Why does Swamp think it is only English Lady that has issues with him? As for me, he is more than welcome to depart, and I'll gladly open the door for him, so it does not hit him in the rear on the way out.

Yep, sun comes up at 10am, and sets at 2pm ... if you are living in one of those south facing hollers .... I was. Appalachia is a great place for a childhood to be spent. Many of life's lessons are learned early on.

WvCourier, keep it in context ..... Those wrecker/service trucks dont work as cheaply as expediters. Who should have paid the cost of those service calls, if not the drivers?

This was their first post on Jan 29, 2013.

If this is a genuine plea for help, it is a sad commentary on trip planning. The picture appears to be of a young couple, perhaps a couple that are not prepared to deal with the realities.

And don't you forget it.

BestPass ..... it uses the safety rating of the company you are leased to.

They cant require it Zorry, but in Landstar's case .... "Do you wish us to enter into this contract with you? A condition of that is is workers comp, OR, OCC Health"

"Brevity is the soul of wit" ... so someone once said.

"In the blink of an eye" ..... it appears the t/t driver was distracted ..... pay attention people!

Good luck Hazmat .... but before you go ..... that first picture .... is it the grease from the McDonalds in those barrels? :rolleyes:

Pilot, and now FlyingJ, have always had the best coffee on the interstate, they even say so on their tanker trucks! ;)

Sort of like who "outted" Valerie Plame? So called "sources" seldom are ..... the very reason one must verify the news and information ya digest.

Justin, I proposed just this set up to Landstar, they seemed to think it was "doable", it would just be classified as "D" unit. Even though it would have a minimum of 3 axles and could possibly haul some heavier freight. I seriously considered doing it with the tractor I had, but decided to do...

Did I miss something? The original post was concerning the qualifications, or the lack thereof, of a professor. As for me, I have been of the belief for many years the institute's of higher learning are indeed very liberal. The fact this professor may have given such instructions is not...

I can't believe I just spent an hour reading this nonsense. But only because I have moderator status, not that I was interested in the subject. The references to various posters, named or not, seem to flame it up ..... if you agree with a poster, and place kudo's, that's ok? But if you disagree...

4,000 miles in a truck with a ham radio blaring, if you are not an operator, might be punishment!

Isn't that always the way it is? If I already have an opinion, why would I spend hours having someone tell me I am wrong? Some information from a different source is always a good thing, but it's like watching "The Big Bang Theory" ... a worthless comedy program my wife watches all the time...

And that's why expediters exist! As for the $600.00 ...... that would have not applied had he had the repair performed. Even a Freightliner dealer can't work for free. Anyway you're right, he should have had the repairs done.

Window vans are easy to buy, Ford has all those "program" vehicles, from car rentals, etc. Price is good! I had one myself with Roberts, My solution was to paint the windows black, on the indside. (It looked good from the outside). Then I cut plywood and covered the glass to protect it from...
