    it's october where are you at!

    Got to Dayton, actually the J in Vandalia, last night about 22:00. Got a great load early afternoon today from just north of Vandalia to just outside of Omaha NE. Over $1.16 for all miles including the 20 mile DH. That's after a long weekend run and a shorty on Monday, and then 2 shorties...

    Phones Cell phone carriers

    Your right about the wifi hot spot. To get that option I would need a more expensive plan. I can use my phone for almost everything, and step into a Denny's or McD's if I need to use my laptop or tablet. Thanks for the info!

    There was no mention of any line access charge! This is a current promotion being offered. I haven't made the switch yet and haven't signed any contract. Thanks for the warning, I'll be sure to ask and I'll be very clear that my contract matches what I'm being told. Thanks

    I know this has been talked about before, but I'm looking for reassurance before making a change. I've had AT&T cell service for over 10 years now. Verizon has a deal where they'll give me $200 trade in for my old IPhone 4. That's means a free IPhone 6! If I upgrade to the 64 gig it's a $99...

    It is Septemeber...where R U?

    Enjoy your little break. I got my home load, so Murray will be looking hard to keep you moving. Good luck, I'm sure you'll have your weekend loads booked very soon. I used my 24 hour break yesterday to hit the Maryland Live Casino. Left there with over $200 more in my wallet. And that's after a...

    It is Septemeber...where R U?

    Made it into downtown DC on time. Drove straight through and of course, no one was there to receive the freight! Sat in the alley and watched the rats running around. Was a dead end alley but at least there were no bodies laying there. Just one homeless guy sleeping on a sheet of cardboard and...

    It is Septemeber...where R U?

    Back in service today. Got a load from Milwaukee going to Washington DC for delivery on 9/11. Better check the freight closely just incase I'm stopped. You know, being in an unmarked van, driving into DC in the early morning hours.

    Generators Inverter or generator

    I only installed one marine battery from Walmart. I've never regretted installing it. I power a TV/DVD set, my Espar, some fluorescent lights, a fan and my rooftop vent. Only using a 500 watt inverter. Never had it go dead in one long night. Died once in Laredo sitting for over 2 days without...

    The dog days of summer: AUGUST!

    At the Detroiter. Not very many vans here today. Surprised! That's probably why I got a good paying load so quickly going to Upper Marlboro MD. Well that and I'm with a very proactive company! Only got here late last night and booked out already.

    Thanks Scott. Always a good time meeting other EO members. Glad we met and had time to talk a while. Enjoyed the conversation, now I'm at the World Famous Detroiter! Hope you get your load early tonight. Drive safe.

    Got my paws on the Ford Transit

    So now that every Ford dealer has a couple sitting on their lots, has anyone ever seen one on the road? Being driven by anyone? Thought they had huge fleet orders, still haven't seen one yet being driven by a consumer.

    The dog days of summer: AUGUST!

    Did you reset your oil life monitor? Read the owners manual or ask at an oil change place how to reset it. On GM vans, you turn on the key, leave the engine off, depress the gas pedal to the floor 3 times within 5 seconds. The oil light will flash several times then go off. Then turn off the...
