    Just to vent a little

    OK, before we run off in the direction of freedom of speech, I'm sure this was written 'tongue in cheek' and was just venting frustration. However, Leo's right also that some people look for excuses. That being said, I've moved it to the loading dock! Dreamer Forums Administrator...

    Goal Oriented Expediting

    I think the key in this debate is to keep the right balance of what CAN be accomplished under the right circumstances, and what probably will be accomplished. As Phil said, I'm sure there are those who CAN be a millionaire in 20 years, but as Dave and others said, we need to make sure people...

    Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome for Truckers?

    I am reposting here a post made at Truckme.com by one of our moderators, Wildbill (not the one who used to post here). I felt there was a great deal of truth to what he had to say, and asked his permission to repost. Dreamer Forums Administrator -------------- Post Traumatic Stress...

    How things have changed in this Business

    I think the biggest change is the info availible. Back then, there was no sites to go get info on expediting. I'd never heard of it before I started driving for a friend. In those days, you found out about it by CB and talking to guys in the truck stop. Now, you can get the pros and cons...

    Illegal U-turn or vehicular homicide??

    I've come over hills and around curves to find trucks across the road in CLEAR weather, and it's a 'pucker factor #5' moment. The worst is flatbeds. You just can't see them well from the side. That's one of the reasons I like to see trucks with extra lights down the side. When pulling out...

    I need massive feedback from long-time cargo van d

    RE: I need massive feedback from long-time cargo v Kangar0085, I have to disagree with you there. On a regular vehicle, 100,000 is a lot of miles. But, if a van has been used as Expedite, and well maintained, 100,000 is simply less than 2 years worth of miles. My last van, a Ford E350, had...
