If its a new APU take it back to TK it's under warranty, as for your truck A/C take it to a real A/C repair shop not a truck stop. If the truck is under warranty take it to their shop not a truck stop.

I took those numbers direct from the companies web site. I just put in DR and tt refers and got those numbers. Now I don't know what the average rate is for a D refer unit with all the companies, but even with a refer unit people seem to be making money here a LEAM. Zorry, maybe you could...

The difference with Landstar and others when it comes to company owned trailers comes down too the fact that Landstar doesn't own any trailer in the system they are all leased. When it comes to a BCO here they would rent the trailer from Landstar and it would be up to the BCO to get loads. Same...

They plan to start using them, Not a biggie, Simple answer to not paying a fine for speeding in a work zone or anywhere else. DON'T SPEED

Talk about getting infrastructure in place fast. This could be a win win for both natural gas companies and trucking in the long term. Now to get trucking companies to buy the vehicles. And let's not bring politics into this announcement, this is private business doing what they do best...

Last I looked the max speed limit in Ontario and most other provinces is 100 kph, the speed limiters give the drivers 105 kph. Therefore, beef from the drivers comes down to not. Wing able to speed anymore in parts of Canada. Looks to me that going the speed limit keeps you from getting...

Memphis tn. waiting to unload at 8 am. Just might take a look around downtown Memphis.

I hope some here read this and understand this. UNDER 10001 LBS YOU ARE NOT A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE, DOT HAS NO CONTROL OVER YOUR WEIGHT LIKE A OVER 10000 LBS VEHICLE. YOU CANNOT EVEN HAVE A DOT INSPECTION UNLESS YOU ARE HAULING PLACARDED HAZMAT. NO SCALES IN ALL BUT TWO STATES SD AND SOMEONE SAID...

This is from Ford on a GVW rectification, if you need to know more here is the web site I got he info from. Re-rating GVWR: Why and How it's Done - Article - Work Truck Beattie and Chew noted their greatest involvement comes with vehicles rated at 10,000 lbs. and under. With heavy and...

Well .70 +.18 FSC comes out to .88 per mile loaded, not good I don't get out of bed for less the 1.25 a mile. When I started I took the 1.06 mile loads. Now if I worked at Panther I would be sitting in Laredo like all those other .90 per mile drivers. Some have sit for 5 days, not me seen 15...

1. yes they can do a inspection in a service plaza, since that is public property (own by the state) 2. If you don't answer for a while they can have a tow truck tow the truck. Public property again. 3. YES they can get you out of bed too do a inspection, because you can always be on duty not...

Why don't you guys get back to the OP. BTW I call it BS about a six hour delay for a inspection. There is no way any DOT officer can hold you for that amount of time, never has happened and never will. This is C.B. talk at its best. As for Bob Wolf and its not about safety, well its about the...

If those are twist lock flags, never ever leave them on at night because even in a truck stop they will disappear. Take them off at night and relace in the morning.

At the house in McKinney Tx. Just got done with the LEAM 120 day inspection also had my brother change my pads and rotors on the van. Other then that can't wait till next month for a week in Florida with 2 nieces and two of their friends. Plus Landstars all star weekend for million milers...

LOL Bob, they tell you about the blitz and people still go out there and get into trouble, It's simple if your equipment is in poor repair or you cannot keep your log book up then stay home. If a person wants to run then have your equipment inspected at a shop and fix the problems before the...

What did you hit?

I have found out at Landstar if you tell the agent what time you expect to make a delivery on a Friday afternoon pick up they understand and will change the time for you. If they say the delivery time is set in stone then I guess I wont take the load since the only thing I can offer is service.

I said some OOIDA members, none by name. That way if the shoe fits someone they know who they are. The only reason the court held the way they did is because congress mandated that FMCSA include harassment in their decision for EOBR type rules. As for any other argument they wont stand up...
