    Expedite Expo Expedite Expo 2009 Photos

    Let's see... One poster says the box looks strange. Well, it is highly unusual in the expedite world. Another says that he thought the doors weren't allowed, simply wondering if what he heard was wrong or had been changed. Another said he couldn't see any use for the doors. Could someone show...

    Countdown to the Expo

    I'm enjoying the balmy, tropical breezes of Laredo as I reset my hours. Have a good time everyone!

    scenario, question

    Ark's got the right idea. Simply put, if getting back to Toledo after every run is important, then expediting probably isn't for you.

    Will you Step up?

    Make no mistake, we all think this is very, very sad. As you keep pointing out, there's a widow and children suffering greatly from this. Of course we get that, but you keep insulting our intelligence by suggesting we, somehow, don't. The concept we grasp, very well, is that these things are...

    Will you Step up?

    A fine example of "feel good" legislation. If it passed, what are the chances that it would have any impact on the level of violent crimes against truckers? We can only speculate, but I suspect very little chance. Crimes like this are random and will happen, period. "But, if it only saves one...

    The Open Championship

    Tom Watson says "it would've been a good story." No Tom, it is a great story! Come back next year and get the job done!

    Some have said they wouldn't buy a GM Product

    In the '80s, we had the "Be American, Buy American" campaign that basically tried to "guilt trip" us into buying the Big 3's products, since they couldn't compete on quality and value. It'll be interesting to see what comes down the pike now.

    Rooftop Ac

    The 1 ton Sprinter has the dual rear wheels. There's not enough room between the wheel wells for a standard skid. There are things that can be done, rework the wells, build up the floor, but most go with the 2500.

    Rooftop Ac

    Are "They" the people that sold you the truck, equipped with a sleeper? If so, that's some pretty substantial misrepresentation. I'd talk with a lawyer. With only a 1550 payload, I wouldn't be adding anything else.

    The Judge Caved

    Don't ask me how I know this, but... Vince Foster. He's not really dead. He's grown a beard, assumed a new identity and is personally guarding Barack's birth certificate in a seedy hotel in Bangkok, Thailand.

    What happening with Panther???

    I wouldn't think so. The van wouldn't be operating under Panther's authority.

    The Open Championship

    How about Tom Watson!! I just watched him roll in a long birdie on the 18th to get back into a tie for the lead, at the tender young age of 59! Go old guy! Meanwhile, Tiger looks to be missing the cut by several strokes.

    Dude, that's just so wrong. I haven't even met him yet, and I just know it's wrong.

    July Location

    Hey Chef, it's Thursday. Other than that, good post. 55, when it begins with a lie like that, what are the chances that it'll go good? I'd rent a car, put my stuff in it and head home. The idiot owner can get the truck out of the shop himself. Good advice from Chef and the Dakota Van Man.

    Countdown to the Expo

    O.K., we'll put you in a white t-shirt and use that squirt gun. I'm registered, we'll see where I end up a week from now. I've heard the patio rocks!

    Any thoughts on this?

    I only read a couple of posts and skimmed the rest, as this is so obviously a load of crap. I know that I'd be out the door immediately at the mere suggestion of such a thing, and I think many others would too. Why would a carrier risk their credibility by suggesting such a thing?

    Unions run this administration

    So, I guess you're not going to explain why you think a mod shouldn't be able to debate here either?
