    Chevy 2500 Extened 4.8L VS Chevy 10' Cutaway Supreme, MPG, Load Cap. & Gen Questions

    Re: Chevy 2500 Extened 4.8L VS Chevy 10' Cutaway Supreme, MPG, Load Cap. & Gen Questi A 2500 pound payload with a 3500 extended would be more realistic. By the time you add flooring, insulation, E-track, driver, fuel, bed, a couple of auxiliary batteries, clothing, toothbrush, other essentials...

    Need Help Finding Straps to Buy

    There is a niche market of the transportation industry called expedite. Expedite carriers provide emergency, door to door, exclusive use surface and air transportation. I'm sure one of these expediter types could get you your straps by Monday, for a price!

    Old enough to do the crime, but too old to do the time?

    Delbert Huber, 82 years old pleaded guilty to murder. While not as old as Mary Ella Hixon, I thought this link was worth posting for Mr. Huber's mugshot alone. He's quick to the finish, cause he eats his spinach. 82-year-old pleads guilty to murder on Belgrade farm - TwinCities.com

    Ryan asked for federal help as he championed cuts

    I was just expanding on Ragman's example of hypocrisy, but making it more relevant to us as expediters. I find being both an ardent environmentalist and an expediter is not only hypocritical, but completely at odds with each other. How can a person that is involved in one of the most...

    Ryan asked for federal help as he championed cuts

    Kinda like preaching about global warming and environmental responsibility all while being an expediter. A big part of being in Congress is to bring home the bacon. That's just the way the system is set up. Had Ryan not hauled truckloads of money back to Wisconsin we wouldn't be discussing...

    Chevy 2500 Extened 4.8L VS Chevy 10' Cutaway Supreme, MPG, Load Cap. & Gen Questions

    Re: Chevy 2500 Extened 4.8L VS Chevy 10' Cutaway Supreme, MPG, Load Cap. & Gen Questi In my opinion neither vehicle is very good for expediting. If you want a standard cargo van, go for the Chevy 3500 extended, it offers a 9600 pound GVWR vs. 7300 pound GVWR for the 2500. Higher GVWR...

    Abandoned

    I have been towed twice while under load. The first time was the result of a deer collision. I was leased to Con-Way Now and hit a deer enroute to a swap in Kansas City. I called dispatch. They got a wrecker from Des Moines, about 50 miles away to tow me 3 miles to a truck stop. The team I...

    Attention, attention, someone has hacked into layoutshooters E.O. account and/or stolen his identity. This person is wearing a LOS suit and is posing as LOS. Exhibit A: It is a well documented fact that LOS has stated that TV shows are not real. Who but a LOS imposter would post a reference...
