Seeing many just don't get this I will have to repeat what I said on another forum. 1 - Putin is calling the shots, not the president or anyone else. He is old world KGB, not the Berea style but the Brezhnev style KGB so he has that modern old soviet attitude when it comes to who says what...

Datastar? OK, I'll bite - what is it?

Wally, The favoritism is this; When you get to know a couple agents and do really good work for them, they will look for loads for you. I have one agent who calls me with every load that will fit on my truck regardless where I am at,sometimes it works out great..... sometimes not. This agent...

I do, actually it is the smallest straight truck in the entire fleet. The question is from a lurker, you know someone who is afraid to post but likes to read.

Layout, Off of Jefferson, where atwater and those streets were before the city 'cleared' them out, the original street level is four feet below the present level. It was raised up because of constent flooding and dock improvements and a big increase in the level because of the 1912/13 storms. I...

So to help someone out in lurker land...... if I sign on with panther with my d unit reefer, I would get 1.55 per mile on each and every load (or maybe more)?

I am not going to BS you; Landstar has a lot of good things, but in your present situation it would be a hard transition and it may not be what you want. First off there are few reefer trucks in the express fleet (shhh… state secret). I am one of them, I am under utilized to a point...

I am curious, that's $1.55 for all loads with reefers regardless if it is a reefer load or not?

True, there isn’t. No I’m not, I got what you are saying but you are dumping all kinds of people into the same box and saying they are all the same, no doubt. If there are no moderates, where is the proof of that? It shows making a blanket statement that you don’t know what you are...

It seems that the cost of a 5 litre jug is about €7.6 for Adblue, which is the trademark name. We will use DEF over here because I understand that the word Adblue is taken as a trademark here. I heard from DD that the one gallon jug will come in about $5 but that may change if there is...

Well the problem with Russia is that when the Soviet Union collapsed, we were not around. We celebrated, we cheered and than went home. We let them just fall and not really inspired them to clean up their society and put in place a real government. I know a few who left after the fall and a...

I didn't misunderstand, I get tired of the same old cr*p that shows any intolerance to any group. Blanket statements of about any group shows a lack of knowledge and in some cases a desperation to find one's self in the world. The truth is far from what Beeeemerr posted. Chef is close to a...

Well IRT, go change. Save you pennies, start collecting bottles and when you hit michigan, go get some of that good deposit money, start looking for a $15k tractor and change to an owner. Look I meant not day cab tractors, I mean small c and d units without sleepers. Sorry, should have been...

Well I thought you were hanging the sign out of the truck - will drive for diesel.

You both seem to fall for this propaganda. Sorry I am laughing at all of this. Let me explain it a bit differently. Chef there has a legitimate but partial incorrect concern. You are looking without putting things in true context, like no one is really speaking up about these issues when...

I have specific reasons to be concern with the idea of going down that path of domestic terror in the form of an all seeing/all knowing government. The point is that if we decide to go down that path of everything is done for our betterment, than we loss what we had. I see that with Obama and in...

But are you moving now?

The FedEx CC day cabs are local/regional drivers only. I ran into a bunch of them in Romeoville last year and they only take loads to the drop and head right back home.

Toledo? Oh yea that Mosque outside of Perrysburg? Well you don't sit next to the largest population outside of the middle east, I do and I got to tell you that you should come up to my neck of the woods some time. The article misses a few things, one is that almost every western religion...

Layout, The really sad thing is people seem to forget what the Soviet Union was all about. Many are clueless and other (younger people) don't or can't get a real education to know what it was like. So I would assume that many would not understand what the big deal is with Putin. The other...
