    Phones Best mobile broadband for expediters

    It's appropriate in this case, I think. While somewhat dated, the older posts are still relevant. :) I'm still tethering on Verizon. They've caught on, though. Kind of. Back in October they increased the price of the data plan for those few who are still grandfathered on the unlimited plan. It...

    I got mine. I do every one of those surveys they email me, too. Basically, they buy my bananas every week. :banana::banana:

    Forum Tip Start a Conversation

    I have an email in to JoshM on that to see if he can get that added. I just don't know if it can be done, or how difficult it might be.

    You'll probably have to turn off AdBlock so the Facebook link will show up. ;) Or this one should work.

    The preemptive pardon debate was won by the delegates to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 who urged that pardons be permitted before conviction. If you're going to pardon them anyway, there's no point in wasting time and money going through a trial. Article II Section 2 of the...

    Rogers, AR to Midland, TX. One piece, 280 pounds, $1.09 per to the truck. I love the smell of Midland in the morning. Smells like... motor oil and rotten eggs.

    Soooo, they've moved from a Bell curve to a subjective pass-fail. Awesome.

    Constitutional law scholar

    Well, I was referring to the article where they quoted him not referring to himself as a professor, and then proceeded to straw man the pee out of it by berating him for referring to himself as a professor. Anything outside of that article constitutes a different context. If they want to...

    When did Obama refer to himself as a professor of constitutional law? Oh, that's right. Never.

    DOT Expediters holding FMCSA (DOT) to own standards

    The problem with CSA scoring system is that it disproportionately affects smaller carriers in a negative manner. Carriers with 1000 trucks and the violations are a very small percentage of possible infractions for the carrier, but a carrier with 200 trucks, or 20, or 1, and the percentage...

    Greensboro NC layover

    There's the TA about 10-15 miles east on I-40 (exit 138 if I recall). It's a big one. It's half way between Greensboro and Burlington. Really close. There's a Wilco-Hess there in Greesnboro near the TA, but it's tiny. Maybe 8 or 10 truck parking spots. A Petro another 20 miles east of that...

    Hopefully he won't mind. He hardly ever quotes anyone here. It's just color values, so a one-click revert.

    I had mine serviced at the one in Blaine (Minneapolis), MN the other day. The one in St Cloud didn't work on them, but they never did. Most former Dodge Sprinter dealers will still work on them, provided they still have the Sprinter tech. Otherwise it's Mercedes Benz for Sprinter-specific stuff...

    When you find out the Powerball odds are One in 292.2 million.

    What, you think he hurt my feelings? No. Having thick skin doesn't mean we should allow people to flagrantly and repeatedly disregard the Code of Conduct, disrespect other members, or openly thumb their nose at Staff members. When people do those things they get warned. If they ignore the...

    When you find out the Powerball odds are One in 292.2 million.

    For trolling? Yes. For openly challenging Staff members and calling them names? (you have a history of that - I haven't forgotten about you calling Dave a "joke" moderator). Yes. For derailing threads and posting off-topic? Yes. For unprovoked snipes at Staff and members alike? Yes. No I didn't...
