I was talking to a sprinter owner last night and he got dinged with an over weight ticket (warning) here in Michigan for being 40 plus lbs over. He was hauling 3 pallets that were 2821 lbs (as weighed before it was placed on the van) and his GVW is 8660 lbs - meaning with the generator (onan)...

Well I am offended, it is not I am apologizing or justifying his actions, it is I am pointing out facts. From Wilson on, all Presidents have done something to spy on the people with the worst coming from Democratic administrations. Wilson, FDR, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson all did to spy on their...

With the pending case in front of the Supreme Court with the question whether Texas can execute an Mexixcan national or they have to do what the world court decision, it brings up an interesting issue over the rights of the state vs. the control of the federal government over other issues like...

" Hooligan, the Constitution would not allow the government to spy on us - but the current administration doesn't give a rat's behind for anything, including the Constitution, that might obstruct their desires" Cheri, Every administration has done this in some form or another, there was a lot...

What? Putting Ducks in a truck as a team to reach your financial goals?

Phil, You made a very good point but I am wondering about the New Jersey thing. Maybe I am not privy to how my accountant handles my millions but I never heard him mention Jersey except not to buy a truck there or bet too much at AC.

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Phil, Actually you are making my point. To me it don't matter what you have on your truck and whether you are comfortable or not. What matters is the ability to function in an industry where the rates are going down all the time, the...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Wow Mike, I missed that. Great question!

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Yes

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Teamcaffee, I do agree that you will get a lot smarter owners out there but I don't agree that the large apartment on wheels could be the norm for the successful owners. I can do all the same things you mentioned in my sleeper that one can do...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening What? Phil you just figured this out. I see in the future that freight prices will drop more and the serious people with the lower overhead and smaller truck payments will be the survivors out of a real recession, the ones who can still...

huh? Samer theory? Many of the studies that have proved that putting tinfoil on your head to protect you brain from cell phone radiation is useless and not friendly to the environment (all that tin foil being used). The only problem is many of the studies are paid for by the cell phone...

It is a small children's charity out of Flint. I just talked to them and they want me to put together some sort of promotion plan and do the leg work for them, so if it happens I will post the website and the info. Tickets will be set at $15 each at this point but may increase to $20 if they...

Dreamer, This is not new. Reminds me of NAZI Germany or the living in the Soviet Union during the 30's - using children for a political reason.

I should have posted this in the newbie section. I am going down this path because of all the money I'm making and because of the state's new taxes that they are planning retroactive. I already talked to my accountant and already have the plan in motion but because it sometimes is a good...

This may have been covered before but I am going to throw it out there anyway. For fleet owners it is a given, but for the single truck owners I am wondering how many of you are incorporated and if you are, what state did you decide to incorporate in?

Well my age and stress is getting to me, so I don't even remember .... never mind, I forgot what I was saying.

RE: BOA 3Q Profit Falls 32 Pct Oct-18-07 Now I am forced to be a BoA customer - they bought out my back and since 1993 I have been a customer of 12 banks and everyone has been bought out by another.

Well Phil is the exception to the norm, he's special. :+ But seriously, I am glad he is doing well and he is 100% right when he said "Higher speed limits offer no time savings for us. We almost never drive faster than 65. 60 and 55 is just fine with us. We save money by saving fuel." It is...
