Zane, Just remember "all things are possible with God". He definately has your back and the gifts and talents He has given you, along with the crud He has helped you overcome, will inspire others. Stay awesome and stay in touch!

Will definately be at the expo, I think I am bringing watermelon to the cook-out! Freight will get handled, got one of my drivers that will deadhead to it, if nessessary. But if your interested in a 450 mile cargo van run let me know...

You're a beautiful, beautiful man, OVM :D

My van is sitting near Denver. If no one wants it, I have access to another van and may very well do that!

Looking for a van or sprinter owner in the state of Michigan that runs for multiple carriers. I have a load in Michigan that needs coverage on Monday, the driver scheduled for this load is having mechanical issues. Send me a PM with your contact info and we will work out the details. Thanks...

Wow, busy, busy, busy... Looking forward to the Expo so I can take a break!

Only Straights that run under their own authority can get loads from multipe brokers, load boards etc. I don't know of any carriers that would allow a straight to run for multiple carriers because of compliance issues, they are usually unders one companies insurance etc...

Ok, I have been praying about this and let's just do it. I will try and get the details worked out soon, it's only two weeks away.

umm...uhhh..... uhh uhhh....ummm....(sniff) welll....geez.....uhhhh...ooooo.(scratch) hmmmm....uhhh...yeppers....ummmm (beltch) uhhh...ummm...thanks...bye

Nah, my skin is pretty thick. If I was easily offended I would have stopped reading EO months ago. It's all good....:)

Love the response was hoping to stay away from theological discussions in the General Forum or it will get moved. I will respond to this post in detail, in the appropriate forum this evening then post a link to it here. I understand your post but disagree that God is not concerned about every...

Will give you a summary, can't be on EO much today. Got loads to book! A Blessing is basically prayer and speaking life, health, prosperity, peace and joy over a thing, place or person/people. Anytime people come together in agreement, seeking God it is a good thing. Purpose is to aknowlege...

Each year there are large gatherings of bikers that gather for the Blessing of the Bikes. Wouldn't it be cool at the Expo to have a short Blessing of the Trucks? Maybe right before the Cook Out or something? If anyone has any suggestions on how to get this done, this please let me know. I will...

I agree as a driver you have to have a plan and stick to it. Drivers have insurance, maintenance and repair costs, replacement costs and of course fuel costs. A good goal is that if you are working in July you are working to pay September or even Octobers expenses but still budget like your...

Thanks, You Rock, Rocketman...

I look at companies like Eclipse, which was one of my favorite companies to run for. Last I knew, they factored about everything. They do a pretty large volume of business for being such a young company. The money that comes in goes right back out to their drivers and dispatchers first. They are...

I agree that drivers do need to be protected. The best protection is doing your research before running loads for any carrier. Talk to other drivers, search EO, ask the tough questions from people at the company, then hold them to it. If they don't pay when and how they say they will, STOP...

We are approaching things a bit differently. Our drivers actually tell us what they want for the rate of any given load, then we bid accordingly. We actually do work together, our drivers are not employees, they are business people and we try to help each other accomplish goals for the benefit...

Really, it is not that people run for multiple carriers, it's that that current expediting bid board software hasn't yet adjusted to the market by grouping vin or license plate numbers for available trucks. That would show an accurate count of truck availabilty. Many carriers have requested that...

I agree that it is ok to disagree, if we all agreed about everything, it would be kinda boring....I do agree about the 55 to 60 cents leaves no room for profit.
