There are many ways in which expediters deal with winter. How do you deal with it? If there's a choice not on the poll that should be, let me know and I'll add it.

Yes sir. :barberpole:

You don't need a poll for that question. You also don't need to be asking a question of fleet owners in the Ask the Recruiter Forum. This is a question that marginally belongs in the Newbies Paradise Forum.

I've used rice, as well. Plain, uncooked rice is nearly worthless as a desiccant, but instant rice is better. The reason is, of course, instant rice is already cooked, which cracks the starch, which is more porous and will absorb moisture. Rice isn't actually, technically, hygroscopic, because...

9 years with NASA as an engineer, this guy shows you how to quickly defog your windshield, and why it works. It doesn't work for frost on the outside of the windshield, of course, but it will work on frost inside the windshield, it'll just take a little longer than simple fog. A few words on...

The classic Town Hall drivel notwithstanding, what Obama did is one of the most egregious and blatant examples of emotional feel-good liberalism which will accomplish exactly nothing that I've seen in a long, long time. It was pure theater worthy of a Shakespeare tragic comedy. Because it was so...

You know, they say it you fly more than 100 hours a year, then owning and flying your own Cessna is a good deal. :crazy_pilot

Everyone out here should have a carbon monoxide detector in the truck, even the ones running diesel engines. OK, it's not THAT critical for big trucks, but if a car (an older one especially) parks next to you and idles all night, you could be sucking up a lot of carbon monoxide. That's more for...

Can Frequent Flyer Miles be traded in for a corporate jet?

He's still probably thinking, "I've got a generator, so I can make the electric heater work." Have to consider that is gonna take a big heater to heat that thang, so the generator is going to be running at or near 100% all the time. Not only is that a lot of hours on the generator, and more...

If you haul HAZMAT in it which requires placarding, you don't have a choice. The CDL is for the driver. Only the Class (A, B or C) is for the vehicle.

-40 degrees F in Saskatchewan and Edmonton, my Espar kept the Sprinter warm and toasty.

Weeeeellllll, I took my CDL test in a Ford E-350. But that was for a Class C (any vehicle that's not an A or a B, but halls HAZMAT). Whatever class of vehicle you use to take your skills (road) test, that's the class of CDL you're gonna get. If you take your skills test in a Class B truck...

That reads like spy code. Dogs barking. Can't fly without umbrella.

No, you don't need to go to truck driving school to get a Class B CDL. Get a learner's permit, practice driving one, pass the written test, pass the skills test. Done. Yes, you can request automatics. A particular fleet owner may or may not have one needing a driver. Rather than looking at it...
