Adding to the 16-18% real unemployment is the fact that just about everyone has taken massive cuts to their income, even if they still have a job. Barry is trying to convince you that he's done a wonderful job and everything is improving fantastically. We all know it just isn't true.

That's the point I was trying to make. Actually, I think all the words in a sentence are important or it's just nonsense. Right?

We've NEVER taken a LOAD for less THAN $0.90 a mile AND never plan to. But then AGAIN, we run a LOT MORE miles than that. Good LUCK!

Try Google. I see this out there: http://www.ripoffreport.com/employment-services/a-plus-expediting-lo/a-plus-expediting-logistics-985f9.htm http://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/query.asp?searchtype=ANY&query_type=queryCarrierSnapshot&query_param=MC_MX&query_string=641074&Go.x=13&Go.y=8...

I was told by a Michigan State Police officer that the law "is nothing can obstruct the view through the area of the windshield that is swept by the windshield wipers", which makes sense to me.

No, the info on the 2005-06 is incorrect. Our 2006 is 9,900 GVW. No option for 10,200 UNLESS it is a cab/chassis, which was 10,200 GVW.

Yes, it is a commercial 48 state policy and my agent of more than 15 years looked over my truck, my safe driver jacket, & Lifetime OOIDA emblem on the back of the truck this morning. I had it in her parking lot first thing this am. Word. We do haz-mat but when we do, the carrier covers...

No kidding, this has been the result of a six month on/off battle to get information on exactly what they needed on the doggone form to satisfy them. OOIDA actually identified a portion of our lease that made it impossible for any other company to provide insurance, a requirement that the...

Finally, they came through, "Everything OK and switching over." No explanation for the hiccup given though . . .

I know CIS is a good company and I've had good conversations with them. Unfortunately, they were higher than my personal insurance company's quote, probably because I have 6 vehicles, a large homeowners, and a business policy with them. I was asking about Pather, Load 1, Tri-State, etc...

I just submitted an insurance binder to our carrier for Non-Trucking Liability & Physical Damage Coverage. Although I specifically asked for a call "if anything was not compliant", the safety lady just replied with an email, "This will not work, we must be listed as the Certificate Holder, the...

History shows EVRY election cycle that the liberal media gives at least 5% advantage in "the polls" until a week before the actual election, when they are forced to bring their "polls" in line. Anyone who believes the polls of today have anything to do with an election 10 months away in nuts.

No, we would never take $0.50 a mile, not even balanced by all the loads we ever took in our lifetime! Those sorts of rates do not serve the industry or the owners or the drivers. They ONLY serve to hurt us all to profit someone who doesn't give a rip about you! Let their loads rot on the dock!

If we ever got an unsolicited offer of $.50 a mile, we'd go to work for a new company immediately. Any company with the conscience (lack) willing to offer $.50 a mile is a company that doesn't seem to care if there owners make it financially, and, in addition, they are willing to support a...

OK, we JUST completed a 6,925 trip with 350.66 gallons for a REAL 19.75 MPG. Running an average of 67 MPH with our 2006 3500 (six wheeler) 2.7 Liter 5 cylinder, loaded average of about 900 lbs. We also ran our espar about 80 hours (close guess), usually on low setting, on the same fuel. I...

We're curious, did you change the fluid & filter like Mecedes recommends? I think it's every 120,000 miles or so. . .

The good news is 512k miles. The bad news is it didn't last forever. I just hope our lasts as long! Good luck with your new trans!

They will be 2013 models, built in Kansas City USA. I've heard probably four engine choices, all fours, two gas & two diesel, one of each with a turbo. Also looks like they will have a manual transmission option with FWD, RWD, and possibly AWD. Three heights and three wheelbases, the longest...

OK, how about WW puts into their contract that if they are more than 35 days, they pay another 5%, and another 1% for every day later than that? That would be fair to innocent O/O's waiting for honest payment!

I was thinking how wonderful it would be if someone made an Espar type unit that included a small generator to produce about 15 amps of 12 volt power to charge our battery bank as well as heat our truck. That would be nice!
