What? Greg, man, calm down, take a pill. The driver was not a kid, he was an adult. Or is 18 and 19 too young to drive these days? What is there to be outraged about? He was speeding. That's stupid, but is it really and truly outrageous? I was passed just yesterday by someone going at least 80...

Actually, he did: President Signs Energy Policy Act

Don't confuse them with the truth. They can't handle the truth. The truth gets in their way. For example, it's easier to be mad at McCain for not supporting the expanded educational and health benefits of the GI Bill than it is to find the truth in why he is against it. Never mind the fact...

Just copy and paste the URL.

No, Obama will protect us.

No misunderstanding. Please don't give it a second thought. It's all good. :)

The homophobia? Puhleeze. Just because you don't enthusiastically embrace homosexuality doesn't mean you're a homophobe. Contrary to popular belief, and many a fervent wish, homophobia, just like any other phobia, is an unreasonable or irrational fear of something, in this case the unreasonable...

I have been taking a closer look at Bolt, like to keep informed in case I want to make a move and all that. But, I'm getting the information on the new FSC program contained within the new contracts they've been sending out to everyone. After looking at the new program, and talking with some...

Explain to me how NASA finding life elsewhere will disprove the existence of God? People of true faith should never fear anything that science may learn, because it cannot contradict the God who created the phenomena in the first place. There can be no incompatibility between Christian faith...

The loads boards are a 5-day average. They are updated once a day, overnight I think. The load count could go up if a 0, 1 or 2 load day from 5 days ago drops off the average counts, and the new 5 days worth of loads is more. Also, just because dood didn't get loaded out doesn't mean there...

I'm with Phil on this one. 100% A customer tracking their freight while on my truck, by and large, doesn't affect me in the least, and when it does affect me its not in any negative way. If it gives the customer peace of mind, that's OK by me. On certain critical shipments from a couple of...

There are definitely too many vans with Panther, and a lot of it is Panther's own fault. They push hard for fleet owners, rather than owner/operators. When you're driving a cargo van for an owner, splitting things 60/40, you're gonna turn down pretty much everything under about 300 miles, (some...

The kiss that started it all...

I stand by what I said. If you don't have the experience, you cannot have the common sense. Everything you just used up there is experience-based. If you re-read what I have written on this subject, in this and other threads, you will see many suggestions of how these boards should be designed...

No one, least of all me, expects the company to position trucks on top of the freight every time, or even a high percentage of the time, as historical averages for a particular location can be relied upon only just so far with respect to future loads. But, let's get real with why these board...

I promise you, Gay Marriage has nothing to do with pedophilia or slavery. Nothing.

Like RLENT's, my foil windshield covering isn't one of the cheap ones from Wal Mart. It's nearly $100. Those cheap ones probably do need to be on the outside, cause they'll let too much heat in. Mine, newp. It's a thermal barrier that came directly out of NASA. Not gonna put that one on the...

Nope. The only thing I was kidding about was that you'll love the new boards. You won't. :) "If it's true, it will be a huge impediment for me to overcome." Might not be as bad as you think. "When I am at home I often run to the store or post office or doing errands in my van. Are you...

No, not if you know where to be. What would you say is average fsc in vans? I'd say about .35 Does Panther still force a swap on pro exceeding 1000 miles? No, they force it on 900 miles or 16 hours, whichever comes first. They now have vans on a 16 hour duty cycle. Move you van 1 mile and...

I delivered there the other day, Friday afternoon. Well, more closer Leo's neck of the woods, in Fresno. Sat there over the weekend at the J in beautiful downtown Baytown, then Monday night got a good one out to TN, paid very well. Then got one to Jackson, MS, slept there for a day, then...
