Great debate….. my preference is actually leather. There is nothing like a properly treated, smooth soft leather to sit on. Heated seats are really the best. Just to pass on some knowledge that I picked up through the years. Dirt, sweat, wear all are a problem with cloth and leather seats...

I am not an expert, but I will give you some advice about the class 8. I am planning on getting a class 8 stretched and have done a lot, I mean a lot of research due to my concern of safety. There are just a couple things to remember; The age of the truck is a big factor, the more miles on...

I thought WG is something that you have to prequalify for by having to work for FEXCC for I think 6 or 8 months before you can even be asked to join. I would think that the process would be the same for drivers and owner/operators. Correct me if I am wrong, please.

I am involved with a non-profit fundraiser planning, a raffle. I have posted this question on other forums (not expediting/trucking) to get ideas for prizes. I know that this is not an expediting post, but your input would be appreciated. Here is the raffle situation; there are three prizes...

Aren’t you all lucky tonight, I am going to post two questions on one thread First question In the truck stop today, surrounded by Panther ii drivers, we were discussing generators. One person has a generator and a gas can (DOT approved) in his van, just sitting there in the open. Now here...

Big Guy, Right now I would help you put one together but I have a little too much going on and I am starting to drown. But I would recommend two things; Get business plan pro software to create it. It has many examples built in and the website for Palo Alto software had (it’s been a while)...

Whoa ….Wait there Brian, Let me get the S*** straight, D-C said that “Because DaimlerChrysler dealers are independently owned businesses, they are responsible for addressing concerns directly related to their sales and service activities, as well as their personnel. Although...

RE: Cummings, Duramax or Ford - Which Diesel is Mo Both engines are really good and both have a bunch of mods to get mileage and performance out of them. Both are quiet and both have a proven track record. I have owned several dodge Cummins powered trucks, 93, 97 and a 97.5 24 valve (yes a...

OK I am going to open my big mouth and do some venting here. After reading everything in this thread, sitting on my third day without freight and having a conversation with my dispatcher that really got me pissed off for the second time this week, I have to add something. At this moment I am...

> > > >I had no Idea that you could reclass a Truck. > I was told before I left on the road that you can not load beyond what is on the sticker (GVW) from the manufacture in Michigan, period. they do not have to accept another state's registration of a re-classified vehicle.

OK, there is more security at these plants and distribution centers than at a military base. Look I have to tell you this; they are trying to protect their assets. These record companies/distributors are at war with consumers and want to make sure that every copy of the latest 50 cent CD gets...

Well I think that many states have a law that a company must provide a rest room (of course ADA compliant) if they prepare or serve food. Outside of that, they don’t have to do anything. I ran into this problem a few times, but I always worked something out with the workers, even buying them...
