I have a question since I have finally seen it put in print. There is a post on here asking if a wife can go in the truck even though she does not have CDL's. I hear people say this all the time. CDL's. I have been in this business a while now, been in trucking of some sort for many years, talk...

I want to put my 23 cents in here on the signiture line and experience. As I stated somewhere else on here, I do see a benefit to this and as I read the posts from others I see where it makes no difference. My feeling is that a lot of the business questions posted on here can be answered by...

I want to apoligize to a couple of Panther Cargo Van drivers. They had to do a cross dock last night and as it turns out it was right where I parked one of my trucks. I held them up for about an hour would be my guess. By the time I got dressed drove over there and got the frozen thing to start...

As I asked the other day about the HUT sticker, I now have a further question. I have another truck which is running and will be dropping in Cincinnati Monday morning. She will then come here at which time I will put all her new permits on the truck for 2005. Will she have any trouble at...

To the Staff, I see all is locked up again. I would like the real answer to the question. Is this for press releases and Advertising? THawk made a good point before that thread was locked. I have asked the question before and am still wondering. I have two trucks and have nothing at all to...

Quick one here. I just met one of truck about an hour ago to put on the new permits and give him new cab card etc. The company sent everything but a new HUT sticker. Now all the paperwork is now in the truck. I just looked through the envelope for my other truck and there is no HUT sticker in...

Many of you know or saw that I was looking for help to get a truck in for a valve adjustment. I have been trying for weeks. I have asked around and I have tried to do this everywhere the truck has been and even in my home town. No luck. I went to see Frank Bauer at FYDA In Cincinnati. Told him...

I am sure everyone gets a little uneasy when they are pulling up to the scale. Am I the one? Is this my day to go around back? When we see those cars on the roads no matter how clean we are it makes you just hair nervous, if even only for a second. Well one thing to keep in mind and that is the...

I am wondering if anyone has ever had an accident where AIG was the insurance handeling claim. One of my trucks was hit by a CRST truck and AIG is the insurance company. I have been trying to get my check from them since October. I continue to get the old checks in the mail talk. I am just...

Whatever happened to the idea of generating the list of good and not so good places to do business with. Tom Robertson kicked off the idea and we all got pumped up about it. I have some great places to add and I can offer one horrible and a few so so places. How about an update on this. RaceMan...

Well, I got my way and things were not censored on another post and thread on here and since they were not I was personally attacked. I am still not sure why I deserved the attack but it brough everything to a locked up hault. Normally this is where a person says I am sorry to another. I am not...

I had hoped to go with handle but thanks to someone who uses their name as opposed to a handle and they throw others names aound in slander notes, mine too is open for all to see. That being the case let me introduce myself. My name is Shawn, I am a fleet owner with Express-1. I recently sold...

Last night got rough on here and that most likely left some bad tastes here and there. I want to say that although I do not agree with yanking posts and most likely never will, I do agree there are times to step in and tell folks to redirect the questions or responses, take them off line etc...

Someone once said on here that they used Truck Copilot as the GPS system. I am interested in getting this and I am far from a computer dude. Can someone tell me if I already have a laptop what do I have to buy for this work other than the software. It looks like there are a number of things that...

Does anyone know of a website for junk yard trucks? What I am looking for is a place to buy some specific parts off of junked trucks. I had a place in northern Ohio and have lost it. Some of the stuff I can find on ebay but I would love a website that I could do some searching. I am looking for...

In the past few days myself and others have posted topics about helping each other. Good service, bad service, helping others on the road side and so on. This is all fantastic stuff and I hope we do work as one big team. I also look back over the last few weeks and there was much talk about how...

As many of us have gone back and forth on this service topic it has made me see another need and something I just want to say. We all work for different companies and owners but we are all in the same business. We all get hurt in our wallets here and there. We can all learn from each other like...

There is a great POST under Trucktalk. It was put on by Tom and has to do with Expedited truck service locations. I am not sure if anyone else does this but I keep a list for my drivers of good and bad repair shops. Who to call when in need of a favor. Who to call that you can trust with a big...

This may be better suited for the newbies area but based on recent topics, I am guessing a lot of newbies are reading this area as well. If you want to move it I understand. Today was the last straw for me. I have to speak out. I have noticed many folks in staright trucks do not seem to know how...

Any advice will be taken right to heart. I have had a number of trucks between ground and expediting. My daughter and husband of bought my ground units and I am left with two starights in expediting. I think we all know two is a bad number. Due to some major medical issues and some big repair...
