I don't know why I am even posting anything. Maybe I believe that you can post things more useful like you did the other day. Yea it was still a stab at me but I and others learned something. Maybe you got to get a life dude, I mean relax and take it easy, retire and move somewhere where there...

I think there are scary ones too..... I know what he is getting at but there is to down play these countries gives the leaders more power to convince their people that we are evil or stupid or evilly stupid. AND Sorry about this one obama supporters but if he was really serious over the...

Well as I am a captive audience to anyone who walks by and asks what's wrong, one guy asked me what isn't my reefer unit vented and I told him no. But that leads me to a rather uninformed question, what is the reason to vent a reefer and why would I want to do that with my straight truck? Oh...

It is time to remove that thing they call a juvi justice system, let's know who they are and stop playing games with kids who do adult crimes. The cops can't do a thing?

Just wait, Ford is offering to buy out white collar workers and will be doing the same for some blue collars' soon. Chrysler is also doing the employee shuffle, my wife has a freind whose husband is not allowed to retire until they announce the buyouts for his plant. She figures they will end...

I agree, but you can put him in almost any cell and he will not come out alive. I got a cousin who worked for the California department of corrections. Her job was to interview the nut cases like Manson and Sirhan. The last time I saw her, she mentioned that a lot of the people in prison...

Don't panic Don't park in a bad area Don't panic because you have a flat and parked in a bad area And don't panic because of the good size bill for road service you will get I am sitting here in Dallas, somewhere in Dallas with a flat tire thanks to the many others who had blow outs with...

Because we are sovereign countries and in order for us to reach the point of open borders with trade, we have to give some of that up which happened in Europe. They have been working on this problem since the 50's and they are small enough to make it work to a point and they never, not one...

Well that's the point, sorry I am not clear on things..... You get it regardless. It is nice but... Now I haven't heard that they did this since I left but it helped a lot when there was that extra $20 or so tacked on to the bottom line. See Phil can point to the cost of fuel but being a CR...

Think Gas is High? Try Europe By Bruce Crumley/Paris – Time International American motorists are understandably grumbling over skyrocketing gas prices as the summer travel season approaches. But their pain hardly registers against the rage afoot in Europe these days. Fishermen, truck...

Wellllll..... not really. The thing is when you have a reefer on your truck (CR/DR unit), you get the top FSC adjustment under the FedEx system whether the thing is being used or even if it is working. I am wondering if they will bring this down to the C/D unit level to save even more money.

I am wondering if they are also going to reduce or adjust the reefer FSC to be the same as the non-reefer trucks (C/D trucks)? It would only make sense to do that.

Landstar only allows you to find loads on their boards. For a van it is sometimes fruitless, but for a truck with 15k capacity, there is a lot of work out there. For us little trucks, well it is a struggle ;)

Now I am trying to figure this out, rising fuel cost are one thing and should not affect an increase in parts enough to figure out how to pass the increase on parts to the customer, the operation of the truck should not be passed onto the customer but be part of your operating expenses. The best...

OVM, there are better solutions. But first remember that all wars are fought with the result of two things (in reality), technology advancement and energy. The social implications are truly the reason we go to war but fighting is another matter. If we had or will have a president that had...

Expediting is a lot different, it is sometimes frustrating and other times rewarding with the balance in favor of frustrating. You will undoubtedly hear some terrific points from others but I way on the negative side because this is not the time to get into this at all unless you have a bunch...

OH...... I thought about this last night when I was getting ready for bed and I remember that I would complain about DH'ing to a location like Moab from Denver to make a pickup that delivers to SF without any compensation more than the small amount of DH pay. They would charge the customer a...

Now you know I am more confused, they been paying to relocate Reefer units?

FedEx is the way to go, had a lot of things shipped to me when I was in California. About scripts, if you can see if you meds can be changed for the $4 meds at walmart, and go for it. I learned a hard lesson with statins (lipitor and alike) that some stores/clubs made deals with other...

So was I. As harsh as this will sound, I don't care about the idiot who gets drunk and behind the wheel - there is no excuse for it. I want to stop him/her before something happens not after. The law is supposed to also deter people. I feel the driving laws are so lax that they allow people...
