That's right, Rich. I know that there's a Citgo at the Ft. Drum Plaza, just south of Yeehaw Junction. I think Chavez is going to find out the US money has been very good for his country....till now. Drive Safe! Jeff

Did you see that 7-11 stores announced last week that they were dropping Citgo as their fuel supplier? That is going to make a big impact right there. Drive Safe! Jeff

Well said, Bob. Drive Safe! Jeff

Several years ago, I was coming out of Van Nuys, CA, which is in the Valley. It was August, and the temp was about 110 in the early afternoon. Came just twenty miles south down the hill on the 405 freeway to Santa Monica, only to find that fog had rolled in and the temps were in the upper 50s...

Storms, I would definitely look into driving for an owner first if you are truly interested in this. You won't have the up front investment. You already have a "B" license, so talk to a recruiter or two or three and let them help you find a quality owner. You will know in a few weeks or...

Yes Cheri. Haha. I think I had sat on that page for a bit. When I replied, you had beat me to the punch. *pats you on back* Drive Safe! Jeff

Last time I saw gorillas, they were inside a cage. Sounds like this one belongs there for awhile as well.:D

Hey Cheri. Washington Mutual has been real good to me. They are still relatively new to me, but they have shined more than once for me. I moved my business account to them about 16 months ago. They did so well with that, that I moved my personal account there as well. I had been will a...

Very cool, man. I like how you have a bed that works for freight on board, but converts to be more spacious with no freight. Kudos! Drive Safe! Jeff

Ok. Most of the major carriers offer some sort of expedited service to their customers already. Old Dominion, Yellow, Roadway, and ABF are among those whom I know offer this, whether it be an air freighted order, or exclusive truck. It is not new for them to do this. But almost all of it is...

Hahaha. Too funny. My dad said that when he was in the army some 50 years ago, that there was a restaurant where he was stationed that had that same fig leafed dude in the ladies room. Except this one had a bell attached to it. Drive Safe! Jeff

Dunno Moot. The cats might have to wear brown socks though.... Drive Safe! Jeff

Greg, Of course you realize that I jest in my comparison. Drive Safe! Jeff

Seems like I remember in the corporate world, usually awards are given in lew of: 1. An earned raise in pay, 2. An earned bonus, 3. A deserved promotion, or 4. They can't find a title to give you. Just a humorous thought. Drive Safe! Jeff

Hey Dave. Good to see you rolling again. And, it's good to see you posting. Keep having fun out there. Drive Safe! Jeff

Well, this has been discussed on here, but I think I'll say it as a good reminder for everyone, myself included: Anytime you change companies, be prepared, because normally it takes a little bit to learn their system. Any O/O will tell you that a change will slow down your earnings...

How many miles are on your van? I just had a problem with losing power on my Ford. It didn't shut it down, but it wouldn't accelerate very well. Engine light came on. Turned out, the catalytic converter's honey comb was coming loose and clogged the exhaust. Drive Safe! Jeff

I don't specifically have a Sprinter, but do run a cargo van. Any chance you got some bad gas? A drop of water hitting the fuel filter will cause you to lose power on most vehicles. Engine is hot, so the water in the fuel line evaporates within a few mintues. Truck restarts fine. Also, how...

I think in this case, as well as the case of Uship, that the people who are shipping have NO idea how much it actually costs to ship something professionally. Usually they figure that they'll have someone that is already going there and can give them an extra $20 to drop off their bedroom and...
