The way New York does it is totally stewpid!!! The last time I went to Brooklyn I followed another truck out. He told me not to worry, he knew the best way out. I was going under bridges that were marked way lower than my box. My rear end puckered up tighter than Nancy Pelosi's face!

Happy birthday, eh... Have some back bacon and Labatts on me!

Good post Charles. What I find funny is how I can go for quite a while with things going smooth, then I'll have 2 or 3 days where I seem to attract every idiot on the road. The suggestion in that other thread that more regs will make us safer is just laughable.

42k is pretty good money. If your looking to improve on that, don't even consider a cargo van. It's doable in a straight, but no guarantee. If your not unhappy doing what you're doing for 42k, you may want to consider sticking with it. Do you get benefits on top of that? If so, I'd say it's a no...

Currently running from Jersey to Chicago Heights for Monday morning. I'll probably hang at the Monee Petro Monday unless pre-dispatched.

When I entered this biz 11 years ago, 2 things were commonly said about cargo vans. 1, that being subject to HOS was going to happen at any time, and 2, that they were going to disappear from the industry. Neither of these things has happened. With HOS having been through a major change, it...

While GPS users know that the units can be stupid once in a while, my 465 earned a "most stupid thing ever" award this past Saturday. Going through Detroit southbound on 75, it wanted me to exit on Clark Street, and then get right back on 75. I'm not making this up!

Guido, if it doesn't have a converter, then it's been touched. 5" seems like overkill to me as well. Your no where near running that engine truly hard, such as heavy towing. Those are the guys that get a benefit from that kind of modification.

Whew... O.K.... I just need to take a deep breath, I'm still hyperventilating a bit. Thanks to this thread, I just met Moot. That's right, the Mootster!! The Mootilater! Mooty toot toot! As you may imagine, it was pretty exciting. He even let me hold his clipboard and sandwich while he...

LOL... Well said!

Pilot, Priceville, Al.

I don't think there should be any arbitrary, one size fits all rule. Leave it up to the individual, and whatever a particular load may call for. When dispatched at 45 mph, I was willing to run as many miles as they could come up with. There will be sleep time built in to a 45 mph dispatch. If...

I watched it on Fox News. It was about as exciting as "Al Capone's Vault."

I've never had a flu shot and don't plan to start now.

Currently @ Toledo Freightliner. Deer are vile and despicable creatures. I propose we engage in mass venicide to rid the world of these oversize rodents.

Bloomsburg, Pa. TA Sorry to hear about your dog Jack. I agree Benzoid, they should live much longer.

Indy J....

Beaverdam J. Lots of time to kill til I deliver in Plainfield, In. Mon. morning.

Welcome to the new month. I'm in West Point, Ms.

Could there be more shame in the world than to be a Redskin right now? I don't think so... Well, maybe if you were a convicted pedophile... No, I'm gonna go with being a redskin.
