    Just Curious...who is for Obama?

    I feel this way because he is not standing up and making it a point that the political campaign is not about race but welcoming the criticizes of others within his campaign and the media when someone questions or criticizes him. His staff seems to be the first to spin comments that others make...

    Fleet Owner Blues

    Here is a bit of advice, maybe it is not good advice but I would just stick to the FedEx Ground for now and if I would have to, branch out to maybe UPS. These things you know, you already are making money in them, why kill yourself over this business and enter at the worst possible time?

    new dispatch system @ the fed

    You know this really does not sound all that good when you really think about it. It leaves a gap with too much ambiguity during that acceptance time and actually I don't see the time gap with the load offers when dispatch is selective. I think Dave eluded to something that I think would force...

    Food For Thought Or How Do You Want Your Goat Grilled

    Actually T-Hawk, I would not say harmony but a co-existence was there. I think that the modern change goes back to the Turks and the Armenian mass killings and exacerbated by the British in post WW1 Arabia when the peninsula was divided up. But Turtle, I think David is closer to the...

    Just Curious...who is for Obama?

    OK here is my take on this, and I know you all waited for it J Of course not, I will not vote for Obama, I don’t vote for racist people First off I don’t trust anyone who comes from Chicago political machine, and he does. He is the status quo as they come, he had to compromise...

    new dispatch system @ the fed

    So let me get this straight.... A load is created by FedEx, then the 'computer' sends it to three trucks at the same time? Is that right?

    MBE 900 Misfiring

    Piper may confirm this but I thought that there was a way to put the ECM in to a diag mode and do a cylinder balance test.

    GM 4500 Cargo Van

    What I think is funny is that these will not be under 10k but be like the E450 and E550, which came in configurations up to 19k. Logging, it is not a van. It is a truck in compact configuration. Beside what triggered this is the sale of the GM's medium duty truck line to navistar. They can...

    Glenn Beck Interviews A Fleet Owner

    I too watched it and I agree DD. 87 cents and he's complaining? If Beck was to interview an independent owner with one truck I think that would have been a better story, not a fleet owner under contract hauling dairy or eggs on a regular basis.

    chrysler plant closing

    The reason this is News IS that they are shutting down the entire company down, not just the lines.

    is it this slow everywhere?

    Slow? I keep getting offers like this; "I got two skids picking up in an hour, your 45 miles away going to Mobile Alabama by tomorrow morning, 790 miles, it pays $1.45 a mile, can you do it? " "I can do it if the deliver is tomorrow night." "What, you are a 14 foot truck?" "yes I am a 14...

    create your own

    Leo, I could not get anything to work maybe it is me but I am going to throw in this - I had a physics class where the prof was so involved them, he had all of use make them to pass the class. I would recommend that if you home school your kids or even if you don't, it is a great thing to teach.

    Could there be better people

    that would represent a minority who can run for president? I mean I am reading about David Paterson who will be taking over as governor of NY, get this, contingent on approval of Spitzer. Well anyway, I say there are people in the Dems'crat party who would make good leaders, maybe we will...

    Male Truckers Have 10-15 yr shorter Life Span

    Well what great timing to read this. As I finish my double meat Whopper with extra cheese and mayo and super king size fries with gobs of ketchup on them washing it down with a diet coke, it makes me wonder what the real problem could be, maybe diesel fumes?

    Dems are just sad...

    I too am utterly disgusted with the whole thing, why do you think I'm trying to get people to think instead of listening to someone saying "I understand what you are going through, I will help" just to get a vote. The primary should not be in front of the American voter, the parties have to...

    mbe 900 oil pressure fluctuation

    Yep Unimog is German, MB to be exact. It belongs to the euro military medium duty truck group, like a Pinzgauer, Volvo Valp and 303 and GAZ. Just a little more versitel. The Pinzgauer uses the Duetz if I remember right. I think that a lot of compressors also use them. I forgot Duetz had...
