    Phil made the jump

    As a team, with WG experience, he may be able to move directly into AA&E .. they do have some might good rates in that division. Even in Sprinter vans .... I would love to do it myself, but I do not run team ...

    The Sinking Of The Titantic - FDCC

    If Landstar has a "C" truck, I have never seen one, nor do any show up in available equipment searches. But we do get "C" rates for some OD van loads. What we do have is a "SuperB", one that might be a Sprinter, a CargoMaxx, or even an old Ryder dual wheel "City Van". If you know of any...

    Gastric Bypass a possible cure for diabetes?

    It is my understanding, once you become Type I, insulin dependent, you will never again NOT need insulin as your body is not producing any. So such surgery would be of little value. As a Type II, loosing weight is always the prefered method, along with exercise. It seems bypass surgery simply...

    Nationwide fishing license

    Actually, a few years back, there was a buzz about to have an additional endorsement for your CDL to allow nationwide fishing ... It never went anywhere though. Seems to me that a national permit might be much like an IFTA account. No need to keep track of the miles, but for a small sum...

    white's truckstop

    There was never a real Petro in Salina ..... it was a Petro II, and was a franchise. Makes me wonder if White's might also be a franchise, and retain some of it's known qualities ..... like fried bologna and eggs with biscuits and gravy!

    Do straight trucks have to stop at weigh stations

    Well ...... maybe. Some states have signage qualfying WHO they wish to stop, such as, "ALL TRUCKS OVER 8,000 POUNDS, REGISTERED WEIGHT". A "C" truck might be able to legally pass by .... If you are subject to stopping, PrePass will be the best investment you ever made. Or get BestPass...
