I am VERY attached to my toys. The boats, the guns, the decoys, the fishing rods, reels etc. ARE the reason I work. To pay for and use toys. Life without toys is just waiting to die. Life without fun, isn't. I work because I have too. I play to live.

My "STUFF" is worth more than my truck is. Throwing it out would not be liberating, it would be a waste of money. I wish I did not have THIS house but I will always have one. I like the stability and the storage. I also don't intend to expedite for the rest of my life and plan on staying near my...

I don't think people understand what is going on with the DHPL. As it starts to show the complaints will start. Not that it will do any good, it never does.

Yep, will be checking it before it goes into the shop.

I am more than aware of what the government is up to. The roads are a wonderful example of government in action. Much of the tax dollars that is paid by motorists and truckers is spent on other things than roads and bridges. We see the result of government in action quite clearly. ALL of...

There is no way to justify making rules that will not make trucking safer and, in many cases, make operations more dangerous. The government put on a dog and pony show pretending to listen to drivers and then did exactly what they had planned on doing from day one. Ferro is joke as are the new...

Those things are disgusting. I can't believe that people in Europe and the British Isles are SO in love with them. YUCK!!

Why leave? :confused: GREAT fishing up that way! All kinds of it. There is Grand Traverse Bay, Lake Michigan, LOTS of small inland lakes and MILES of rivers and streams. No point is leaving there! :D

At the house. Had a second kick butt week! Grabbed a load that brought us within 200 miles of the house, good thing too. Our blower fan gave out and it is FAR too hot to run without air. So at least we are home while repairs are made. Cheaper than a motel by far. I did check the fuse on the...

Leaving in a minute for our pick up in ON, heading for MD. Then tomorrow we pick up in VA to WI.

It is individual. If I had been driving and stopped that long I would be asleep. We also often don't have that much time available. If I am sleeping and my wife stops I will wake up. It will make our operation more dangerous, by far. We were MUCH MUCH safer with the 5 and 5. Not that anyone in...

I would LOVE to hear an explanation of why we are now restricted to only one 34 hour reset. Does having two mean your too rested? The entire mess makes not a bit of sense.

I agree. There is no safety benefit to anything in the new HOS regulations. If anything, they make our operation more dangerous. I wonder what the real motivation for these new regulations are? Who bought who out and for what purpose? Sure wish I had the means to find and follow that money trail.
