Your best bet is to have some patience and talk to the people that are doing well and see what they are doing that you aren't. That sounds simple, but there is some value in that thought. Remember, "Rome wasn't built in a day" and like any business, this applies here as well. With being...

You can type the name of the company into the search function and you will be provided with posts that deal with that prospective company. As for obtaining a cdl, it is reasonably cheap for getting a cdl. You can take the written test in your state and then rent a truck to practice in if...

I don't think one could compare a Sterling platform to one offered by Hino. Plain and simple, they aren't the same animal. We have in our fleet as well a class 8 Sterling. It has a 750,000 mile warranty for whatever that is worth. Yes, we bought them from Jon Mosier and would buy another one...

I think the colonel probably ask the most important question. "What are you doing in this business"? Setting rates in your case is much more involved without knowing more than you posted. Do you have your own authority? Do you have the proper vehicle and load insurance? And in what amounts...

There are plenty of decent loads out there, but it does take alittle effort to find them. We avoid the cheap loads but are guilty of double dipping to get a acceptable rate to the truck. Same deal as trying to haul a tractor load with a straight. With some decking and alittle work, it can be...

I think many buy in lots so they have more flexibility with whom they can sell to, thus reducing excessive inventory.

Keep in mind that it is expensive to change companies. Many of the loads you speak of are hauled by all of the major expediters. I would imagine rates and some of the milage is going to be simular. Additionally, I believe they all service the east coast. You sound like you may be better suited...

You get one free for that day. If you do two, then you get charged on the second.

I think the purpose of the first one was more of an introduction and what went on JAN/FEB than a Q & A. The way it was delivered is the Q & A is coming with folks in specific departments. As far a people speaking at the council meeting, you would have to have some limitations so the same...

With regards to Panther If you are taking load advances, then that eliminates any interest in relation to your escrow. Can't say I agree with it, but it is in your contract.

If it was load for load, the straight would have only a slight edge. But........reality says there is a whole lot more freight for a straight than a van.

I am not sure the purpose of this post Phil? Isn't this like asking "who is a good car salesman"? Most is based on reputation in the business.

Gotta be honest, I have never heard of a Hino achieving over 10 to the gallon unless it was going off a cliff. The horsepower derived from that engine with torque less than a regular pickup would make me wonder how mathematically it would be possible to achieve that milage. But....I quess there...

I'm not a political guru, but lets call it like it happened. Going to war with Iraq was voted on based on the information at that time. Hillary, Edwards and other dems voted for this action. Somehow that seems to get overlooked. They came to the same conclusion Bush did looking at the same...

Since it is going on a used one, I would say you have to pay the tax. Another place to call might be OOIDA 800-444-5791

Ok. RM started a new parts facility somewhere around the KC area, and I didn't know if they were one in the same. An additional service place that does decent work is Espar in Detroit.

Unless the truck is to be sold soon, I'm not sure I follow the logic either?

Not sure on Ohio, but in many states they will add the apu at the sales price if the vehicle is new. Based on the provided article, it looks like if you question it, you have a chance of paying.

Certainly a classic

On a side note, is the place in KC the same as RM new warehouse?
