    700 wlw and bubba bo!

    Unless I miss my guess, and I think I'm right on the money ... EO is a "for profit" operation. Should EO provide free advertising to, say, Landstar, or Load 1? I know that is why Truck,Net failed, they begged for favors, but hardly ever returned them. The folks here at EO seem to have the...

    "Squirrel" has one foucs .... MONEY! That's what they pay him for, (in comissions) .... some of you may remember RJ Taylor, and "Ol Blue". A 1951 Kenworth that appeared for many years at all the major truck shows. Usually working with law enforcement, to promote both safety and understanding...

    Expeditor business + second business?

    It should be of no concern to your carrier what you do when not busy with them. Unless, of course, you are using time you should be resting. Get ya a nap, go see others, no biggie. And why even mention it to them, you tell them everytime ya go to Wal-Mart?

    If you wish to get my attention on the radio, try xm Patriot channel, or "Prime Country" ... it about all I listen too. I lost interest in am radio way back when Steve's daddy was doing the overnight show.

    Who takes the least out of your check??

    Here I go again .... it's not about miles, (deductions), it's about money! Who puts the most IN my settlement, the fact there may be a few deductions is simply a cost of doing business. That said, any company that seems to be making up their losses from MY revenue is not one I wish to be...

    New Sprinter

    High idle option is almost mandatory, if you choose to idle it at all. Go with the generator and a/c unit .... As for Mercedes vs Freightliner .... no difference, just a name on the hood. Get your service done at a "quick lube" place, find one at home, make sure they have the oil .. (MUST...

    Why am I overheating and losing coolant?

    If it's not on the ground, and not in the oil .... the only other place is it's going out your exhaust. But I'm no mechanic, so I won't try to offer a solution.

    Has anyone seen my van? Oh wait, it's out there in the driveway, as I sit nursing the repair bill. I had one load this week, and it was a shorty .... Something needs to break! My wife is waving her duty weapon at me, wanting to know when da heck I'm getting out of her hair!

    Why are expediting companies always hiring?

    The recruiting budget at Landstar is small, I betcha! It seems, at last count, we have less than 300 units on the road, and they are only accepting select units into the fleet.

    $901.00 .. all better!

    That is exactly the symptoms I had .. one final check for you ... when you pull over to "restart and reset" .. have you even given it fuel while parked, and it sounds like a 4 barrel carb sucking air? I also had fuel pressure sensor codes, but the tech said those most likely came for the ECM...

    $901.00 .. all better!

    I paid cash, the dealer, (Stoops), is going to present it to warranty, I had the complaint, (verified), back when it had 94,000 miles on it.
