    Gas Cost vs Rates

    I do agree that supply and demand are certainly in play. In more so on the smaller ones. But there are a few other things in play as well. Many nameless carriers are skimming the FSC. It is just a fact. Since it isn't regulated, they will keep doing it up until those loads start to sit on the...

    First published book on Expediting?

    You chapter six could be a seperate volume by itself depending on how deep you actually go. Mainly because there are so many different ways people operate unless you are just describing from the first person. Might also mention (maybe already planned?) a chapter on maintenance. I am just...

    Lame stream media, AGAIN!

    Can't forget Al Sharpton. Does an hour show on MSNBC yet is a activist down here in Florida claiming he has all the facts and has convicted the guy. How is that possible when the prosecutors don't have them all yet? He must be gathering evidence as he complains,takes photo ops, and marches...

    First published book on Expediting?

    Could be a good read if it is put together in the right way. Same here, good luck on throwing it all together.

    First published book on Expediting?

    I stand corrected as I was unaware of anything really being published as a book. I am aware of a few how to manuals that were being sold but as mentioned, they really offered little value to the reader or potential newbie.

    First published book on Expediting?

    You must be talking about the Rev. As far as someone else writing a book I believe Phil was talking about a expedite history book at one time which would be different than what is presented with this one. Don't really know but I guess a life and times or how I started is out since someone has...

    First published book on Expediting?

    Could be the same people? Should have some experience at this point as that was several years ago if memory serves me correctly.

    First published book on Expediting?

    Linda Yates use to be a expediter driving the "White Tiger" truck. I think they exited the industry many years ago but not sure? Haven't heard that name in quite some time.

    First published book on Expediting?

    Seen an ad in the classifieds for a published book on expediting. Don't know anything about it but it might be a good read for those folks that are interested. Don't really know, but it may be the first published book on expediting. hotshotchronicles - Home

    Any suggestions on lift for pulling a motor

    You are correct in that doing a resleeve is not recommended for the do-it-yourselfer. Still another thought would be to have it pulled and taken to Cat to do the resleeve. They likely are going to send it out anyway. Have to weigh the costs verses a new one. Warranty will be the same. Local...

    Any suggestions on lift for pulling a motor

    Not sure what truck that is in, but unless there is block damage you should be able to resleeve that engine in-frame. If you can get the back piston out, shouldn't be too bad. Would also be considerably cheaper. Also, if the rear seal is leaking because of age, much easier to drop the tranny...

    Are There Any Honest Fleet Owners In The Expediting Business?

    For a prospective new person it is important to understand the terms with that fleet owner and really know what they mean. As mentioned in another thread, reputation is a key factor in finding a good one. Additionally, I would highly advise to seek numbers of current and past drivers. A...

    A tip of the hat to Pat

    The good ones will have the reputation and years of experience and references to indicate their worth. Pat has all those and would be one of a few that I would recommend for someone wanting to drive for the Fed.

    Media "Doesn't " Matters fails to bring down Rush Limbaugh.

    Rush Limbaugh is a high dollar entertainer and a liberal group isn't going to bring him down because he called someone a ":censoredsign:" any more than Crossroads trying to bring down Maher. The difference is Crossroads wasn't dumb enough to try it. As for Limbaugh, they did him a favor as his rating...

    YOUR President

    Don't forget that Obama is installing a new 750k soccer field at gitmo. Found the money in the military budget by cutting health benefits to soldiers and vets.

    Fox Debunks Right-Wing Lies?

    Post#33. But I didn't call you by name but it was directed at you since it was your commentary. I do agree on the C-Span, not as much on PBS as they have changed over the last several years. Just my opinion, but the Moyers hour isn't too bad. Thanks for responding
