    Naw. The last jet engine we hauled wasn't completely purged of aviation fuel and hydralic oil, so it pee'd on our deck. These fluids are highly caustic. The wife and I have already had some bad burns to our hands and arms. Hazards of the world of aviation. I put the shipping pad down on deck to...

    This is our new Mini Boston Terrier pup. She weighs five pounds now. She will mature at approximately ten pounds and stand 10-11" tall at the shoulder when fully grown (great size for pulling tarp ropes under the jet engines for ole fatty). We are currently outside of SWA in the Dallas area...

    Will post some this weekend. Got to wear her out enough to get her to stand still long enough to snap a few pics.

    Well we've finally done it. We've put a pet back on our truck after being told by FECC that we could not have our pet onboard. Being the pet lovers that we are, we really missed not being allowed to have our poodle with us. For my wife's birthday we got her (us) a Mini Boston Terrier pup that...

    Campgrounds and CMV's

    It has been our experience that commercial logos and the size of the logo on the vehicle sometimes come into play. We have been admitted into RV resorts with our tractor that denied us access with our DR-unit when leased to FECC. The reason given was that the management felt their other clients...

    How foolish some members are....

    I'm sorry Phil but I gotta thank you for the chuckle of the day! Being a "hero" in this business is not about how much your truck (or mine) is out of service and meeting "Four Star" criteria. Its about getting much needed Tamaflu delivered in record time during a flu epidemic, or that...

    Steve, they say things happen in threes! What next? That really sucks especially since it wasn't long ago on the other repair. Hope she wasn't having phone sex when she hit you. Not the climax she was hoping for! :p

    How foolish some members are....

    Ours is both, including lawn chairs and a dog! ;) We do use our tractor as our RV when we are OOS and even when we are availible. Seriously speaking, our carrier is considering more leases based on increased freight availibilty, not OOS trucks. They are extremely careful so as not to lease on...

    ATeam's approach on this purchase is interesting and even makes since. When making this kind of purchase I believe you have to be able to look it exactly as ATeam does, especially when its not your primary residence. We've actually discussed when we no longer have the need to keep our Florida...

    From would have sold for 100K to sold for 40K in a two year period would equal a 60K decrease in value of the home over that two year period. Interestingly enough, although home values in our area of FL (including ours) did take a hit during these hard economic times, we've not seen the 50-60%...

    Fed dropping its standards?

    As we speak, the engineers are designing a mist system (after they're done inspecting the Florida mobile home). This will come complete with a water bottle that attaches to your belt, connected to a mist nozzle with a tube that will be placed behind the plastic propeller. This will be great...

    Fed dropping its standards?

    So, if one were to shave or trim the pits, would that change the game plan? Come on, I'm sure somebody out there does! :D

    Fed dropping its standards?

    I could'nt agree with you more and everything quoted above applies to us also, well most. We to have become more image conscious when it comes to serving our customers. Recently we had custom tee shirts made with our logo on the front pocket and an airplane with the words "We Love Airplanes"...

    Construction Zone Vigilante

    In the name of safety, I think its time to take back the construction zones along our highways from those whom choose to ignore the law by speeding and driving carelessly through them. Not only are they endangering the workers, they also are putting themselves and those driving around them at...

    Shame on those engineers for not telling him about the hurricane proof, precast concrete manufactured homes currently being built by a company in Broward County, FL. Looked at them myself out of couriousity and they're really decent looking homes but a bit costly.

    Unlike many unsuspecting buyers, I'm sure Phil has had a wealth of knowledge in his friend Glen.
