That would like putting an elevator in an outhouse, it don't belong.

This why a picture can say a thousond words. We do a few things before we load and after we load to cover our rear end.

Are you guys running teams or solo? Do you have your Haz mat. Can your Truck haul over 13,000 lbs? Do you have a lift gate? Do you have a Pallet Jack in your truck? Can you go to Canada? How big is your box? Are you DOD cleared drivers? So many things can cause your truck to get passed over on a...

Things haven't changed much for our fleet at all, in fact we are get freight where our old carrier could never get us a load out of. Plus being able to book our own freight helps. I will take $1.38 for all miles like this each month like the stats on this D unit truck for the month of March of...

Well, I could ask my one team to do it. We have been wanting to do it for years. I would have to get a recorder to do it. And the okay from Panther to do it.

It's was okay. I like to make One about the life of an Expedite Driver.

It's nice isn't it Steve. I had a truck on with Tri-State back in 95-96 and they was a really good company to run for. Panther and Tri-state don't control you like other carriers do. I'm glad your happy and its all working out for you.

I think your way off on saying it was Panther. 1st off the phone calls are recorded. 2nd The people in safety are really tuff and they wouldn't ask that, I know this for a fact. 3rd Panther wouldn't put a single driver on a load like this unless the driver can log a break or take a break.

Glad your doing good at Tri-state. When I get my MC number maybe you will come and run some freight for us.

I would like to know who the carrier is. I can't see it being Panther, FedEx, Landstar, Tri-State, Load One or Express One.

I know that friend was me. But hey I was mad at the time. It's all good now, sometimes in life you have to move on and it may turn out for the better or it may be worse. In our case it has been great and we have almost doubled our fleet size in less than 2 years. Panther has been really good to...

Having a unit there is a good thing. It shows people how you have the units set up as far as the QC and the signs. Plus it shows how much you support the Expo. The year I went to the Expo my old company had the best booth but didn't support the Expo like Panther did that year. They had a get...

Thats a good goal Steve. My goal was to get to five trucks on the road so my father could run them and didn't have to drive anymore. I did it but my father passed away, then got a divorce and sold all the trucks but one. I set a goal of getting back to five trucks. We now have seven trucks and I...

John Talking with you many times on the phone. You do what drivers are looking for in a CEO. I feel you are someone that dosen't think they are above the the drivers. Getting a call from you when you was walking into your home really shown me that your like the rest of us. Some places come...

I understand what your saying Dave. When I was in The Rent to Own business we had goals set each month on how much money the store was going to bring in. Now I couldn't make people just come into the store and rent things. It seems you try a little harder when you set a goal for yourself. Thats...

Setting a goal and keeping track of where your at as far as hitting the goal can be fun and keep you on your toes. It can also help people stay positive. Goals are good for every business. I set a goal for our fleet that I hope to hit. If I don't hit goal and make only 95% of my goal. I will be...

Cheri Here is the website. Cargo Bars—Lodi Metals, Inc.

How many of you set goals for each quarter or each month? When I got my 2nd truck back in 1998 I set goals for my drivers to hit and we would surpass the goals by more than 10% each time. I stopped setting goals and over the years we just rolled along not gaining any ground. So in December...

Phil Maybe some people don't want to share that info. When you share yours, I will share mine. You have to look at your ROI. That plays a big part of it too.
