    Keep Zane off the Olde English and the young English. Malt liquor and machettes are a dangerous mix. Pretty much anything in combination with malt liquor is dangerous.

    I'm considering becoming an owner operator

    If you wait for the price of gas and other maintenance costs to decline, you will never become an O/O. Most carriers have a fuel surcharge in place the should offset the rising cost of fuel. A f.s.c. does nothing to reduce the costs of tires, parts, labor, food etc. What is needed is an...

    Does this sound right to you?

    I've been kicked of this forum a few times, but never for being crabby. I always got the boot for using the "F word". Once I got kicked off for quoting someone who used the "F Word". I don't really use the "F word", but rather a variation. Kinda like how others use the letter "z" instead of...

    Does this sound right to you?

    I was trying to be helpful. Both Dave and Dennis' responses were full of good info. After reading your post #7 it appears you are totally clueless and looking for others to do your homework. Jeez, I sound like some crabby old guy. I've been sick for almost two weeks now with a sinus...

    Does this sound right to you?

    As a fleet owner Davekc probably knows what everything costs, including valve stem caps. I'm sure he could "edit the #'s" for you and he just might. But you should be able to do some simple research and come up with numbers for insurance, tires, oil changes, truck payments, pay to the truck...

    Thanks Dennis. My limited research was pointing in that direction.

    Bye bye 100%

    Yeah, Moot forgot. Moot will certainly try and deal with the fact that OVM is Moot's next door neighbor.

    Bye bye 100%

    Eddie, cut him some slack! He's a Canadian and doesn't have a mastery of the English language. Tarzan often referred to himself in the third person: Tarzan and Cheeta go look for Jane. Bob Dole also referred to himself in the third person: Bob and Cheetah go look for Liddy. Moot go look...

    I found it! Good Jerky!

    The best jerky that I have ever had can be found here:Home McDonald's Meats is located in Clear Lake, Minnesota, about 4 miles north of the Clearwater Truck Plaza on MN 24.

    Transmission

    Either you and I have been very fortunate or some others are overloading and abusing their vans. Roadeater, is your van a 3500? I think maybe the 6.0 in the 3500 might come with a beefier transmission.

    Transmission

    I agree with Scott's disagreement. I have had two Chevys and no transmission problems. My 04 has 587,000 miles on it. I recently replaced the rear seal and it has had a couple of filter and fluid changes. Bullets can't stop it. Rockets can't stop it. We may have to use nuclear force. FZ

    back at it again?

    You've been doing this for 8 years and took an 8 month sabbatical, correct? What do you think has changed in this industry over the past 8 months? You should be asking yourself what company would be best for you!

    Bye bye 100%

    Newt, there is something wrong if you are losing your board position for turning down a load. I'm sure it has been well over a year since Panther did away with that practice, unless they reinstated it for newt sign-ons. You will lose a F.O. for a refusal, but shouldn't drop to the bottom. You...

    Bye bye 100%

    Is 100% Canadien the same as 100% American? What is the conversion rate?

    Bye bye 100%

    Excellent Newt! You are well on your way to embracing and becoming one with stupidity. That first step is the hardest. Next time, instead of refusing the load, first ask for a bonus or a flat rate, especially with minis. Why are you losing your board position for refusing a load? That...
