    Typical Ford Motor Company Behavior

    I always feel like the getting punked part of it is them laughing at me as I stand there being polite and patient so as not to irritate the union idiot.

    vans and logs

    TerryandRene, thanks for the Kentucy update. That's the first I've heard of it. Greg334, time spent waiting for a load at home is off-duty. Time waiting for a load in a truckstop may be a different matter. Before the changes, time waiting in a truckstop was considered on-duty. Of course, I know...

    I wonder what Pat Robertson thinks of this weather?

    Are you prepared?

    DaveKC hit the nail square with securing the scene. Get those flares and reflecters set up. There would be responsibility on someones part if another vehicle came along and hit one of the vehicles involved.

    I'm getting a little tired of it

    "Can't we all just get along?" A quote from a deep, philisophical thinker like Rodney King really puts things into perspective. Makes our differences seem rather petty. It kind of makes you want to stand in the middle of the World Famous Detroiter van parking area and shout, "I love you, man!"...

    honest officer, I really can see the road

    Don't quit your day job yet, but you can be pretty funny at times. I HATE junk on my dash. I had my Sirius in the middle of the dash and I had to move it after a couple of days.

    saw an interesting van

    I think I've also seen this van. In addition to what you've mentioned, they were running team with 2 VERY large dogs. Where DO they put the freight?

    Somehow its all comming back to me.

    Kudos Broompiolt. This was a very interesting read. Newbees should read this with a very open mind. This next is probably a bit of stating the obvious. You newbees need to take the spirit of this thread with you as you talk to drivers on the road. As Bryan said, some don't want to hear the...

    Canada FAST & Crossing the border empty

    Assuming you are talking about using a FAST lane when empty, my experience has been that it is a grey area. For going into Canada I was given a card that only had my carriers I.D. on it. I was told this was for using the FAST lane coming in empty and with dunnage. Some officers were fine with...

    2006 Goals

    Well Bryan, those are lofty goals for someone that likes to spend half the year sitting around the house. 50 more days out would almost put you at part time. Even though I'm heading into uncharted waters, I'll take you up on the bet. However, that's assuming my drug test comes back O.K. today...

    2006 Goals

    When I bid farewell to '05 I also asked that it not let the door hit it in the rear-end on the way out. Business wise, it was littered with way more than it's share of B.S. I kept my composure and maintained the necessary polite attitude, but there were a couple of times I may have seen the...

    Taking offers to purchase a truck or van

    I think a little clarification is in order here. First, what did the subject title have to do with the post. There were no vehicles of any size offered for sale. Second, are you saying that if someone does'nt want to work, does'nt make their payments and, as a result, loses the truck, then that...

    Getting Finanaced

    If credit score is an issue that may bring home equity into play. There are a significant number of us that don't even own homes or even just live in the truck.
