    Well TallCal, hope they have a safe trip. The 2 questions should be; who else get these runs and ... well never mind ... just who else get these runs?

    what's up with the fuel pricing ?

    I as some what agree with you rode, the question for me is why does a chain like Pilot have such a wide range of prices within the same state? The taxes are the same (or I assume they are) and they have their own trucks, but where I am sitting, it is $2.62 and it is highest by almost $.10 than...

    16' box truck, door opening/deck height? comfort/c

    RE: 16' box truck, door opening/deck height? comfo I looked at several Penske trucks and I could not haul more than 2000lbs if I didn't take a thing with me. The biggest issue is how much does it actually way, I mean if the truck weighs in at 7500lbs, OK it is a strech but if it gets close to...

    Bolton gone, so we throw the baby out with the wat

    It is odd that many people are sad to see Bolton go, I mean most of them work with him at the UN. The Chinese diplomat made a comment that he was a strong leader and a welcomed change. Others have made similar comments but I find it really odd that our left and press vilified him but his...

    Is this a good thing for all of us?

    I read the article "LAWSUIT UPDATE: Judge sets trial date for Landstar case" http://www.expeditersonline.com/artman/publish/article_005197.html and wonder if this is a good thing.

    Is this wrong?

    I am listening to the press release of the Iraq report and the one thing that the report says is we have been iraq the same time we have been in Germany. Ah excuse me, we were in Germany as occupying force from 1944 to 1952.

    Okay be honest

    Sorry but I hope this doesn't offend you, doing 1099 work is not a qualifier for business experience. I too am smart, but I don't agree that this is a good thing. I wonder who is really advising you, do you have an accountant? or Lawyer? did you check with them? Don't laugh but do you...

    My Alabama trip

    I haven't had the patients to write about this until now. This is a true story, I mean it happened pretty much as I describe it. Just image you are in a movie, with Forest Gump and Bubba. Forest and Bubba are guards at a steel mill. The scene is a rainy dark and very cold night in mid...

    Okay be honest

    I guess I have a dumb question, how long have you been in this line of work? I mean not to belittle you but I can't see a capital investment of $130K for anything unless you have at least a few years and know the ups and downs. My truck(s) payment is 28% of yours and I had to jump hoops to...

    When to draw a line?

    Leo, Regaurdless what you have them sign, you are still liable for the truck, the operation of the truck and how it is loaded. I for one was really uneasy the other day dropping off where I could not be at the truck while it was unloaded. I could watch through a window but that was it. The...

    Idiots in trucking? Come on Chuck it seems that your statement is a little off there. Well just kidding, I'm messing with you. You said; "I can tell you that as a former state trooper and now a trucker that while there are some bad apples in law enforcement that are ##### sure some real...
