    This will make your blood boil

    What a waste ..... a 9 year old that has no supervision, I think moreso the adults in his life should be punished. Even at 9, he is still a child and can, (could have), been taught his actions are not acceptable to society. Makes one wonder where he "learned" this behavior.

    About LRT Expedite

    I'm the newest moderator here, so I won't speak for EO....but I will speak as a 43 year veteran of trucking and many years of expediting. This thread is just about milked out. I would suggest it be locked, and any further LRT threads be also. I think everyone has had plenty of time to air all...

    IT's all hidden in the numbers from self intrests groups.

    Oregon, Washington and Idaho use NorPass, which records ALL data in each of the ststes. Those times are compared in all three states as a combined effort to utilize the data. I will not answer just how I know this! :rolleyes:

    Advice: Things you can't control.

    Two things ....... "Don't worry about the small things, the big things will take care of themselves." "Worry is interest paid on a debt that is not due yet."

    Shore Power

    I noticed a few of those locations awhile back .... and none of them were designed to provide power to a cargo van. Those "big riggers" get real upset when a parking space is lost to a" less than truck" vehicle. Parking is at a premimum in the truck lot! Perhaps a study to see if it is...

    Lrt

    Because this isn't Burger King and you don't get it your way. You, and others, it seems to me have aired your laundry, (some of it still dirty). It's over .. leave it be, take the advise of many. Retain an attorney .. there is nothing anyone on EO can do to assist you.

    Tractor trailer illegal U turn kills teen

    I'm certain it was not murder, as in "he killed" him, it very well may be vehicular manslaugter. Secondly, I saw stupid acts, (still do), all the time. Being aware of your surroundings, such as seeing a truck blocking the roadway might fall on your shoulders.

    "as-is" warranty

    Take the advise offered above. "As is" means the dealer has zero legal reason to help you at all. It's nice they are making the good faith effort. ECM's can, and do, go out for no reason at all!

    Child Support

    Well, for me .. I never once flinched over those child support payments. They are my children, and I was obligated ...... if times were rough, I just dug a little deeper. I also provided them with healthcare coverage, and supplied many of their school supplies, and somehow I felt it still was...

    Child Support

    Not knowing where you live, the laws of each state are different. IN Ohio the support was mandated by the court, after a consoultation between me and the ex wife. The amount was required to be deducted from my taxable income and was required to be sent to the court, (by the entity you earned the...

    Double fatal straight truck crash in downtown Indy

    As many people that have been killed in that intersection I do not know why they have not redisigned it with flyovers for the connections.

    What can I deduct if I drive for an owner?

    Attending seminars, trade shows, etc are always deductible. It's why corporations fly folks to paradise spots for such events. Big write off! I took a cruise with Truckin Bozo some years ago, was a partial deduction, because he had several onboard seminars with trucking folks.

    James. I'm not sure where you got your stats. But may I assure you, my friend, there is a lot more to life than scoring high on some test provided by a student of an ivy leauge institution that percieves intellegent as being able to add 1+1 and get 2. The truckers I have met over the years...

    Guess who may be the next one? 8 Year Old Jonny Mizzone - Flint Hill Special - Sleepy Man Banjo Boys - YouTube The reason they have such a name, that banjo picker was to small to hold the banjo when he started, so he lay back, closed his eyes, and picked away! Here is the only video of him I...
