Oh calm down! Not getting married or anything great like that. I met Hooligan yesterday at one of my stops. I hear he and Lawrence are kind of related. Well at least their dogs are. :0 Hooligan good to meet you and enjoyed talking. I actually run into P2 Van and straight trucks all the time at...

On Thursday I saw a white Kenworth Express1 truck pull into a BP here in Sharonville, Ohio and from across the street, in my E1 shirt and hat I waved. I am sure you are still wondering who I am. Well if you are an EO member you now know. I also saw a PantherII truck coming through Cincinnati on...

I got to meet Flamemerc today at one of my pickups. He was driving a Good Looking silver truck with big red E1 on it. He was not having a great night which I will let him share but it was nice to meet him. I also enjoyed a few moments on the chat last night until geo said he had to go and I got...

I pulled in to our terminal this morning at 1:30. There was a PantherII truck and another one on a tow truck. As I backed in and did my thing they dropped the one off the hook. The PII driver then started the truck and backed it up to dock to unload. Hmmmmm? After getting out of my truck and...

As you all know by now, I left E1 and am running for Priority here in town. I was doing a combination of longer runs with some 100 and 200 mile runs and getting home often. I also ran bulk mail on weekends. About two weeks ago I was offered a dedicated run which ends up being about 193 miles a...

I got home last night from my run and there on the porch was my CoPilot Truck GPS. Man I am like a kid with a new Big Wheel. I can not wait to use it in the truck. I installed it this morning but without a signal here in the house have not done much with it yet. It is very cool though. I will...

I saw a POST that was positive about a carrier the other day and it was so refreshing I thought I would share a story with a positive tone as well. Many of you know my background and also know that I recently left Express-1. I first just pulled one truck out of E1 and put it on with a small...

I will start this and if it takes off, Great! If not some of you may see the humor I saw and seem to always see. Awhile back there was a thread about Odd things we have carried. How about funny things we see? I love humor and I see humor in everything. If I did not, wow, who knows. I will...

I mentioned in a POST once that when I needed decals removed I went to Freightliner. I also said how good it was. Well, as many of you know, I have left Express-1 and am selling the last remaining truck I had there. To put it on the lot I had to have decals removed. I was watching Spiffy easily...

One day this past week I had to stop in a clinic to get my recert of DOT physical. I love doing that. I only wish it could be more often. In any case, while I was waiting for my turn, I could not help but notice something odd. Four Mexican drivers that could not read the form and required...

owns the FedEx Bright yellow Western Star. They too spent Easter running south. I stopped at the first Rest Stop going south into NC on I40 and this baby pulled in. Male and Female drivers. Well a Female driver with a Male oil checker from what I saw. :) I was in a hurry and did not have a...

As you regulars know, I have been trying to decide what to do as far as trucks go. Try to keep building or get back to just one truck and just enjoy it as an owner operator. I am going to stay in my truck and just be an owner operator and enjoy the business. My driver in my other truck informed...

There is an Amber Alert. It is issued out of Brown County Ohio. It involves three little girls. They are thought to be in a vehicle with plate 3GT244. Last I saw they were thought to be headed towards Oak Hills, West Virgina possibly. That is as much as I know right now. These are very young...

I have posted twice about CB usage on the highway. I want to say again that I understand why most have them turned off. I have some recent experiences that almost made me run a young man down and whip is A@@. Well that is exactly why you have them off. Ok I know that. I do want to tell you of...

I see some more folks have left Express-1. I have a pretty strong question for these folks and I hope you will take the time to drop me a personal note if you do not feel like it should be left on here. My correct email is [email protected]. This is very important to me as I am at a...

This is a Post just to vent and to let all know who watch ebay I am placing the item on there in a few minutes if you may wish to bid. I use MicroSoft Streets and Maps in my truck on my LapTop. This weekend it just quit getting a satelite signal so my little truck on the screen was not moving as...

Now be careful and do not answer that title question like you really want too. :) I have a number of computers here at home for business reasons and I have a laptop that is in my truck. The only time I can use the web is while here at home. I know many of you do this from the road and I am...

I have brought this up before without success but do wish to run it up the pole one more time. I know many folks do not have the CB on due to what it has become and I do understand. I would like to say it would be helpful in heavy traffic for folks to have these on as many times traffic is...
