    Thinking About It

    If you are already a otr driver .. why not consider a used class 8 tractor .... it will cost you less than a new 1 ton, and give hundreds of time better service. I was leased to Hot Shot Express for years. The truck above was my old Roberts Express truck I had converted to a tractor.

    Two questions about the new board ..

    Color is really critical. For those of us with some degree of color blindness, (me), when guru's decide "this is it", they may be wrong for a lot of the viewers. Case in point, DeLorme and their versions past 2007, I can't see the data worth a hoot! I called and asked them if, in future...

    Two questions about the new board ..

    I disagree with all of you that wish to use a different version. (See, two can't agree!). I love the fact it is personalized for EO ..... and the different splashes of red, etc, make it a bit more cheerful. And I never did have an issue with staying logged in, I signed in when there were no...

    expediting: passion or necessity

    I had many other life experiences I could draw upon also ... but I chose trucking. That was in 1969, and I still have the wheels turning. Sidenote: I began trucking as a local moving van driver, loading in the morning and delivering in the afternoon in the Washington, D.C area, then off to...
