I have the AT&T 3g aircard, and I love it, and it works everywhere. No, I dont use my phone to use it. There used to some out there like that, but that does not make much sense to tie up your phone at the same time while using your aircard and it takes away from your phone minutes, if you have...

I personally think most larger carriers prefer dealing with a fleet owner instead of a single owner-operator for many reasons.If I were the owner of Peckerhead Trucking, and needed to hire 20 new owner-operators,would you want to go through this process 20 different times, or just make one call...

I dont think mileage is as big of an issue as the model year is, for the bigger carriers.I bought a 2003 with 180,000 on it, because I wanted the 7.3 diesel engine, which is the last year they offered it in a Ford van.Only 1 carrier has not hired me because of it.

I havent had much luckgetting freight out of Houston in a s/t, and in a cargo van,I havent been there yet with a van. As far as where to buy a van, I wouldnt buy one from anyone else but Ryder.They give a 30-day warranty nationwide on what they sell, and give you complete maintenance history...

Deadheaded home from Lawerenceville, Ill on Weds. morning after unloading there.Had an excellent and meaningful Christmas with my girlfreind, our first Christmas together.Went to a beautiful candle-lit church service Christmas eve, and had a great Christmas day together with freinds and family.I...

You go, girl, you go!! Tell it how it is !!! lol.

Let me know if you need help in our area.Call me if needed.I am deeply touched by the outpouring of help and concern on this.Makes me proud to be an Expeditor in times like this.

I have a bad problem of being scared to death of the dentist as well, as some of you that met me can see.There will come a time very soon when I will go and have them put me to sleep and rip what is left out and fit me for dentures and hopefully be done with it.Is it true that people that wear...

Mankato, MN to Oshkosh, Wi. Got this one 1 hour after I pod'd on the last one.At least it is bringing me closer to home.

I plan on being home, as well on Weds until after the 1st of the year. It is time to catch up on what so much I missed by being out all the time in the past.

That's excactly right.Why is it that as time goes on,everything has gone up in price, and continues to go up, while at the same time,our rates continue to spiral downward. And to add to that, we have people out here cheering and supporting companies who are the cause of the low rates to begin with.

The fl-70 I ordered new in 2000 was a 26,000 gvw truck with air-ride cab and suspension, as well as air-brakes.So I dont know if it would be considered a class 6 or 7.But it held up okay, I guess. too many factory defects when I got it. I have a freind in Tennesee who bought a Ford L-7000 new...

That's one thing I can say about Polly Express, they always paid me anywhere between .85 and 1.02 per mile on loads, which at the time, were alot higher than everyone else, which explained why I sat as much.Now, I am getting around .89 pm all out, which is not the best, and I dont know what...

I think they are quieter on the inside.They do offer an artic package as well on Paccaar products (KW<PETE)And the trucks I am talking about are class 7 trucks as well, but built with class 8 components, for the most part. The dealer told me when I bought mine was the only difference between a...

Youre absolutely correct, and I can bet it will come out as a complete loss, would of been better off not taking it at all.

Out of desperation, no matter how bad of a decision it may be? I'm just thinking out loud here.Some people may still be in hole so bad that any load will get taken, regardless of the circumstances.

Bolt got he load because they may of reduced the rate even more, and undercut the heck out of youre company.I can bet on this, though: they most likely are doing it for alot less than you would even consider doing it for.Another type of scumbag in this industry.Drivers such as this should be...

I know I'm going to step on a few toes here, but I'd stay away from a Sterling for a couple of reasons. They are not going to make them anymore, so parts availability will become less as time goes on, this coming from my freinds at the Sterling dealership back home.And I have had so many...

But doesnt that 10-year rule apply to s/t's only? I find it funny, because we all know a person can have a 1995 truck with a new box on it, or vice-versa. They always look at the door jamb sticker for the vehicle.lol..

Just broke in with alot of life in it yet.There is a Fl-70 with a 30' box on it with 800,000 with extensive engine work that I am considering buying for a back-up in case I want to do local work again.
