Does one not think that the Golden Goose flew its route? If you were gona do this it should have been back in September the rush should be about done just back to regular business now.

I enjoy spending time comming on here but I feel for what turned out to be joke but looks like I made a complete idiot out of myself so I apoligize to all for my over eagerness to add my expierences and comments to this site. Thank you all for your support and I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas.

Let me be the first to dig my embarrassing rear out of the sand cause the way I read it was exactly this, crummy drivers who do not care to make anymore than $800 a month and than call it quits and to bad for the owner but don't take my truck back the one he does not own and promised the owner...

C&M just signed a brand new one on. They all said I would be running down to the dealer to trade this one in. ( I think not) I do like it alot. Just my opinion one nice lookin truck.

A post just came up regarding marketing yourself. Run an add in the local paper and also all the tiny itty bitty papers will run freight $75.00 per load, says he does about $600.00 a day local business. Almost can't wait to get home and try it (just the add) to see how well it would work. I...

I cannot answer on ComData as I refused it at my last carrier and my current one does not believe in it which is fine by me. But another answer may be PDCA which is Flying J they have got a very good deal for us drivers. No fees for deposites No Atm fees at there places Free balance inquires...

I believe I am correct by saying this. Your wife will not need a CDL to drive a Van. A team will do much better but you better know what that is first many of Van drivers here on this site have voiced their anger and concern about this industry. Many of C & D truck drivers only voice their...

Ace said it as good as anybody ever could or would. Focus on your plan use his questions as a guide to start ones research. This is a very hard business, not that the business is so difficult but all of the things you are away from at home becomes stressfull out here much much more than I...

You asked so I can answer but before I do, you are really throwing me for a loop here. First you want to move to AZ than your considering getting rid of one of the nicest trucks I have ever seen and going deep into debt? After what you told me you paid for th T-300 that was one of the best...

As long as it weather tight your good to haul Expedited freight. I saw one in March in Grand Rapids Michigan. The truck was not in as good as condition as the Curtain was but it was weather tight according to the driver no rain or snow got in. His down side was the tracks would freeze up so...

I have had the opportunity to talk with two different tractor trailer drivers and here was there response. One said he did not care for them was from Quebec traction in snow and rain poor and no increase in mpg as promised. The other one was on a one month old CFC those bright red well kept...

RE: A good Christmas story to prove truckers have Anytime a waitress is working the midnight shift it ain't because she wants to. Please tip these people accordingly as they probably have a story like this one in their lives. If do not get anther chance to say it youall have a Very Merry...

Later in week is better than trying to get out on M or Tues reason being is Nations is centered there and the drivers all want to come home F and leave on M or Tues. I live there and compete with their frieght and get alot of their freight (thank you) South Carolina is in my opinion better...

I am writing this right now from Vegas, left Phoenix with a load and here I sit. I would feel much more confident if I were in Indy. Your a solo time is against you and me right now. You live in the most desierable Expediting place to move to 0. You should'nt have any trouble selling that...

Honda King Let me get this straight, you have to be home every two weeks ( I personaly thank you for serving our country) but your an Expeditor, did you not think this would hamper your opportunity to make a living in this industry? There had to be better choices to make a living at with two...

I find no difference in the winter blend #2 from GA to MN but you better keep it treated when its gona get below 10F or you better be in a Motel cause its gona GELL and your gona Freeze. Small price to pay considering, tow defrost fuel additives time lost load lost sleep lost reputation lost...

The source can only be from the factory. There is no way J is gona get cought even by accident or any reputable fueling co. like Loves or Pilot, the fine would be enormous for them. I had posted on this earlier regarding the poor winter mileage, it will begin to jell at about 10F and will...

Vipra I agree with you to a point. When you spend this kind of $ you expect things to work with out putting more of your own hard earned $ into something thats suppost to make you $ for your efforts not back into the tool. Danny- get a sleeper screen like the ones between the sleepers to keep...
