    Dear Expediters, help

    Well to be honest it does make Mueller's life easier. LOL Just because he wears the "Elliott's My Man" pajamas doesn't mean he believes it in his heart. Granted most likely he does, but still not 100%. And on that note another shout out to our birthday boy! Happy Bday Boo Bear! I did find...

    Hours Law Rolled Back

    I hope the restart rule gets suspended. I think the 1 to 5am rule is over bearing for drivers and companies and I don't think it has any safety enhancement. As well why would you limit the number of 34 hour restarts that a driver can use? If they enhance safety why would you limit them?

    For many years Load One and ARC have supported the charity Wreaths Across America. The charity started by accident a number of years ago when a wreath company in Maine had extra holiday wreaths and wanted to donate them to Arlington National Cemetery. A local trucking company offered to...

    True, the drop off occurred months later. Business moves up and down for a lot of different reasons in this industry. It is the very nature of unpredictable expedite freight. When it is busy we all love it, when it is slower we loathe it. But we sometimes forget this is the market we chose...

    Windsor, the issue was with talking about another individual and details of their life. It was an issue of other peoples personal things being discussed. Not his opinion on business items. A lot of people were upset by the post and felt it crossed the personal line. I honestly agreed.

    What's up w/ panther

    I agree. I think less new replacement units will be bought than old units will be scrapped out. If the law of supply and demand holds true this could help rates in the straight truck market to continue to increase. We have seen a steady progression there over the last few years in that...

    What's up w/ panther

    Agreed. I often think true depreciation is not factored into some peoples math. It is especially concerning as the replacement costs have climbed dramatically. A five or 6 year old vehicle is in the area of 40% less expensive than the purchase price of the unit being bought new to replace it...
