Simple phone call solves all. Apparently the load board needs a reason when you're off more than 7 days and he thinks it looks bad. Back in service (thought I was already???)

Yep further angry texts clarified his position. Although he laid out his expenses; with me paying fuel, insurance, license, tolls, and maintenance I'd swap with him in a heartbeat...i have a feeling he's a frustrated new business owner that forgets the costs of having an independent on the lease...

Pm me details if you like. I just sent a several page long text about what was on my mind to the company owner. Will see what he thought soon enough :D

Always thinking. Just can't seem to justify the extra hassle until HOS is forced on vans or I get a co driver

Well I just want to make sure there's nothing negative going on with the boards...i read it simply as van is OOS not "danger we're going to kick you out" but I dunno...

Hey general question. Owner is flipping out about my van being OOS on the boards greater than 7 days so its flagged red. WTH does that mean? And does it matter? Are we not allowed to take more than 7 days off as "independent contractors"

Likely much cooler than I was with only a fantastic fan Do they come in charcoal? Never mind, I'll check the configurator...I'm still looking to replace the Sprinter with a Promaster, seems like the perfect size and weight capacity

Argh, missed it. Don't forget to tune in daily folks We need ban alerts:p Apologize for veering from the threads intent, carry on

Washington Post wants my money to read these hard hitting pieces. I get alerts from Google, copy the headline and paste it to read it somewhere else for free

How about MikeDamone? A year of posts, he buys a nissan finally, I go on vacation and he's not a member? Did I miss a popcorn moment like I saw in the Jan thread?

Just wanted to say thanks for the snow reports...I hate news sites, I like reading EO!

Might I suggest a generator for your a/c :D :pokepoke: love the color, keep us updated

I'll be expecting a report on inside temp from Laredo in July ;) (Very nice though, congrats)

He's a former driver too. How quickly they forget

Carrier whining I've been out of service for 15 days. Guess I'm back on. -16, wait for glow plug light, brmmm. Trucks ready, I'm kinda not

Hmm. In Ontario, I can earn 47,888 in dividend income and pay no taxes. So why has nobody told me this before? Incorporation time maybe

Not any longer, but thank you. Anybody who knows a good CPA in the GTA I'm ready to dump all my problems in his lap. My current fantasy is to incorportate in Nevada and take 55c per mile, owe nothing, and bring the money back across through a dividend at 15% tax :p (In case of a problem I can...

I guess you got lucky. But I didn't pay for 17 years previous so it might be a case of not being on their radar before.

Yes. GOOD one being the key word. My last CPA screwed my taxes so badly I owe 26,000 on 40,000 income. 4 years later, its yet to be corrected and they're still garnishing wages. So that my friends is why every so often I babble on these forums about taxes. Surprisingly not too many Canadians...

Ok. Keep it coming.:mad: Any Canadians willing to chime in? How do you structure your taxes? A van by design is a "motor vehicle" so disqualified for per km deduction. A van is less than 11,000 kg so does not qualify as a "long haul truck" for those deductions (like meals). Not being an...
