I think the problem is Panther's dispatchers. Even though Livingston is a pain in the a** the processing time is not really long, especially with an established customer like Frieghtliner or D-C. I was at Livingston a while ago and the turnaround time with me standing there being ignore was...

I don't own a Mac but I wonder what software are you going to use with yours while on the road?

OK, I am rewriting my post. I have to ask, did the sleeper come with the microwave and inverter?

As in the IT industry, where there is a slow down, specialized services seem to be a luxury instead of the norm and companies tend to look at cutting cost in projects to bring it to a completion.

....in this credit crisis You know I can not believe there is a credit crisis because I just got a call telling me I am approved for another home equity loan for $30,000 at 6% fixed and I can pick up the check this afternoon. I am not going through with it but I did it to see if I can. I did...

“Well your darn right,the Iraqi's are gosh darn scared about losing U.S. investment in their country.To that point,some in Congress are asking about the "lost billions"at the same time.Fat cat Iraqi's who are continuing to live like Kings in Europe will REALLY miss the good old days of the...

"Your complaint should be with the Michigan authorities who agreed to Republic's contract." Rob, yes that is who I blame, I don't blame Canada or Toronto but the people who are elected here. But from what I understand Toronto did tenitive agree with the senators from Michigan to reduce the...

Problem number one with cruise control and newer trucks, the engine manufacture programs the engine to produce more power when cruise is engaged, hence more fuel is burned. Problem number two is the fuel savings devices, how many really work or seem to work. Even though no one has tested them...

Hate you again? Tallcal, never any hate from this end of the keyboard.

When I was using IdleAire and not in the desert, I would crank it up around 12 or 1 pm and turn it off around 11 at night. In the desert, I would run it from 9 am and turn it off at 1 am - off for 8 hours. I never ran it 24 hours except when I got really sick out there and didn't care at that point.

Broom, I was going to write a nice post but decided to focus on one thing - taxes. For some reason people don't get that our present tax system actually came from the Communist Manifesto and needs to be changed. The tax system was changed in the 30's to punish the people who are successful...

"How could we the U.S. Benefit? Why would some think this could work?" There is no direct benefit unless we were in charge and we eliminate the UN completely. Outside of that, we are already fighting things like open trade, open borders and as Leo pointed out that we would be "ceding far too...

Moot, that makes sense. I can see where it all falls into place but it is sad Panther has such a poor policy ... or are they all like this?

"I thought they had a vote on that garbage?? sometime last year when the contract came up for renewal. And then Mi just increased the fee. Maybe people did vote it down but was subject to your Gov's veto?? You'd have to research that more." We don't vote on anything that has to do with that...

Oh come on, I read this comment and thought no way – “Marion Jones angrily denied using steroids. On Friday, she admitted it was all a lie.†OK if this is really true, she don't need to apologize, she needs to pay us, the US tax payer back for the money we spent on her and her training...

Terry, It seems I end up spending on the last trip into and out of Canada for phone calls $4.00. This includes the calls I make to my wife - 2 calls and the one to FedEx to setup the ACE. I try to explain to my wife not to call me if I am in Canada but she sometimes has to tell me some thing...

Oh come on, prof. Safety is a real issue and no doubt that it needs to be discussed for all, not just for women but my pun was based on A-Team's complaint that some posts involve duplicates and need to be regulated which led to a rather lengthy and involved thread over content regulation...

OK I got to ask this, why does a customer tell the carrier how many miles that is from one location to another when they are being quoted a job?

But Phil you forgot to mention that if the Canadian dollar rises against the US dollar too much, the export of Canadian goods to the US and possibly to other countries may be reduced in the next two quarters, putting Canada into another financial problem. But if we invade Canada, we won't have...
