary but I like it! :P

I keep the volume turned down to the lowest setting on the QC, because it's usually quiet in my van, & even when I'm expecting it - like when I've sent an empty call, the computer first sends me a layover, then a minute later it will send a message telling me to stand by for layover...

Reading that made my brain feel like scrambled eggs! :7

>Not sure what you mean by "sockets" Sockets are brass (?) fixtures, they look like backwards bookends, fit into the Etrack, & hold a board between them. You can use a 2x4, but I like the 2x6, or 2x8 - it works better than straps, I think. I also got a couple rings that snap into the Etrack...

RE: Drugs and a Truckers responsibility to be avai Of course Ted is proud of his son - after all, the younger Kennedy hasn't killed anyone. Yet. Not that that would cause him to quit "representing" the people....

If it's frozen Margaritas - just fill the blender with cubes - no need to figure! ;)

RE: Drugs and a Truckers responsibility to be avai Broom, I was steamed when I read that, too! The article I saw said "the officers on the scene were instructed by an officer above the rank of patrolman to take Mr. Kennedy home" - in spite of the fact that he "appeared intoxicated"!! The...

Leo, the point isn't to "get even, or have fun" - it's to tell the senders of unsolicited mail that we don't want it! And as long as they keep sending it, I'll keep returning it. (If the credit card companies think I'm having fun, I bet they quit sending it in a heartbeat!) Whatever it costs...

Well, being a solo with a 28" sleeper, I envy your 70"! Just kidding - it's enough room for me, & if I had nore room, I'd just have to take more stuff off the bed when I want to sleep, lol. Running team is a hard thing to do successfully - it's living and working together, which is a wee bit...

Dear Margaret, I don't think that God posts on this site, lol, but we do have lots of really smart & helpful people, like DaveKC, who will try to answer. The Qualcomm is something you will get familiar with in orientation, & no, it can't be heard outside your truck - but you can send a...

I like the sockets for Etrack, with a 2x6 or 2x8, both in front & behind the pallet(s) - it has held firm, even in a near-panic stop. I don't want to damage the freight, or my vehicle, or me either! I have at least 6 ratchet straps, but usually find the sockets & boards are enough - plus...

Hey Danny - I for one, have been running my wheels lately, instead of my mouth....(Or would that be my fingers?) It's been a nonstop 2 weeks for me, & I'm glad - also happy to read others' opinions, too. If you don't mind me asking - why are you thinking of being a part timer?

Somehow, it just doesn't seem fair that government entities can change the laws, not publicize the changes, and then collect money from individual drivers who were not aware of the revised law. And every state can do it - making it pretty near impossible to be law abiding. People who post of...

wow - can you really do yhat? (Put the 'NO POSTAGE REQUIRED" envelope on something else) I've been returning the envelopes for a couple years now, but that is soo cool - I have lots of stuff to get rid of, and lots of boxes, and no love for the USPS. This could be great! But have you actually...
