Being signed on to only one company (soon to change), I don't have knowledge of how other companies operate. I know some have sliding rates, but don't the smaller companies sign on a van for .xx and that's the rate? That's how it is for my company. I've only hauled one load at anything less...

I'm guessing they're talking about CVs, so not DOT# involved.

Reminds me of a gun rights battle in a town I used to live in. There had been a shooting between two carloads of miscreants, both of which pointed the finger at the other and said, "They started it. We were just defending ourselves." In response, the mayor concocted a bill that would outlaw...

That always works for me when the Jehovah's Witnesses come to the door.

The United States by every measure is hanging on by a thread to its First World status. Saddled by debt, engaged in wars on multiple fronts with a rising police state at home, declining economic productivity, and wild currency fluctuations all threaten America's future. The general...

You know, Chef, after having googled and read a page about this revocation and rescission, I find that they use a lot of terminology usually used by people we would call "looney tunes." I'd love to know how this strategy works out for you.

No, wait a minute. So you've got your CDL, and I've always had my physical done by a carrier before starting work. But what if I used to drive a TT, so I had a physical then, then went into a cargo van, then the previous physical expires... Since I'm not driving a compliant vehicle, I...

My first DOT physical ever...the doctor was clearly a company doctor. He was going to shine that light into my ears and nose and wherever else, but forgot it in the other room. "Oh, well..." he said, and pencil-whipped it. I don't know if they've been standardized since this, but I've had...

In one of the trucker mags, I read about a guy who had to get recertified because of a shoulder injury. The PA had him disrobe completely and stand in the middle of the room with his arms out, and then the PA starts examining toward the south. The driver says, "'Scuse me, but my shoulder is up...

Who is ultra right? Everybody has lurched waaaaay left so what used to be ultra left looks like the center now. I can't think of any national politician who could be called "on the right," let alone ULTRA-right.

1) Vans need heat in the winter and AC in the summer. 2) The generator is needed for that. 3) The front lot is where cargo vans park. What's there beyond that to figure out? Being in the front lot doesn't change any of that.
