Joe Smith started the day early having set his alarm clock (MADE IN JAPAN) for 6am. While his coffeepot (MADE IN CHINA) was perking, he shaved with his electric razor (MADE IN HONG KONG). He put on a dress shirt (MADE IN SRI LANKA), designer jeans (MADE IN SINGAPORE) and tennis shoes (MADE IN...

From Landline (key points highlighted by me!) The FMCSA recently amended sleeper berth rules as they pertain to the new hours-of-service regulations, which take effect in January 2004. These amendments do not change the substance of the rule, but are intended to remove some ambiguity in...

Hey Weave.. was just doing my "wish list shoppin", as I'm planning to buy another vehicle, either truck or van after the first of the year, and this one was listed in the Hotshot newsletter. It's at Freightliner of Knoxville, and is the only one I've seen that looks like yours.. being a 2001...

Talked to a Tri State rep the other day, about their new short haul division, which is non sleeper equipped straight trucks based out of Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio. Apparently they just started doing this a few months ago, and I called to inquire, because I noticed in an ad, they were hiring...

This was an interesting review on the Sprinter, which apparently is going to have some changes. Originally marketed as a Mercedes Benz, then Freightliner, next year it will be marketed as a Dodge! Also, it will made availible as a cab-chassis so it can be fitted with a variety of boxes...

To say that shock was reigning supreme here in Columbus Ohio today, is an understatement. The news reporters were outside the Consolidated Freightways yard as word spread mouth to mouth among drivers, and they starting pulling up to the yard to find it barricaded. With no warning to drivers...
