    An open question to owners of unmarked van companies.

    It's OK. He can do that. It's different when he does it. I just find it hilarious that someone can read or hear a term, come up with their own personal definition for it, and think that's the one and only definition that's valid, and that any other definition that gets used is merely someone...

    An open question to owners of unmarked van companies.

    So the question becomes, why don't you have your name or the name of your business on the van? Doing so states intent, purpose and pride in your business.

    An open question to owners of unmarked van companies.

    You left out straight trucks. It's straight trucks AND cargo vans, running on the "down low". You keep wanting to leave out the straight trucks because that doesn't fit your "not a CMV" reasoning. The term refers to both cargo vans and straight trucks. Have all the expedite carriers gotten...

    An open question to owners of unmarked van companies.

    Do you even know what that word means? Apparently not. Conjecture the formation or expression of an opinion or theory without sufficient evidence for proof. I have plenty of proof, having had to change out magnetic signs once or twice a day for a company I once worked for. It got really old...

    An open question to owners of unmarked van companies.

    Plumbers work for a large number of customers, and the plumbers see no need to put the name of each customer on the vehicle while they are working for that particular customer. But they do announce their business and purpose on the side of their vehicle. Vans who drive for multiple carriers are...

    An open question to owners of unmarked van companies.

    I agree one hundred percent. It's a bad reflection on the industry, seems almost seedy, unseemly, and doesn't exactly exude professionalism. The perceptions of the Ushippers and the unlettered vans are virtually the same - unprofessional. People have their reasons for running bare, and they will...

    TA Announces Reserve-It Parking

    Is this a poll question, or just rhetorical? In either case, those who are on electronic logs are mostly logging that time.

    Cargo vans/Sprinters not welcome at Flying J in Houston

    Lettered or unlettered shouldn't make a difference, yet to most of the general public it absolutely does, even to their detriment in some cases. An unlettered windowless van is an unknown, and people have a natural fear of the unknown. An unlettered van states 'beware until you know more about...

    Cargo vans/Sprinters not welcome at Flying J in Houston

    Reminiscent of the TA East in Ontario when, for years that I know of, they routinely kicked expediters off the lot. They had their reasons, but one call to corporate to inquire about it and that policy got straightened out real quick.

    TA Announces Reserve-It Parking

    If drivers are spending 2 1/2 hours looking for parking and they want to spend money to alleviate that problem, they should spend their money on a CB.

    Freedom at work

    No, I think people should stand up for themselves. I think they should stand by their convictions. I believe "shall not be infringed" should mean precisely that, and that every single gun control law is an absolute infringement on the right to keep and bear arms. I don't believe that someone...

    Freedom at work

    A girl is running from her crazed ex-boyfriend who is trying to kill her. He's wearing a hockey goalie's mask and weidling a Boy Scout's hatchet. He catches her, but she rips out of her clothes and gets away, temporarily slowing him down by kicking him in the nuts. He loses track of her as she...

    Beeeeecuz not everybody is a helicopter parent? Because from about 4th grade on most kids are perfectly capable of being home alone for a few hours after school?

    I dunno. Often when I'm making food I'm thinking about sex. Then again, when I'm having sex I often think about food. Ever eat something and think, "OMG this is better than sex!" ? Ever in the middle of sex think, "OMG this is almost as good as chocolate!"? A wacka wacka
