I don't but, I keep up with the rules so when my brother asks me something about the rules I can answer it for him. Plus I can help others understand how simple the rules are. Plus I used to drive a big truck. drove over 20 years. I just keep up

Show me anything in the new rules that are hard to understand. If you run team you can now spend 2 in the right seat as off duty and 8 in sleeper. What's hard about that If your solo all time sitting and not in sleeper is off duty, where as, under old rules all the time spent on the truck...

You would only spend 2 night in a room if you want or stay in the truck one night and hotel the next. Then again I would find things to do away from the truck stop. Carry a bike go riding during the day depending on where you are. There are lots of things todo away from truck stops, you just...

Maybe so, but as of now it's will be the rule, that is unless the courts overturn the new rules.

I totally agree with your statement. Hell I could do 55 MPH and at the end of the day claim I averaged 67 MPH because I was on paper logs. Now I did quit doing that some years ago and started running s close to legal as possible. Now in the van I don't worry I drive till tired and take a 5 to...

Why would you be in a truck stop for 3 days. Myself I would get a hotel room for the weekend that has a pool and small gym to use. They are never going back to the split sleeper berth, you and others need to realize this fact and get on with your life. They will never go back to stopping...

What's so hard about taking a lunch every day... If you stop at 7 hours for an 1/2 hour you don't need to stop again. My god their making you take a break that most do now but never claim.. where's the problem

I have no clue why people cannot understand the rule its simple 1. Your 34 hour restart can only be used ONCE a week. It does't matter if you start it at 3 in the afternoon you still need two 1am to 5am no matter what. 2. Your next 34 restart can only begin at the same time you started the...

My 05 has 14 in the box on 158 inch wheel base

Well, then I'll be 6, I'll be looking for a new van by years end anyway. Will have to save this year so I can just give them cash. I just don't a payment, because I want to take time off when I want.

Because they had to retool the KC plant to make the vehicle, unlike Mercedes who have brought us a vehicle the've were building in Europe.

They are for later in 2013, Ford is testing them right now. Their also being built in KC not overseas. These vans will be U.S made.

Now I get what you mean, then again, I would be a for hire, unregulated carrier

What's the point... are you talking about Vans or straight trucks. Are you talking about vehicles over 10001 or under that number.

Might not be a Just law, but its still the law per CARB.

It's not the truck age that counts, it's the motor age. If you have a 2006 truck you could have a 2005 engine. I see too many people mixing the two things up when it comes to the Ca rule.

Old news and didn't make a difference. Live with it. People have known about these changes for years, its nothing new. Therefore, you have two choices, no make that three choices. Choice one buy a newer vehicle Choice two pay to up grade your equipment with a CARB compliant filter Choice...

Mine is getting local freight in the Los Angeles area and not being out of town much, that is unless the load pays great. I also will be taking 2 long range fishing trips 8 day in June (not set up yet) ten day in Nov. this one is a go. Plus my Oct. Cabo trip with brother for a week of...

Sorry to say that your biggest mistake was buying your first vehicle on credit and with such a large payment. I just about fainted when I read you had a 750 dollar a month payment. Even if I want another Sprinter or if I decided to buy the new Ford I'll wait till I have cash to pay for the...
