    Transfering load truck to truck

    Maybe I am tired of all the fun on New Years eve but I would have told dispatch $1.25 (my minimal cost) all miles, not $1.02 simply because the offer for the other team was just that, an offer and I agree with 9114 Fish. Dispatch is doing the original truck a favor without having a real reason...

    VICTIMS OF OUR OWN SUCCESS ??

    Phil said;"Without trucks, none of that would be possible." Come on, without trucks we would have a different manner of transport of goods. Just as we evolved from using hand carts and carts drawn by horses to canals and river boats to rail to aircraft, if trucks were not the predomient means...

    Your Dream Truck

    I don’t mean to be an a** about things but lets really not hear about these trucks that are expensive builds that don’t do anything but feed egos. I am not picking on any one person but to spend $150k to $whatever for most of us is not and never will be a doable task. I fully understand...

    China automaker to build cars for Chrysler

    I think you got the point, but I got to add the myth of a big three died when Chrysler was taken over by Daimler-Benz and the shift from auburn hills to Germany for the world headquarters of the parent corporation was evident.

    OK I got to ask, where is the UAW? why isn't there a general strike being called? Shut down D-C NA to make a point! Also did you know that D-C is a foreign car company?

    Changing Oil Change Practices

    Actually the block heater on my ISC and ISB's only heat the coolant, not the oil. I think that I have a spot for an oil heater but I didn't see one on the block of the ISC. And to answer what is an ISC, it is a Cummins engine. 8.3 Liters from 210 to 310 HP (depending on the application). It is...

    A note on unions (not related to trucking!)

    I just don’t agree. There is no double standard. A contractor is completely different animal than a unionized worker. The contractor is subject to more performance related standards and subject to a termination of the contract for different issues, like not fulfilling approval requirements...

    Longest living president - Ford - Died at 93

    Cheri The problem is that the office of the president is not a private office, it is a public office of the highest position this country has. There is a strict need to have respect for the office, a need to maintain integrity and a very important need not to get involved with someone or...

    Longest living president - Ford - Died at 93

    Remember, Monica=lying to a Grand Jury. Remember, Iran=Selling our country out. I don't fault Clinton as much as I hate to see Carter open his mouth abot anything, he has sold us all out. But the intent for me was to put forth that we made a BIG mistake by electing carter instead of electing Ford.

    Saddam Executed!

    Saddam is dead, it took long enough but the US did not execute him, the Iraqi people did. What bothers me is the fact that the lawyers for Saddam brought his case to the US, what an abuse of our consistution and insulting to the american people. To have a foreigner who has been tried and...

    Longest living president - Ford - Died at 93

    "Also I remember a neighbor getting a very nice 12% mortgage when Mr JC was President." H*ll I remember my parents complaining my uncle financed at 18% because that was the best deal he could find. Remember inflation - wasn't that around 12% in 78?

    RE: Is it important for your carrier to be certifi Well just to keep this going, at my former employer we were multiple ISO certified and we never never never trained any contractor on ISO anything except what our policy that we are ISO certified. The reason we didn't train anyone is as soon as...
