Yup. A max of 30% is the number to shoot for, and between 20%-30% is the number to be expected in cargo van expediting. That would include deadhead to the pickups, and well as deadhead after the delivery to go to a place to wait for another load. If you are consistently above 30%, then you are...

Yeah, "Authority" is short for "DOT Authority".

No, no, no. It's the same people that told him: There were at LEAST two other gunman involved, it is being covered up. There is a MASSIVE cover-up under way to PROTECT those who ALLOWED this to happen. The orders for both the cover-up AND the original protection of this RADICAL MUSLIM PIG...

Actually, they're not my little smoke and mirror charts, nor are they Pew's little smoke and mirror charts, they are Nielsen's little smoke and mirror charts. The second and third charts, true enough, only show ABC, CBS and NBC, so they are limiting in scope. I include them here to show the...

Some of it depends. The three main criteria for post-accident testing are: Human Fatality Bodily injury with immediate medical treatment away from scene Disabling damage to any motor vehicle requiring tow away In the first case, Human Fatality, a post-accident test must be performed by the...

Vans don't have to pay to park there. I've never seen a lot lizard there. But, for various reasons, most van expediters won't go there anymore, and that's why I do - no van riff-raff, free parking and free WiFi.

While that's certainly true, I'm still trying to figure out what that has to do with van parking at the Flying J. :confused:

Well, yeah, there's that, but to compound the problem is that every laid off auto worker thinks they can drive an expedited cargo van.

Sorry about that, I was very unclear. The points are for diesel only, and you don't get the points for gas. But you DO get the showers for gas or diesel purchases.

Thanks. It's happen way more times than I would have thought.

Expediters still park at the Detroiter, but not as many because not many think you still can. A lot of them park at the old AlumaBunk (which is now a cross-dock facility). At the Detroiter, you have to go back there with the Big Trucks. The guy at the Toll Booth can tell you, but you go...

Some info on the new UltraONE card... Read the Official Rules PDF for the details, but some things to keep in mind. As always, you don't get fuel points for more than 2 fuel purchases in a 24 hour period. Also, the program is for diesel only, not gas. On the regular UltraONE (non-expediter...

One interesting thing about Electoral Votes is, those votes can actually be cast by the electors for whomever they want. When we vote for the president and vice-president, we're not actually voting for them, but rather for the "electors" representing a state, who are the authorized...

That's all true, assuming the cargo van driver has a CDL. If the cargo van driver doesn't have a CDL, then the DOT does not require a physical, nor do they require the carrier to require it. In cases of non-CDL cargo van drivers, most carriers will nonetheless require a physical for two main...

That's not entirely accurate. Evening News viewership for the nightly news television shows, both broadcast and cable, has declined by roughly one million viewers per year for the last 30 years. Television News Viewership, All News Shows, All Networks Including Cable 1980-2006 Breakdown...

I dunno. A one-on-one video chat is at least a little more intimate than a text message. :D

When political climates change, and Blue States become Red States, are they going to change their election laws back again to compensate for it? Massachusetts is a real hoot when it comes to this stuff. They used to have it where the governor could appoint an open seat for the US Senate, but...

"Consider the source" has always been important, but it's even more critical to know the source now that anyone with a computer can distribute news. There are just a snotload of "news" Websites that are not news Websites at all, but are sites posing as news organizations to further their own...

Sorry, Eddie. Didn't know you were there and didn't see this in time. Don't hesitate to knock or give me a call. I had to scoot to go pick up a load, anyway, tho.
