    Gearing up for the Expedite Expo

    I know my favorite times at the MATS show was always out back, enjoying a smoke and having the chance to speak with folks outside the booth. While the booth in the central point, much must be accomplished there, and goals must be met. Casual time is best .. such as the lounge at Executive West...

    An Old Noob

    Swinging beef was never outlawed ... but it is more convient and easier to manage when cyropacked in a vaccum bag. Jewish protocol for "Kosher" will not allow, (to my knowledge) for it to be any other waythan hanging, so the blood drain can continue, and it can be "blessed" if the time exceeds...

    An Old Noob

    One thing I can tell you, being I hauled meat also in the 70's. If you are looking for the "romance of the road, do the Sprinter. No log books, no restrictions. If you are looking for profit, seems many feel the straight truck is the way to go. Though I do profit with my Sprinter and my...

    do use pc miler or something else

    I use Street Atlas, by DeLorme ... the 2007 version. Yea, it has few roads missing, but I truly love the format of it. The "new and improved" versions have default colors I do NOT like. And I let the Rand McNally GPS guide me on the local streets since it has updated info. I like the ability...

    Many years ago, when the popular radardector was "Fuzzbuster".... I topped the ridge on Hwy 54 into the range, that thing never stopped beeping until I left the valley! Lot of radar sites on that range!

    The Perfect Transportation Company

    First of all, I do believe the PERFECT company does exist, and I'm leased to them. Best: No central dispatch, with high school graduates manning computer screens that know NOTHING of trucking that is not fed to them from that magical device. If you are thinking of starting your own business...

    Reminder about the new Tanker endorsement.

    If those totes are hauled on a flatbed, exposed to the view of enforcers, no tank endorsement, or placarding, is needed. If they are hauled inside a closed trailer/straight truck/van, the vehicle MUST be placarded, and the driver MUST have a tanker endorsement. Landstar and I went round and...

    I take it that white box hiding BEHIND "forum" and IN FRONT of "what's new" is supposed to be a search box? Amyway, on my browser it is misplaced .... All I can see of "Whats New?" is the ? mark ...

    Reminder about the new Tanker endorsement.

    It's more complicated than that .... Dry freight drivers may need tank truck endorsement So a simple tote, in the back of a Sprinter, (empty or loaded), REQUIRES the operator have a tank endorsement on the CDL. And placards on the vehicle. I know, have already experienced that, and I do have...
