    Truckstops

    LOL!! No, more like playing devils advocate kind of. I really do think that every driver measures value in MANY different ways. I just don't like seeing/hearing phrases that almost transfer the value of a trucks revenue over to the value of the human being behind the wheel. Semi drivers...

    What? I'm not following your grammatical train here. Please explain a little more.

    T&K Trucking

    No. The pie is split up too many times relying on all brokered loads. Especially with the brokers that get their freight from the air freight movers - the Pilots and Cavaliers of the freight world. It's a good 30-50% that can make the difference in survival or doom for many carriers IMHO.

    Cargo Vans - What is your straight through limit?

    There's a reason the Safety & Compliance Manager doesn't sit in the dispatch office from the hours of 14:00-18:00.

    The District of Columbia is not a state.

    Does anyone do expediting part time? Yes, that sounds insane, but hear me out

    Look for local courier companies in your area. Being in Laredo for 2-3 days trying to get a load out wont help your current work.

    New Nexus 7 Tablet W/Wireless Charging

    Maybe it works like a PowerMat? I used to have 2 of them. One on my office desk and one in my Tahoe. I had it plugged up to a small inverter. I was in and out of my office so much I worried about wearing out the charger plug. They weren't cheap, at about $50 each, but they were super...

    As I pull up to fuel at Pilot NOW, I would not be if TA, Petro or Love's gave a crap about people that make a living burning gasoline. I did 125,000+ miles in the past year, plus a personal vehicle, and burned about 7,500 gallons of gas just in my CV. I'm guessing, because I used to shop it hard...

    T&K Trucking

    Yep. It's best utilized as a full solution software. All but payables, I think. Carriers need their own freight. Whether its enough or not. And I can't haul it all, like the crates with plane wings in them, so THAT'S where Sylectus has helped a ton. Customer happy, truck happy, carrier happy...

    T&K Trucking

    Wasn't that why "Alliance Connect" got popular for a few years? After '08 I think everyone had to really watch ROI on even Connect, but it only took "us" about two loads a month (brokered either way) to pay for it. But that was before the per-truck charges and rate increases. And there's a WORLD...

    I agree, Red. My brother in law (Houston based trucker) scoffs and makes puking sounds when in town and it comes up.

    Lawrence or one of the vets could answer, but yeah it's probably a file size or format issue.

    Food

    Sone people will never acquire a taste for it. It's barely chili. Liking it is NOT liking chili. Liking it is liking Skyline. I don't even call it chili. It's the un-chili. I like it. I just don't seek it out over many other places.
