Welcome back Greg.

I did it once in Florida for what I assumed was a VERY drunk driver. I guess it could have been a medical issue, but it was about 0300 and I'm gonna go with drunk. Gave vehicle description, plate number, my info and never heard another thing.

My guess would be to help with the heavy steer axle that Volvos are known for.

Welcome to EO! A big cyber pat on the back to you! Very few newbs seem to use the site the way it should be used. There's so much here, all you have to do is read. You really seem to have a grip on things. Waiting until August is a real good idea. Hopefully, things will be starting to pick up by...

They built it with a mode of operation that doesn't work? Did they, or could they, explain that in a way that made sense?

Rumor has it that The Man in Chinchilla and DJ Shelled a Lot will be teaming up for a monster stadium tour. I'd like to apply to be the guy with a headset and a flashlight. "I have Moot, we're heading to the stage. He appears to be sober enough to stand up. Bring down the lights."

Yes, I agree! We get it Wellarmed, you're, ahhh, well armed. It's not offensive, it just looks silly.

There was just something reassuring about that voice. "And now you know the rest of the story" became a catch phrase that many of us have used from time to time. A 7 decade career, wow! How many achieve that? Truly a legend.

What we see demonstrated is that safety is numero uno. As a solo, I'll probably never see a $5k run, but I can certainly feel his frustration. Mentioning it puts a very fine point on what it can be like when this business decides to kick you in the tender body parts.

That musta been Turtle giving the bayonet talk.;) Your son has my most humble respect and appreciation.

Cameron and 13.... Oh... Sorry, I just kind of spaced out for a second.

Really, I think I fall between choices 1 and 2. I do love this job and don't really see me doing anything else. However, I would never close the door completely on other opportunities. I just can't imagine what they might be at this point. So, I voted 2.

Phil, maybe you should include something in your sig line like, "Diane and I are doing better than most ". That way, we can be continually reminded of it and you wouldn't have to devote a paragraph when you post.

If I were still running a cargo van, I'd feel the same way. I've been in and out of Canada many, many times. I never received any kind of premium for doing it. But, it was the bulk of my business at the time, so it was worth it. This added hassle and expense just doesn't make sense for a truck...

I don't know about everyone else, but message #38 pegged my moron meter.

Have you taken the time to read anything that's been posted here in the last few months? Sorry, guess I'm a bit punchy. It's been REAL slow...

They can't ticket for what you "might" have been doing. If they plug in and you're set in compliance, you'd have to be good. Any of us "might" do a lot of things...

Well Cheri, it's a tough job, but there are sacrifices I'm willing to make.

I'm relaxing at the Best Western in Jeffersonville, In. The truck is at Freightliner getting a new head gasket. This cold long neck sure hits the spot...

What the law refers to is something like a switch on the dash to set a limiter. As I understand it, what Piper is referring to would be legal. There is no device, that I've ever heard of, that can permanently set a speed limiter, never to be changed again. As for me, I've got about 2 weeks...
