In my expedite nap I dreamed of going west of Ontario for the first time...

Thanks. I was set on the 4 cyl, now I have the longer lasting 6 back in the race. Maybe by retirement I'll decide :p

:popcorn:

I've had a hand calculated 26+ over two tanks of back to back 50-55 mph Keep an eye on the rearview if you try this

The big names are only doing FTL tractor for now.

I guess I'm that predictable aren't I Dunno, but I'll probably change my mind a hundred more times :p

A backhaul. Sitting at the Cornwall J till I get over the shock Sorry, can't call it a backhaul it pays $17 less than the hazmat I just dropped, that's full rate

Thanks Basically you're confirming my own thoughts. But paying for it

And whoever set off that firecracker after I loaded explosives - you suck! (Damn right I pulled over and checked)

Couldn't have said it better, FlyingVan! Incidentally I've been playing with KeepTruckin for HOS. I've dropped my idea of moving up in size of truck. Waiting 3 hours to get loaded (like today) won't get any better (likely worse) and I need to be able to get home in an emergency situation. It...

Marc's Mushrooms I'm thinkin the magic kind...

So much for avoiding inspection. When translated, I'm heading to the "arsenal " or "armory" Directly into the building where what looks like 40 police cars are waiting :rolleyes:

TIL my company is authorized to carry explosives and firearms. I might be updating my vehicle. It's becoming a full time side job to maintain standards. And if I was an inspector, I'd be giving my vintage sprinter the once over...

More hazmat. I now have no plans to do any "independent" work Keep it coming...

Trucking before my time (before my father's time) You can see how everything started in these rare pics...worth a watch, and try and imagine living in a slower era...

Nobody will be saving on commercial insurance. Thank a trucker. The amount of high profile accidents going on over the past year or two is insane. I've been following on youtube and trucking websites. While entertaining to watch as a youtube video, the real human costs and accompanying...

That's my experience, the AOC (aircraft on ground) means don't go sightseeing until unloaded, but the rates are fine My 2 weeks pay came in, back to making my entire sprinter purchase price every month (paid 2900 US april 2016) No its not busy, I just had 3 very good runs

Just a question - does air freight go cheap in the US? I keep seeing references to it

If you're willing to hit the bricks and find your own shippers, totally different ballgame. I don't know if I've ever met an expediter that did that, they all try and get rich off the "load boards"

I lived. Hazmat was well packaged in a large crate. Hazmat was not however at a location with a ramp. I steered the front of a 1600 lb skid and had to lift it off my wheelwell when it got stuck. Then proceeded to sleep for 15 hours after I got home and unwound with some youtube hazmat videos...
