    Saying "no" to cheap freight!!

    Re: Saying "no" to cheap freight!! davekc: "Sins of the past are what drives much of what we see now..." OVM: " checks and balances in the system.." Excellent points and totally agree! Looking at a much larger picture, I believe those are pretty much sum up why it is what...

    Went thru Des Moines early this morning, -2 degrees. Rolled the window down to feel how cold it is outside. Didn't realize that when you're moving at 60 mph, the wind chill effects dropped the temp to around -40 F. Now I've got to make a u turn to look for my left ear....somewhere on I 80...

    It's a horrifying cold! Guys, make sure you stay warm and well protected when you are outside. Lots of accidental vasectomies have been reported around this time of the year, LOL.

    Just crossed over into IL from IN on I 70 heading west toward KC. Strong winds alright, I'm driving a "barn door" Nissan NV. Will pull over if I feel the wind is on the winning side, lol.

    How's about that! Was going to get fuel up at Pilot off I 35 in Clear Lake IA, but went into Kum & Go instead. Wow! All employees wore tie. Reminded me the old classical day of the '60, I really like it. Hmmmm..May be we should be wearing the suit and tie too eh? LOL.

    Sprinter?? Transit?? Diesel?? Gas??

    I read it somewhere on the internet that the expeditor drivers are the most sexiest people. So in won't matter if you are in an ugly van:) "Hey, good lookin!" That's what you'll hear from the car next to you every time you are at the stop light. And, I'm pretty sure the other person is not...

    Promaster Owners

    Very impressive! Saw one late Saturday night just south of Sioux City on I 29. It was snowing quite heavy at the time and the snow plow trucks weren't fast enough to clear both lanes. There must have been at least 5 inches build up on the fast lane which most drivers avoided. I was...

    Sprinter?? Transit?? Diesel?? Gas??

    I went for the Nissan NV Hi Roof for the above reason. When you open up the hood, the engine compartment is so big, you can put a ping pong table in here, lol. Now, I know Nissan's cargo space is a big issue for many expeditors. But for me, it works fine:)

    Monster Winter Storm to Hit Northeast Mon. and Tue.

    So much for Yahoo weather radar, the app shows clear sky in Dublin GA. There are low clouds everywhere with 20 mph winds. I might as well use my own "gut" radar to predict, it's going to rain hard, lol.
