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...

Whats with these carriers? WHY does it take the loss of a major contract before these slackers (sales) to get off their butts and get a "New and Diverse Customer Base"?

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

I believe no matter who is president we will be attacked again...terrorists don't care who's president...

Thats .38 cents not percentage....they'll still have pretty good profits.

1.79 less Leo? Is that your numbers or an overall industry number?

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...

Yup...American users of expedite services can get a Canadian carrier cheaper then say Fedex or Panther to take it to the States...and thats good for you!

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:

So you are saying the country does better economically under a socialism type government?

Sorry Jim..in my haste I omitted the flip side of that equation...your quite right.;)

I've been doing a bit of research....thanks to my wife's input.... Republicans spend and get us into debt then we vote them out and bring in the Dems and the economy gets better BUT they cut the military everyone gets T'd off and then in comes the Repubs...its a repeated process over the last...

I would be more concerned with owner/operator turnover or fleet/owner turnover....if you only look at driver turnover your choice reasoning could be incorrect as some of the driver turnover is due to a crappy owner not the carrier.

Boy don't I know it...someone has to be the referee...or watchdog...enforcer....Its a fine line we tread... I'll be interested in 2 years we can go thru the archives here and compare what is now perceived and what is....

I really do believe that with the security net around North America that we have no one can do much harm....missiles or whatever aren't coming thru our shields...We could stay home and let the others duke it out...

Absolute power, corrupts absolutely ...as the saying goes...

Since there is so many fleet owners...which turnover rate you looking for? Where the truck switches? or the driver? There's a big difference?

Layout, we have had many good discussions BUT this is where I draw the line...Sorry....But the U.S has no right to impose it's way of politics or morality on any other sovereign country. Just because other countries belief differently then we do...IF THEY cross the line then war will be imminent...

I think we'd still be bending over with a Republican President and Republican house... Take their labels off and throw them into a box of GrapeNut Flakes and they all look the same?
