    It's just frustrating to be gouged for something we need. If the rise in price kept the status quo for profits you could understand it. When the rise in price produces record profits you just feel gouged.

    Expediters Hall of Fame

    Maybe exclusive use and schedule set by customer should be qualified or have an asterisk. Exclusive use isn't always needed to meet a time definate need. Customers can sometimes get a bit unrealistic with the times they need. They need to understand that we can't be putting ourselves at risk for...

    Canada Canada Truck Governors

    I think the "all trucks operating in Canada" part of this is going to be a very hard sell. Someone that runs out west is not going to want to castrate their truck that heavily.

    How stupid can parents be

    I've seen drivers with their left foot on the dash and reclined in the seat. It's a car, not the lazy boy in front of the tube.

    I'm sorry if "we people" offended you by not beating our chests and joining your resistance with a mighty roar. Bottom line is, it's no better an idea than any of the other ideas. While doing something, anything at all, seems like a good way to vent, it's no good if it's just noise.

    Internet Email Scams

    Greg, I think redytrk was yelling at me for asking about blocking them. I'm sorry that my question was apparantly really stupid. The reason I brought it up is that since I got Hotmail I no longer get any garbage. When I used an internet provider I used to have I got all kinds of junk and they...

    Tony Soprano did the oil change on my van

    Back in the spring of '99 I pulled into the Pennzoil shop on Telegraph about a mile or so north of the I-75 ramp. The guy comes out and asks if I want an oil change. Yes. He then tells me it will be about $90. In shock, I reply that that's ridiculous. He then tells me what the Ford dealer...

    pop the top

    Interesting idea, but it would sacrifice extra cabinet space. Maybe a worthwhile trade for a little better MPG. I'm considering a higher roof for my next van.

    I firmly believe in capitalism and have no problem with a business making a profit. But, the quarterly profits being reported right now are ridculous. When you take an average family with an average income, what has happened over the last few years to their monthly gasoline expense is very...

    I have Hotmail and I get none of these things. Can't you easily block them?

    Overweight Penalties

    What you just described has to be one of the biggest challenges for the straight truck folks. Without movable axles, getting that lump of 10k just right has to be a tough judgement call. Add in maybe not having a scale in the area and knowing that the shipper was gone 10 minutes after he put it...

    How may plan to Go to the EO expo

    I think the move to July is a good idea. Taking the weather out of the picture can't hurt either. See you all there!

    owner lease purchase

    Excellant post LDB. As usual, you get an A in the "simple, common sense, logic" department. Dave, you have nothing to sorry about in your post. The sound of your hammer hitting the nail squarely on the head reasonates very loudly. All they had to do was sit back and see if an offer came in...
