    Watch Out

    Bush only was voted in Nov....9/11 was only 10 months later...I'd have to say the attack was planned during the Clinton era. It was going to happen no matter who was elected... I also think 9/11 was selected because of our 911 emergency system...every time someone says call 911 or sees it on...

    How is Express 1 doing as far as teams are concerned

    We are a team with a sprinter @ E-1 and doing just fine. A new person will struggle for awhile to learn where the customers are...so have some back-up money...the learning curve always takes a turn thru the wallet. Good Luck Unit #1585

    Well here we go with the first timer questions!!!

    LDB said.."You can find a position as a solo but it will be more challenging since a team can generate more revenue for an owner in the same truck investment." Be very careful here...unrelated team members(where you split 50/50 with another). Can actually make LESS $$$ then a single driver...

    Its all connected....oil drops the commodity markets are going for a crap...Canada's #1 export to the US is oil..so connect the dots The Loonie drop is good for Canada as it is cheaper for US companies to buy Canadian made goods...The cross border shoppers will now return to Windsor and Niagara...

    According to the Gov website the price of diesel is now only .38 higher then this time last year... Since you Blamed President Bush for the high prices you can start thanking him for the lower price....:rolleyes:
