    How far will you go?

    as when we talked on the phone,if its a must for the courier to have a bed,and army cot in the trailer,with a sleeping bag should work fine.There is no way you can run over 600 miles,and log with out one of you in the bunk,and i dont think sleeping with a stranger is going to work for either one...

    Fuel prices and the writers strike

    fuel prices arent going to drop,as long as we all use the fuel like its free.supply and demand,thats just part of the issue,oil speculation is the other.As long as Wall street is in the mix,prices wont be any different.My way of thinking,you want the oil price to drop,put a windfall tax on the...

    My fuel mileage is around 7 mpg,sometimes less,most the time more.My fsc is based on 6 mpg,and $1.20/gallon.With the fsc I get for my dispatched miles,my actual fuel cost is under a dollar per gallon,so shutting down wont solve the problem,now gasoline is another issue,I'm just glad I dont have...

    I'm going to be sitting how long?

    I guess I have to put my 2 cents in this.I run my truck a little different than others.If I'm given an express center that is crowded with trucks,and the cost of fuel is cheaper to go home than the time I will sit waiting,as we wait in motels,not in the truck,then you might find me dead...

    george carlins solution to save gas

    Bush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use. The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants! That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down..... Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the Border. When they catch...
